Corrosion is one of the most persistent threats to ageing structures, especially where structural steel sits embedded within masonry or concrete, hidden from view until damage is already underway. At Clan Contracting, we specialise in identifying and controlling corrosion before it compromises structural integrity, using both protective treatment and advanced monitored systems.
Featured Projects
- Rylands Building (Grade II listed, Manchester, ~100 years old) — Installed an Impressed Current Cathodic Protection (ICCP) system using a LoCem anode network across 32 controllable zones, connected to the AchillesICP platform for real-time remote monitoring, protecting the structure without altering its external appearance
- Mineral Road Rail Bridge (130 years old, 7-year maintenance contract with Tarmac) — Corrosion repairs and structural strengthening combining new steel beam installation, protective RC collars, and anti-graffiti coatings
Our Approach
- Standard repairs — targeted breakout and reinforcement treatment, anti-corrosion priming, protective coatings
- Full cathodic protection systems — for long-term, monitored control where durability matters most
- Heritage-sensitive intervention — minimising invasive future inspection on protected assets
Who This Matters For
- Bridges
- Car parks
- Listed buildings
- Steel-framed properties
