MBA Service is Comprehensive Certified Trusted

Mumford-Bjorkman Associates provides specialized inspection and consulting services to support the construction, maintenance, and rehabilitation of water storage systems. With decades of experience, a focus on industry standards, and a commitment to quality, MBA offers reliable solutions tailored to your project’s specific needs.

Welding Inspection

MBA provides weld inspection during the construction of new tanks and during the rehabilitation of existing tanks. Our weld inspection services are geared toward meeting the expectations set forth in the American Water Works Association (AWWA) D100 manual for Welded Carbon Steel Tanks for Water Storage. When our weld inspectors are on-site, they verify proper fit-ups, ensure welding procedures are performed acceptably, and confirm that post-weld cleanup is conducted to remove debris and surface contaminants.

Paint Inspection

Paint inspection services are the core and prominent service that MBA provides. Through extensive in-house training and certification through NACE and SSPC (now united as AMPP), our field inspectors are well prepared to oversee surface preparation and painting activities. Our inspectors verify that proper surface preparation is achieved, ambient temperatures are acceptable for application, uniform paint application and thickness are maintained, and proper curing of the coating is completed. Full-time paint inspection is the best insurance for your coating project.

Underwater Inspection

MBA has a long history of providing underwater inspection in the potable water market. Going back to the development and adoption of AWWA C652 disinfection standards for underwater inspections, MBA has been at the forefront of diving and remotely operated vehicle (ROV) inspections in potable water. Currently, MBA provides underwater inspections using ROVs only. Diving and dive clean-out operations are performed by others, but MBA can connect clients with trusted partners to ensure safe operations and adherence to proper procedures.

Cellular Inspection

Water towers are a great host for the colocation of antennas and microwave dishes that serve the wireless communication industry. Our expertise with water tank structures, coupled with our team of certified inspectors, ensures that the installation of antennas and hardware components does not damage your tank. We inspect areas you cannot see from the ground and coordinate equipment relocations during tank maintenance projects.
