It’s not hard to see why people are choosing concrete water tanks in Keilor.
Concrete tanks have so much going for them. And when you have limited space, which can be the case in suburban Keilor, concrete is a durable and cost effective option.
Another reason these trusty tanks are hitting the right chord for city residents is their suitability for underground use. If you own a small house block with little spare room, being able to hide your tank from view underground is a real plus. That way you get to harvest and safely store rainwater underground in a concrete tank without having to impact your precious space above ground. And, let’s face it, every square foot of yard counts when there’s not much to go around.
At R & F Building Industries we’ve installed many concrete water tanks to happy clients across the state. We supply concrete tanks from leading Aussie manufacturer Taylex Tanks and they’re built to last. These tanks come in a range of sizes and are suitable for underground, in-ground and above-ground applications.
Whether you want a tank to hold 31,500 litres or 5000 litres, our experienced team at R & F Building Industries can help. And we know you’re onto a winner with concrete water tanks in Keilor.
These tanks will stand the test of time – and pretty much everything you throw at them including fire and ground movement. And because concrete provides a dark and cool environment for your stored water, it helps limit algal growth too.
It’s also worth noting that Taylex provides light trafficable lids that are certified by an engineer for all their underground tanks.
So if you want to add a rainwater tank to your Keilor property, then concrete is well worth considering. Just think what you can do with a free store of rainwater. You could use it for your garden and for household functions including flushing toilets and washing laundry. And by reducing reliance on mains water supply, you’re helping save a precious community resource.
