Leading Specialists in Confined Space Services

At Hydro Cleansing, we’ve been supplying confined space rescue cover for over 23 years, and we’re proud to have an impeccable safety record during this time.

Our rescue team have encountered some of the most hostile environments, such as the Thames Sewerage system. The system was constructed between 1859 and 1865, which can be a navigational challenge for modern methods and equipment. Our team were commissioned to carry out confined space cleaning and rescue cover for The Thames Tidway Scheme. Our work included a pre-work survey, followed by works to connect the old with the new sewers.

The confined space team here at Hydro Cleansing also regularly enter and clean the sewerage tanks for many large shipping and passenger vessels across the UK and Northern France. This work is essential for enabling seamless cargo movements.
