Paso Robles Tank, Inc.

P aso Robles Tank, Inc., is a full service tank contractor that designs, fabricates, erects and coats both carbon and stainless steel storage tanks across the United States. Projects include everything from a 50,000 cubic foot, low-pressure gas holder for the City of San Jose, California, to two 7.9 million gallon welded steel reservoirs for the Orange County Water District in California. Like many companies, Paso Robles Tank saw activity nearly grind to a halt at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. But soon people realized that work had to continue, and Paso Robles Tank was ready to meet their needs. “I think for a while there, probably three to six months, everything was kind of delayed just because people didn’t know what happened, they didn’t know how to react, what this was going to bring, if it was going to be an issue for them to have to continue with projects, and whether they would get support from inspection companies,” recalls Shane Wombles, President of Paso Robles Tank. “But the world continued for the essential services — and providing potable water or petroleum products tanks is an essential service. So, even in this crazy time we live in, we still have to move things and people still need potable water, and wastewater still has to be dealt with, and not everyone can just live off the grid so to speak.” The pandemic has created new challenges for Paso Robles Tank. Work spaces had to be reconfigured and tools were cleaned more Adapting to a ‘crazy time’ , Inc.
