VESTAS

Geckotech Solutions Ltd offers a full inspection, repair and maintenance service to operators and owners of wind turbines. Our trained technicians can access the turbines safely, carrying out inspection and repair of composite elements.  Every client is ensured of the very highest of standards of both safety and service through our use of experienced multi-disciplined teams.

We have provided various services to Vestas over recent years, on several sites across the UK; from Wick in the north to Avon in the South.

The scope of work on Vestas V80 wind turbines has encompassed access to towers and blades to carry out a variety of tasks, from blade repair to the accessing of internal and external surfaces of towers to undertake cleaning and paint repair works, including removal of rust.  We have also been called upon to carry out surveys and subsequent repair of paint systems on turbines damaged during construction or transportation, with the survey work requiring access to each level to locate, mark up and record damage to paint systems.

The means of access and primary safe system of work has been determined by the scope of each project; either via industrial rope access, MEWP (Mobile Elevated Working Platform) or, on occasion, working at ground level.
