Clayburn Services Ltd

Refractory damage, corrosion, and failed linings can push a plant into unplanned downtime. Clayburn Services Ltd works from Edmonton as part of Thorpe Plant Maintenance and Engineering, with refractory and specialty maintenance services for industrial facilities across North America.

We handle refractory work as part of a broader plant maintenance scope. Field needs can include robotic demolition, insulation, scaffolding, coatings, fireproofing, abrasive blasting, and heat tracing when a repair area has to be opened, prepared, rebuilt, and protected.

Our service model ties engineering, manufacturing, and field installation together. Thorpe states more than 70 years of experience in corrosion, refractory, scaffolding and insulation, and specialty mechanical services across North America.

Clayburn began in Abbotsford, British Columbia, and later moved from clay pipe manufacturing into full-service refractory supply and install work. Today, our Edmonton team plans refractory and related specialty service scopes around access, demolition method, heat exposure, and plant maintenance timing.
