About Our Company:
Founded in 2014 by President Josh Emmanuel and Vice President Carl Lea-Wilson, our company was built on a foundation of expertise, dedication, and a shared passion for corrosion prevention. With years of experience working together at a previous corrosion company, Josh and Carl brought their knowledge and leadership to create a company that prioritizes technical excellence and client satisfaction.
Both founders hold CP-4 AMPP CP-Specialist certifications, demonstrating their deep expertise in corrosion prevention and cathodic protection. Their technical knowledge and leadership have been instrumental in shaping a company that delivers reliable, high-quality corrosion prevention solutions. Over the years, their commitment to excellence has earned the trust of industry leaders, including Crimson Pipeline, Chevron, Phillips 66, SoCal Gas, and multiple water districts.
As of 2025, we employ 15 full-time team members, including seven AMPP-certified technicians. Our commitment to excellence extends beyond our clients—our workplace culture is built on support, growth, and continuous learning. We encourage our employees to push their limits, expand their expertise, and gain valuable hands-on skills, ensuring we remain at the forefront of the corrosion industry.
At National Corrosion, we don’t just prevent corrosion—we build long-term partnerships, deliver top-tier solutions, and invest in the future of our team and industry.
