Where tanks hide

Many homes and small commercial buildings in the Northeast, Mid-Atlantic and Pacific Northwest were heated with oil. When owners converted to gas, tanks were often left in the ground. A leaking tank can mean costly cleanup and disclosure issues.

Pair it with a Phase I

Buying or refinancing? Most lenders start with a Phase I ESA ($2,450 flat, about 10 days). We can add oil tank sweep to the same site visit to save you time.

Questions

How long does an oil tank sweep take?

Most residential and small commercial sweeps take an hour or two on site, with a written report shortly after.
