"Well after having oil heat for my old historical house for 55 years, I decided to get rid of the carbon fuel Removing the oil tank was the second phase of conversion. It was a solid iron above ground, but under back porch. Probably 90 years old. Solid. Pre- removal planning was seamless. Written estimate and basic contract safety rules sent in a timely manner from JS TANK REMOVAL. Day was hot day. Two men came. They went to work operating like a well oiled machine. ( excuse the pun)! They worked through the day, in the hottest part of the sunny day. I supplied lots of ice water to keep them hydrated. They have done hundreds of these removals and it was flawless. I Know the tank was heavy and old. . Solid iron. They siphoned off full tank of oil into big vats on their truck so no oil fumes or oil was visible. Not a drop or dribble anywhere to be seen. I had no idea it was going to be such a clean operation. They knew their business. Photographs sent to building/ compliance inspectors of DC GOV. Everything done by removers was transparent with environmental laws and with DC APPROVALS If removing an ancient oil tank and iron pipes can be thought of as enjoyable, then that was it!! So glad this was done by a great knowledgeable team. Or, it certainly could have been the other way. A nightmarish experience. It was a great job. So, everything completed. No mess. No smell. Holes in brick were cemented where thin pipes and feeds went to burner from tank. All gone. They swept up. Got their check for company and off they went into the alley. The job was done. No stress. A beautiful job by JS TANK REMOVAL. Later that week I followed up with office to say thanks. Also followed up with my new gas heat contractor, JM PLUMBING AND HEATING, who gave referral. I thanked them as well for their recommendations. One excellent heating contractor who advised me about the tank removal company. So happy with my new excellent modern gas system. The tank removal finished that project perfectly."

"We had an above ground oil tank removed from the basement. The staff were professional. They came in and had the project done within a few hours which included removing the remaining oil, cutting the tank and removing the remaining lines. The oil smell was intense, but they had a spray or something that they used to minimize the smell. We are very pleased with the services."

"We would Highly Recommend A & C Plumbing.They did an extraordinary job and really went the extra mile for us. We had to replace our main service line. And they were able to come the day after the estimate to do the work, and get the proper permits, which was great since we didn't have any water. They spent the entire day getting a monster of a job done, in the scorching heat. There was a hand dug trench 3ft deep 6 ft across for the main service line, replaced the ancient galvanized main service line, and a whole new up to code system installed inside. So, they go to tie the house into the city line and there's a leak on the city side too. They called it in to DPW and finish their part, and we had water (we hadn't for over 2 days at that point). A & C gave us the DPW work order number and we all think it's going to get taken care of, right.....ð ¤ For the next 2 weeks DPW says they are investigating and to be patient. Then they tell us it's our fault and the leak is on our side, which we knew wasn't correct, and  contacted A & C. We called DPW, A& C called DPW, we emailed, and A &C emailed. We finally got an inspector to really investigate, then DPW came to fix it, twice, after first visit we had no water. Anthony came to the second DPW service call to talk to the crew, supervisor and inspector, to make sure everything was ok and to see if they had any questions for him, then he went to his other job site. When DPW tied the house back to the water main they had clogged the line (working in an open muddy pit) and told me to call the plumber. I called Anthony (A &C), informed him of everything going on. When he finished the job he was working he came back to the house, he cleared out the traps he just installed we Finally had Water! A & C Plumbing are a small local business that really stuck with us and helped us with a difficult time with the water company. Anthony came back when we really needed him to Personally talk with the DPW work crew, supervisors, and inspectors. Competitive rates, Quality work and a Warranty!"

"Our office needed a replacement water heater installed. Heil was very responsive to my multiple emails and calls. We did have to pay an additional fee of $250 to expedite the replacement due to the water heater not being currently available in their personal inventory. So far, we are pleased with the replacement. The price paid was almost a third of what other companies estimated."

"Great job. Very professional. Excellent work. One of the few plumbers who install a water preassurizer. Not only did they remove and discard the old one they also took their shoes off to protect my carpet and cleaned up after they were done. I highly recommend them."

"There was something that was in the drain so that when water was going in one direction it would be fine but if there there was something down the disposal it would flip it and the it would have a clog and they cleared that. They were straight forward, they got the job done proficiently and professionally."

FAQs for water or fuel tank remove projects in Baltimore, MD

There are several reasons why you might need to remove an oil tank. In some areas, local regulations require tanks to be removed after a certain period. Leaking tanks can pose hazards to drinking water and the environment. Plus, many municipalities won't allow property sales until an inspection confirms the oil tank is safe.

One option for disposing of an oil tank is to have your removal pro take it to a dismantling yard or salvage yard for recycling. If a salvage yard isn’t an option, you can contact a local landfill or a local oil tank removal service for help finding a proper disposal location for your tank. Typically, you’ll need to show there’s no sludge or residue in the tank.

A leaking oil tank reveals itself through increased energy bills and a noticeable oily sheen on water surfaces, which signals a malfunction. You may also experience strong oil odors and observe stained grass and deteriorating vegetation near your property. These clear warning signs demand immediate professional evaluation to protect the environment and secure your property’s safety.

Yes, states mandate soil testing during oil tank removal to detect hazardous pollutants that harm the environment. This testing confirms that no soil contamination exists. Certified specialists collect soil samples to meet regulatory requirements and ensure property safety. Conducting these tests protects water quality and the structure’s integrity while immediately triggering any necessary remediation measures.
