Regulations

Good to know before you ask

Old buried heating oil tanks are common in the Northeast. Many buyers, lenders and insurers ask for a sweep or a removal before closing. Some states, such as New Jersey, certify tank contractors.

If soil samples show a leak, the cleanup follows state environmental rules and can take longer. We do not perform the work ourselves and do not show prices: ask the contractors who contact you for a written quote.
