Looking for an oil tank installing?

We at PlumbCORE are OFTEC qualified to install all types of oil tanks and issue the appropriate certification on completion.With any metal oil tank you can check and paint your tank every year but you won’t know there’s a problem until it begins to leak. Condensation causes the tank to corrode from the inside taking you completely by surprise.

If you don’t already, why not replace your oil now for a plastic bunded oil tank? Such an oil tank is weather resistant but is bunded, meaning if the oil was to ever leak from its store, it would only ever go into the outer bund/tank which has an alarm installed in case of any leaks.

Oil leaks can case large environmental damage to wildlife and in turn if the case is traced back to the owner of the tank costly fines can be issued by various councils and organisations.
