Called them. Booked an appointment. They arrived as schedule on time. They removed the old tank and cleaned up nicely. Smooth all the way around. Clean. And Professional. I used them on a recommendation from someone else. A++.

Tim was very responsive and provided a quote for removal of the tank. He was able to fit me into his schedule and arrived promptly to do the job. His price was reasonable and he and his crew completed the removal in under 90 minutes.

The work was excellent. The workers showed up on time, performed the worked and didn't leave a mark anywhere. You almost couldn't detect that a tank was there to begin with. It was a great job all around.

Excellent Service - I mistakenly said that the oil tank was full accessible and did not share there was wood framing around it - they removed it free of charge - very clean and very careful.

Tim was very responsive, came when he said he would be here and was very professional. The sink had to be broken up but you wouldn't know there was a pile of rubble in the basement. His team cleaned up beautifully. I would definitely recommend him.

They came on time and though there were two large tanks in a medium crawl space (about 5' tall) that were still 3/4 full of old oil, they were able to pump out the oil, clean, cut up and remove the tanks and the piping without spilling a drop. On discovering the two tanks were on their sides in a "crawl space" the final price was a small amount more than the original estimate The whole process was completed within three hours time and a large problem that had worried me for several years was immediately solved. I would highly recommend them for anyone with a similar situation.

Tim and his crew were great. They came right as expected, were professional, clean and prompt. It took about 1.5 to 2 hours, but it also helped that our tank was empty and there was nothing to pump out. They had to cut it a few more times because of our narrow row home, but they got the job done quickly and without any debris through the house. Highly recommend them.

PA. TANK REMOVAL promptly returned my call, and Timothy told me that he does Oil Tank Removals in Wilmington, De., and he quoted me a price of $550 Total to do the job!! That included DRAINING the REMNANTS of any REMAINING OIL, CUT UP the TANK, REMOVAL ot the TANK, also REMOVAL OF THE FILL PIPE/VENT PIPING from the WALL, and then CEMENTING the PIPING HOLES in the WALL!! They then CLEANED UP that AREA, and there were NO SIGNS of any Oil Spillage or Leaks!! All this was DONE in Less than 2hrs.!! Also, after getting the initial quote of $550, I told Timothy that I was AWAITING a few Price Quotes from some other Companies, and that I would get back to him and let him know, one way or the other!! About a half hour later,Timothy called back and OFFERED ME a $100 DISCOUNT off the $550 Price, if I GAVE HIM the JOB for the Next Morning with an 8:15 am. ARRIVAL TIME!! He stated that he had a Last MINUTE CANCELLATION in the WILMINGTON Area, and that he Trys to KEEP a FULL WORK SCEDULE as much as possible!! I was VERY PLEASED with his PROFESSIONALISM and CLEAR COMMUNICATION!!

They had a scheduling issue, but we worked it out without a problem. They arrived and went to work. We had a pleasant conversation with Tim and and I liked their professionalism. because I had a basement entrance they did not have to go through the house. Fast and efficient. Pumped out the old oil. Cut up the tank and carted it away. house. Wow, what a difference. We have them coming back to take out the old furnace. First rate job.

They arrived exactly on time at 8am. They covered all floors and stairs. There were five men. Two pumped the oil out of the tank and into their truck. They informed me of each step, especially the loud banging sound when they compressed the tank and then removed it from the house without a drop of oil being spilled. They also eliminated any oil vapors. They did all of this within an hour!! I was very impressed with their professionalism and prompt service.

He was excellent. Their professionalism, punctuality, responsiveness, quality of the workmanship, and price were all excellent. It's a really messy thing because you got to remove oil from the tank, slice the iron tank up into pieces, then slice the old boiler and you got to get it out of the house and they did fast, they did it quiet, and there was no oil drips or anything left behind.

Tim came by on the day we called, to assess the job. He is professional/timely, seems to be a sharp businessman. and is also quite affable, as a bonus. I had 2 another candidates from which to source the removal, so we told him we would get back to him. He was also booked about 2-3 weeks out, which was a nag, but not a deal breaker. After the other candidates, I left skid marks getting back to Tim. We booked with him, and he even did some juggling to schedule us the next week.. A day or two before the event, he called to move the time of day a few hours later. Then he and his workmen showed up politely-early for the appointment. I kinda' had an anticipation that oil tank and boiler removal was going to be one of the more loud and ugly projects you can have done to your home. Extricating the oil, sawing the tank and 700 lbs of cast iron boiler, then hauling it up out of the basement to the truck, sounds like it would be a full day of noisy grinding, and loud grunting and groaning. With the occasional oil-drip-to-be-found later. Not so, with Tim and his guys. I'm guessing he had on an extra guy because he had a busy scheduled day, but those guys knocked it out in just a few hours or so. It seemed barely any sawwing/grinding noise at all, and they use a mechanical Stepwalker (whatever it's called) to get the iron safely up the steps, so there are no wall dents or strained workers. Since they had the time, for a reasonable extra charge they also removed a nasty old concrete/iron twin-sink which was taking up more floorspace than it ever deserved. IMHO, working with Tim was an easy, no muss, no fuss experience. That's the way I like it. They came, they sawwed, they conquered. And left nothing behind except tidiness, and a job well done. (Note: Angie's should consider a separate category for heating equipment etc removal. It's a niche within the HVAC category, but it's a service which has more value to it than meets the eye)
Description of Work: Our Medieval heat and hot water boiler finally met with a much deserved death. Rather than waiting to go through the process of finding a heating contractor and estimate for our gas conversion, we decided to get the oil tank and boiler out of the basement. The idea worked fairly well because removing all of the cast iron appears to be the most non-favorite part of an install for the system providers. It also leaves the area wide open to discuss instals with prospective contractors.

They showed up when scheduled and quickly completed all of the work. Put down protection on the basement floor, not a drop spilled. They pumped out the old heating oil, disconnected the fill pipes, cut up the tank and had it all done in about 2 hours. Very professional!!! Would highly recommend this company.

Excellent. Owner and helper appeared. Full drop cloths up basement stairs to outside. Full lined cloths on basement floor. Tank disconnected and sawed into pieces so they could be carried up and out. Not a drop spilled. Used window fan to keep odor down. Feed and vent lines removed and holes in block wall cemented over. Prompt estimate, on time for job, quickly and efficiently done and gone. Owner very pleasant person.

Tim was very helpful and was able to give me an initial estimate over the phone. He came out to the house a week before the job and told me there would be a small (and was very small) extra charge for the length of tubing required. Within 4 hours, they had disassembled and installed my new tank and was installed to code. I am very happy with the work performed and would recommend Tim.
