Oil Tank Servicing & Inspection in Wiltshire

Keep your tank safe, insured and efficient with an annual safety inspection. We check, service and repair domestic and commercial oil tanks right across Wiltshire.

A tank that's quietly corroding or weeping can become a costly pollution incident before you ever notice. An annual inspection catches problems early, keeps your home insurance valid and extends the life of your tank. Our qualified engineers service tanks across Salisbury, Swindon, Chippenham, Devizes and the whole of Wiltshire — ideally alongside your boiler service.

What's included in a tank service

  • Full visual and structural inspection for leaks, corrosion, splits and bulging
  • Check of the bund integrity on bunded tanks
  • Inspection of the gauge, vent, fire valve, filter and oil supply pipework
  • Filter change and removal of water/sludge where needed
  • Assessment of the base, supports and fire-separation distances
  • A written report with clear, honest recommendations
🔧 Spotted a problem? Oil stains, a dropping gauge or a smell of oil are warning signs. Message us and we'll get a technician out to inspect it.

Why annual servicing matters

Most home insurance policies expect oil tanks to be maintained, and a leak from a neglected tank can be expensive to clean up and may not be covered. Regular servicing protects you on both counts — and means small fixes (a new filter or gauge) are sorted before they become a failed tank needing full replacement.

Need your oil boiler serviced too?

We look after the tank, not the boiler — but the two go hand in hand, and a tank inspection is the ideal time to get your boiler checked as well. We work with a trusted local heating engineer who services and repairs oil-fired boilers right across Wiltshire, so you can keep your whole heating system safe and efficient through one point of contact.

🔥 Want both done together? Drop us a message and we'll connect you with our boiler-servicing partner — or line up your tank inspection and boiler service around the same visit.
