Top 5 Most Frequently Asked Questions
When it comes to a soil investigation around an existing underground heating oil tank, precision and accuracy are paramount. Many contractors adhere to the industry standard of hand probing three sides of the tank. However, the effectiveness of this method can vary depending on the soil composition, whether it's rocky or sandy. In some cases, they may not be able to probe to the required depth of approximately seven feet along the tank's bottom. Sampling at a shallower depth compromises the accuracy of the readings obtained. Moreover, hand equipment limitations prevent a thorough delineation of the soil, making it challenging to assess the extent of potential contamination accurately.
At A-1, we go above and beyond by utilizing state-of-the-art Geo Probe machines. These advanced tools allow us to conduct comprehensive soil sampling, reaching depths of up to twenty feet if necessary. By employing this specialized equipment, we can effectively track the contamination plume and provide you with a true fixed cost for the cleanup. Our confidence in the accuracy of our soil samples is so high that we offer a guarantee on our lab results, setting us apart from any other company in the state of NJ. Rest assured, when we test the tank before you buy a house and confirm its cleanliness, we assume the responsibility for any required cleanup after you close on the property as long as you enroll into our guarantee program. We charge $1,400.00 for a six month guarantee.
With A-1 Oil Tank Removal, you can trust that our soil investigations are conducted meticulously and with the utmost precision. Our commitment to accuracy, advanced equipment, and guarantee on lab results ensures that you receive reliable information to make informed decisions about your property.
When it comes to an existing underground oil tank that was previously filled in place, it is absolutely crucial to conduct a thorough soil investigation. Despite having all the "proper" documents from the township, it's important to note that soil testing was not mandatory at the time of tank filling. As a result, many of these tanks were leaking before they were filled, even though a simple visual inspection of the clean tank may have seemed sufficient to determine their condition.
A significant percentage of these tanks, upon removal, fail the visual inspections. To safeguard yourself and your investment, it is imperative to perform proper due diligence and have the soil tested before purchasing the property. By taking advantage of our guarantee, you can potentially save thousands of dollars in the future.
At A-1 Oil Tank Removal, we emphasize the importance of conducting comprehensive soil testing around previously filled underground oil tanks. We understand the potential risks and liabilities associated with these tanks and are committed to providing you with accurate information to make informed decisions.
When it comes to purchasing a house with a leaking underground heating oil tank, we strongly advise conducting a soil investigation for a fixed price before finalizing the transaction.

Our fixed price contract remains valid for six months, giving you ample time to close on the property and engage our services for the required work.
It's important to be aware that no other company in the state of NJ offers a genuine fixed price solution like ours. Beware of companies advertising fixed price proposals and make sure to carefully review the fine print in their contracts. We have thoroughly examined such agreements and can confirm that they do not provide true fixed price contracts.

Our fixed price approach sets us apart from the competition, giving you a clear understanding of the costs involved in addressing the leaking underground heating oil tank.

No, this is precisely why we can offer our services at such a competitive price of $600.

In most cases, we conduct field screening of the soil, which allows us to gather the necessary information without incurring excessive costs.
Performing a comprehensive soil delineation, which involves a written report, NJDEP certified subsurface evaluator, and extensive sampling, can easily amount to $4,500. However, we believe it is unnecessary to spend such a substantial amount solely to determine the cleanup cost.
Our approach is focused on efficiency and providing cost-effective solutions to our clients. By conducting a targeted soil investigation, we can accurately determine the extent of contamination and offer you a fixed price for the cleanup without incurring unnecessary expenses.

No, it is important to note that if we are unable to access the tank area with our specialized Geo Probe equipment, we cannot provide a fixed price proposal or guarantee for the soil investigation. This is also why you won't find any other company in the industry offering similar specialized services. They simply lack the necessary equipment and expertise to take on such risks.
However, even if we are unable to use our equipment in certain situations, we can still conduct soil sampling around your tank manually. It's worth mentioning that in these cases, we cannot offer a fixed price or guarantee since the investigation will be performed using manual methods.
