A complete oil tank service for homes and businesses, from the first visit to the final boiler check.

Oil tank replacement

We transfer your oil to our holding tank, remove the old tank, install the new one, reconnect your supply and check your boiler runs.

Costs and what’s included

Bases and new positions

Most of our tanks go on concrete bases with reinforcing mesh, and we can move your tank to a new position within the regulations.

Fire walls and compliance

Where separation distances can’t be met, we fit a self-supporting 30-minute fire barrier so your installation is fully legal.

Tank regulations explained

Emergency fuel transfer

Leaking tank? We come out the same day, pump your oil into a holding tank and keep your heating running.

Why choose Lincs Oil Tanks?

Most of our oil tanks are installed on concrete bases with reinforcing mesh. Paving slab bases can move and sink over time, distorting the tank, making it more likely to rupture and possibly voiding the warranty.

If your boiler doesn’t fire up after installation, or needs alterations, we’re fully qualified heating engineers and will have you back up and running in no time.

It’s always us doing the work. Nothing is ever subcontracted, so you get the same personal, quality service from start to finish.

Be assured

We’re OFTEC registered installers, so all work is carried out to current OFTEC regulations. We’re also an accredited Tankmark installer for Harlequin.

We hold £2 million public liability insurance and £10,000 public indemnity insurance, should there be any problems with the installation in the future. There’s no excess for you to pay on any of this.

We cover from South Yorkshire to South Cambridgeshire, and as far across as Barnsley, Derby and Leicester. More about us

Compliant and non-compliant installations

An oil tank has to meet strict separation distances, or be protected by a proper fire barrier. Here’s the difference.

Compliant installation

Correct distances from fire risks, with a self-supporting 30-minute fire wall.

Illegal, non-compliant installs

Fire-boarding that isn’t self-supporting or fire-rated to 30 minutes, so not to OFTEC standards.
