Bunded Oil Tank Installation for Rural Homes

If your oil tank is old, damaged or no longer compliant with current regulations, Total Energy Services provides professional oil tank replacement across Dorset and surrounding areas.

Many rural homes across Dorset rely on oil heating because they are not connected to the mains gas network. Your oil tank is a critical part of your heating system, and replacing an ageing or leaking tank helps protect your property, the environment and your fuel supply.

Our experienced engineers install modern OFTEC-compliant bunded oil tanks designed to safely store heating oil for years to come.

OFTEC-Compliant Bunded Oil Tanks

Modern regulations often require bunded oil tanks, which feature a double-layer construction that provides additional protection against leaks.

Benefits of upgrading to a bunded tank include:

✔ Increased protection against oil spills
✔ Compliance with current regulations
✔ Reduced environmental risk
✔ Longer lifespan and durability
✔ Peace of mind for homeowners

Our engineers will advise on the most suitable oil tank size and location for your property.

Oil Tank Replacement Cost in Dorset

The cost of oil tank replacement in Dorset can vary depending on several factors, including the size and type of tank required, the location of the existing tank, and the work needed to install the new system safely and in line with current regulations. Properties in rural areas may require additional work such as preparing a new base, updating pipework, or improving access to meet safety standards. Modern installations also often involve upgrading to a bunded oil tank, which provides additional protection against leaks and environmental damage. At Total Energy Services, we assess each property individually to recommend the most suitable tank and installation method, ensuring your new oil tank is compliant, safe and designed to last for many years.
