Why you should remove your dormant Oil Tanks in Woodbridge

Old, abandoned, or unused oil tanks present serious and growing risks over time.

Dormant oil tanks can:

  • Develop internal corrosion that leads to fuel leaks without warning
  • Cause soil and groundwater contamination, resulting in significant environmental liability
  • Trigger insurance cancellation or refusal of coverage
  • Create major obstacles during home sales, refinancing, or property transfers
  • Reduce property value and delay or prevent real estate closings

In many cases, properties in Woodbridge cannot be sold or refinanced until an abandoned oil tank has been fully removed and properly documented.

Professional Oil Tank Removal Is Required

Oil tanks must be removed by a licensed, approved contractor to ensure compliance, safety, and proper documentation.

Approved removal must be performed by a company recognized by:

  • Technical Standards and Safety Authority (TSSA)
  • Ontario Ministry of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP)

Professional removal ensures environmental protection, regulatory compliance, and the issuance of a Certificate of Tank Removal required for insurance and real estate purposes.

Oil Heating Systems in Older Woodbridge Properties

Many older homes and estate properties in Woodbridge were originally heated with oil before natural gas infrastructure became widespread in the area. As a result, unused oil tanks are still commonly found in basement utility rooms, garages, side yards, and buried backyard installations, even in homes converted to gas decades ago.

These aging tanks often exceed their safe service life and can develop corrosion, hidden leaks, or undocumented fill and vent piping. In Woodbridge’s competitive real estate market, abandoned oil tanks frequently become an issue during insurance reviews, refinancing, or property sales, where proper removal and documentation are required.

Professional oil tank removal ensures compliance with TSSA and MECP regulations, protects local soil and groundwater, and provides the Certificate of Tank Removal needed for insurance and real estate purposes.
