Professional Underground Storage Tank Removal in Burlington

At Specialized Onsite Services, we provide a complete solution for underground storage tank (UST) detection, removal, and remediation in Burlington, Ontario. Our step-by-step approach ensures safety, compliance, and minimal disruption to your property.

Comprehensive Identification & Removal

We begin with specialized testing to detect any hidden underground tanks. If a UST is located, our certified technicians carry out careful, efficient excavation while prioritizing property protection and environmental safety standards.

Soil Testing & Contamination Management

Once the tank is removed, our team conducts thorough soil sampling to identify any potential contamination. If petroleum or hazardous substances are detected, we safely excavate and manage the impacted soil to ensure your property meets Ontario environmental requirements.

Certified Soil Transportation & Site Restoration

All contaminated material is transported to a licensed disposal facility near Burlington for proper treatment. We then complete confirmatory laboratory testing to verify full remediation. After clearance, the excavation area is backfilled, and your property is restored to its original condition—or better.

Why Should I Remove My Underground Storage Tank (UST)?

If you’ve discovered an old oil tank buried on your Burlington property, removal is strongly recommended. Most USTs installed decades ago were made of bare steel, which corrodes over time and may leak harmful petroleum products into the soil and groundwater.

Risks of not removing a UST

Cause environmental contamination
Lead to expensive remediation costs later
Create insurance and financing challenges during property sales
Put your health and property at risk

Warning Burlington Residents & Businesses! Do not remove the UST yourself; this could result in damage to your property or even yourself. Call the SOS professionals today!

We bought an auto repair shop with an old oil tank that left contamination under the floor and footing. SOS handled everything perfectly. Cam and Levi are friendly, professional, and extremely knowledgeable. Communication was clear and honest — no runaround, just straight answers. If you need remediation done right the first time, these are the people to call. As shop owners, we know the value of fixing things right — and that’s exactly what SOS does.

Cam and his crew were exceptionally easy to work with. Our garage was in bad shape and we had planned on utilizing SOS and the team for months. They came and demolished our garage in such a professional manner. Cam came and worked hard all day because he didn't want to let any of his clients down. Even while the night prior there was a huge windstorm and he had to delegate all the various jobs that need prioritizing. The clean up was done effectively and the team works fast and they are a lot of fun as well. Last minute Ryan and I decided a deck would be a great addition. I literally just asked Cam and he said he would come back the following week and build us a beautiful deck where our old leaky garage once stood. The cost of his work is very reasonable. I cannot thank him and his team for all the hard work they did for us!! Lots of appreciation Leiann and Ryan

When we found a large area mold in our attic and basement, we reached to SOS. During the work, they had found more hidden mold and means more work than expected. They returned our home next day and got this resolved properly and thoroughly. We are so satisfied and feel grateful to have SOS team to deal with it. We will strongly recommend SOS if someone encounter the similar situation and need professional help.
