Professional Underground Storage Tank Removal in Waterloo

Our workflow minimizes disruption, protects the environment, and ensures full regulatory compliance from start to finish.

Identification & Safe Excavation

We begin with professional inspections and advanced locating methods to identify any buried fuel tanks. When a UST is confirmed, our technicians perform controlled excavation with careful utility awareness and site protection to reduce impact on landscaping and structures.

Soil Testing & Contamination Management

After the tank is removed, we collect soil samples for chain-of-custody laboratory analysis. If petroleum impacts are present, SOS manages targeted excavation and removal of impacted soils to meet Ontario environmental standards and to move the site toward closure.

Certified Transport & Site Restoration

Impacted material is hauled by licensed carriers to an approved treatment or disposal facility near Waterloo. We then complete verification (confirmatory) sampling to confirm remediation. Once cleared, the excavation is backfilled, compacted, and graded so your property is returned to its original condition—or better.

Every stage is completed by trained personnel working to MOE and TSSA requirements—protecting your investment and the environment.

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

Older underground tanks—often steel—can corrode and leak fuel into surrounding soil and groundwater. Prompt removal reduces environmental risk and prevents costly delays during a sale or refinance.

Risks of leaving a UST in place

  • Environmental contamination and long-term liability
  • Higher remediation costs if leaks occur
  • Insurance and financing challenges during property sales
  • Potential health and safety hazards

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.
