Detect Underground Oil Tanks

Before You Buy in NJ & NY

How Oil Tank Sweeps Save Homebuyers from Costly Surprises

Early detection helps you avoid costly cleanup and liability issues. An oil tank sweep is essential to detect underground oil tanks that could pose environmental and financial risks. 

Trust Usta Home and Sewer Inspections for thorough,

reliable oil tank sweeps backed by years of experience in NJ and NY.

Why You Need An Oil Tank Sweep

Abandoned or buried oil tanks were commonly used in older homes for heating.

Over time, these tanks may leak, contaminating soil and groundwater.

Cleanup costs can reach tens of thousands of dollars. Our sweep helps protect buyers from unexpected liability by detecting tanks before they become a problem.
