Whatever the source of the leak, dealing with it yourself might be difficult. Oil is a dangerous substance that harms both people and animals, as well as the environment. Moreover, it ignites easily and, after prolonged exposure, may have a negative impact on your health. You must act quickly and only try to control an oil spill if you are trained and have the necessary PPE.
When an oil spill occurs, ICE Cleaning offers prompt and effective services. Our knowledgeable specialists have completed specialised training and can remediate a variety of circumstances. This covers spills of petrol, fuel, hydraulic oil, oil in water, contaminated soil, or oil on hard surfaces.

Our oil spill cleaning experts are available for clients across the nation, including Royal Tunbridge Wells.
Our expert cleaners will arrive prepared to conduct a site survey in accordance with health and safety standards. We constantly prioritise the welfare of our clients, assuring that any dangers, including potentially dangerous chemicals, are taken care of before we leave.
Until the outcome satisfies your expectations, we stay on-site and have any hazardous items removed. The procedure and price of the job may vary depending on the size of the spill, and the findings of our site survey.
We use industrial-grade tools and chemical processes to remove any residues as part of our treatment to completely extract oil from the site. After finishing, our experts disinfect the contaminated area using TORIK Cleaning technology.
How to act when oil spills
Your council may advise you on whom to contact to repair the leak, but ultimately it is your responsibility. You must proceed with the following actions:
- If your home's oil tank is in an enclosed area, ventilate it.
- Avoid touching the oil with your skin or clothing.
- If you handled the oil, ensure your hands are clean before you smoke, eat, or drink anything.
- Prevent the oil from flowing.
- Identify the source of the leak.
- Put a metal bucket beneath the oil that is leaking if you can.
- If it is safe and you are qualified, use absorbent materials to stop the oil leak.
- Check the levels to see how much oil may have been lost.
- Never try to handle the spill yourself with water or chemicals.
- Quarantine any contaminated items or fabrics.
- Maintain a record of the damages and any insurance payments you may have to make.

How does a domestic oil tank leak?
Domestic heating oil tanks are frequently used by homeowners in rural areas to keep their homes warm. These tanks, however, are incredibly vulnerable to leaks, unforeseen damage, and poor maintenance. Due to the position of these tanks, which might possibly affect the local water supply, the environment is in danger.
To safeguard the local ecosystem in your neighbourhood, if you have a heating oil tank, you must keep it properly maintained or consider switching to greener energy sources. You should periodically check your tank and conduct a general inspection to find leaks early. Any of the following might indicate that your tank is leaking:
- The oil level in your tank has dropped significantly.
- The presence of a hot or burning oil odour
- Your water appears or tastes greasy.
- The dirt around your tank is covered with slick residue.
- Around the tank, local plant life is dishevelled or dead.
When your tank loses oil, you must contact your district council, insurance company, water company, and a reputable oil spill cleaning service. As the oil tank is on your property, you are responsible for containing the leak and paying for its repair.
