In Ireland, the average cost of replacing an oil tank is around €1000. However, this figure can vary plus or minus depending on a number of factors, so it is important for homeowners to understand the key considerations that influence the cost.
The cost of replacing oil tank depends on several factors:
Tank size and type:
The size and type of oil tank you choose will play a significant role in determining the overall cost. Larger tanks may cost more. Oiltankreplacement.ie stocks a wide range of high quality Carbery plastic oil tanks - have a look.
Base condition:
