The costs of fuel leaks from damaged tanks

Leaks or spills from domestic fuel tanks can cause serious damage to property, land, water courses and wildlife.

Land and property

Fuel leaks from damaged tanks can reduce property values, with clean-up costs often reaching tens of thousands of pounds.

• Minor leaks (no soil contamination) £500 - £2,000
• Moderate leaks (some contamination, limited to surface) £2,000 - £10,000
• Major leaks (property damage, significant soil or groundwater contamination) £10,000 - £50,000+

The message is clear, please check your tank before topping up!
