New England Tank Service is a family-owned oil-tank company Paul McGowan started in North Attleboro in 1986, and it's still run out of the same shop today with his son-in-law, Steve Huling. The work is narrow and specific — replacing and removing residential heating-oil tanks — and the reviews describe the same routine again and again: a quick quote, a crew that shows up on time, and a job usually wrapped up in two or three hours. That pattern holds across roughly a decade of reviews. On Google, 226 ratings average 4.9 stars, and the written accounts name the crew by first name — Steve, Dan, Paul, Daniel, Eric — describing specifics like a Roth double-wall tank swapped in with new fill and vent lines, oil filtered and returned from the old tank, or a permit pulled and a fuel line rerun to bring an old setup up to code. BBB gives the company an A+ grade and lists the same core service: installing and removing residential oil tanks. The one sour note, in a November 2025 review, described being hung up on mid-call after explaining the job was a tank removal rather than a replacement — called 'very unprofessional' by the reviewer. It's an outlier against dozens of detailed, positive accounts, but worth knowing before calling. Angi and HomeAdvisor both show an identical 5.0 rating from 41 reviews and the same review text — the two sites are mirroring each other rather than offering independent counts, so the real weight of evidence sits with the much larger, more varied Google history. For anyone with a leaking, failing, or out-of-code oil tank in eastern Massachusetts or Rhode Island, this is a business with a long, well-documented track record doing exactly that job — worth a call for a quote, though it's fair to ask upfront how they handle a removal-only request given that one phone complaint.
Steve and his team were amazing. My old tank was leaking bad and I was afraid I would have a big problem in my cellar. Steve came over at 10:00 to give me a quote. I was really nervous about the oil leak. He made a few calls and 3 hours later he had his crew at my house and they installed a new tank. They answer the phone and come when they say they will. I highly recommend New England Tank service.
Incredible, efficient, and quick work. Everything was smooth between working through the initial quote process with Steve and his patience with my indecisiveness to the install and cleanup process with Daniel and team. I could not have asked for a better setup, and a great team that provided honest feedback and reasonable prices!
Steve was able to give me a quote quickly and schedule us ASAP. The team arrived on schedule and I was updated throughout the service. The work was done in the estimated time frame and they cleaned up the area nicely. I would highly recommend!
Team was prompt, polite, respectful of property! Absolutely recommend.
Dan Eric Paul and Steve were great to work with. Removed the old tank, replaced with a Roth double wall, installed new fill and vent lines, ran a new gas line, removed the old line and primed the furnace. Job took ~3 hours, in and out no mess left behind. Highly recommend
