When Erm began to smell oil in her basement, she became concerned about her children being exposed to the fumes. HTC removed a leaking 1,000-gallon underground storage tank from Erm's property and performed vapor monitoring in her home.

I noticed the smell of oil in the basement, especially when the tank was being filled. I had no idea what the condition of the tank was. It might have been the original tank for the house. It seemed like I was going through oil fast, but I really couldn’t tell. I saw the ad in the newspaper for a free inspection and thought, “It’s not going to hurt to find out”.

When I called them, they told me about the program and funding that can take place. They were very honest and up front about the program, which I appreciate a lot. I was wary about something for free. John called me and talked to me about the program, then he came out and did the test and found out the tank was leaking. He did all the paperwork, forms and talked to the people he needed to talk to in order to get me approved. I was approved and really I appreciate all of the work and the conscientiousness.

He was very careful about removing the dirt and taking the tank out. He was very thorough with getting all of the contaminated dirt out. He even explained the process of what they do with contaminated dirt. Then, he brought in fill for the place where the old tank was and installed another tank for me. The whole process was pretty painless. I was a little nervous but John was very upfront about the funding and the costs. I took the risk and was lucky it got approved.

They were very easy to work with. I know there are some big companies doing this same thing, but for me, I’d rather support a local business.
