UK-Based Specialists in Petrol Station Cleaning
APT ICC provides specialist petrol station cleaning services across England and Wales, supporting fuel retailers, operators, and site owners with controlled, assessment-led cleaning solutions. Petrol station cleaning focuses on the safe removal of traffic film, fuel residues, oil, algae, and general debris from forecourts and associated areas while keeping sites operational.
This service is sometimes referred to as fuel station cleaning or forecourt cleaning. While the terminology varies, the purpose is the same: to maintain safe, clean, and compliant petrol station environments where vehicles, staff, and members of the public are constantly present. Forecourts are exposed to high levels of contamination from vehicles, fuel dispensing, weather, and foot traffic, making specialist cleaning essential.
APT ICC cleans all areas of petrol and fuel stations, including forecourt surfaces, pump islands, car wash areas, drainage channels, walkways, and surrounding hard standings. We also carry out high-level cleaning of signage, canopies, cladding, and external structures to improve overall site presentation and visibility. Each surface is assessed to ensure the correct cleaning method is used without causing damage.
In addition to planned cleaning, APT ICC provides emergency response services for fuel, oil, and chemical spills. This includes spill containment, safe removal of contamination, degreasing, and appropriate waste handling to prevent environmental harm and allow sites to return to operation as quickly as possible. All works are carried out with strict control measures in place to protect staff, customers, and the surrounding environment.
With over 35 years’ experience, APT ICC is trusted to deliver petrol station cleaning in live, high-risk environments. Recent projects include forecourt and site cleaning for a Gulf petrol station in Tredegar and Ebbw Vale. All services are delivered under strict health, safety, and environmental controls, providing reliable, high-quality results for petrol stations and fuel sites across England and Wales.
“I would like to express my sincere thanks to APT for the excellent job they carried out at Tai Bach. The project was a much needed one and now that it is completed it has really helped to improve the look of the town. We have received many good comments from the public which is always a good sign.”
Kevin Hiller - Property Surveyor, Neath & Port Talbot Council
“We employed the services of APT to renovate a Grade 2 Listed Building. Under the directive of Cadw we were not allowed to use any wet process or chemicals within the interior of the building. APT used Soda Blasting on sandstone, brick, ceramic glazed tiles, metal work, paintwork on ceilings, coving, woodwork and ornate fixtures.
It was a great achievement to have one system for all the surfaces that needed cleaning and restoring and one that also ticked all the boxes of the environmental and conservation officers. The process saved us both time & money in being able to have just one company on site. We are very grateful to APT for their hard work on this project.”
Tim Luke - Gee Construction
“I would like to thank APT-ICC for their excellent work and assistance on the Barclays Bank project. They delivered the scheme and additional works on time and without issue thanks to Andrew and his team for all your extra effort, long hours and commitment. I look forward to using them on future renovations.”
Graham Lowe - Project Manager, Overbury Plc
“We have been receiving an overwhelming number of positive comments about the war memorial cleaning. Yesterday, during the small ceremony at the Penrallt column on the 1st World War anniversary, many expressed their appreciation for how splendid the memorial looks after the cleaning. We anticipate sharing photos on the internet page later this week. Additionally, we have shared your details with another person who serves as the clerk to two other local councils. Thank you once again for the exceptional work.”
