Mr. Theurer started learning about the oil business at the young age of 10. He spent time with his father, who introduced him to the core principles of the business during after-school hours and weekends. During this period, he honed his skills in boiler and burner mechanics, equipment repair, and the general framework of heating systems. Upon receiving his driver's license, he moved into oil delivery, broadening his expertise in NYC logistics and routing. As time passed, Mr. Theurer convinced his family to keep the business, enabling him to manage daily operations. He continued to grow through his experiences and established himself as an entrepreneur by acquiring new companies and expanding his business. By 20, he executed his first acquisition, initiating the company's growth trajectory, which involved acquiring 11 more companies over time. The company is now one of the largest independently owned residential energy providers in the NYC metropolitan area.

Called for emergency service since heat wasn't kicking in and 3 hours later still no service or any calls. I will be switching company and report this to BBB.

Even during a pandemic these people never let you down. No heat when I woke up. Had a repairman in an hour and he was great (didn't get his name---he lives in Oceanside he said). Jennifer who answered the phone was professional and polite. A happy customer for almost 20 years. They're the best.

Ive been a customer since 2003. They are phenomenal. Someone is always in the office to take your calls 24/7. They respond immediately to emergency calls. Both their customer service and repair department go above and beyond to get it done. I highly recommend them

I reached out to Vincent over yelp asking for HVAC service. we needed our freon refilled ASAP to get through a hot & humid week. Even though Approved Oil does not provide the service directly, they were awesome at providing me contact info for Steven Fillecia. Steven was great at understanding the issue, set expectation on pricing and showed up at agreed time to fix our issue. This shows how businesses like approved oil care for the customer and enable other service companies or professionals during these tough times. Thanks Vincent !!

Dishonest company. I was short changed on the amount delivered. There price was higher than it was supposed to be. I asked for a service call for an Apartment building and they said no unless I give them a cut of my natural gas delivery. Approved starts out ok and then turns in to a band of thieves

The worst experience in my entire life dealing with a company. They delivered oil with me not consenting to it and later on sent a bill will fight in court with proof as I have cameras and they left no slip

Terrible customer service. Had to call three times until someone didn't hang up on me. Answered my first question and then hung up before I could ask another.

By far the BEST oil company in Brooklyn! I have been a customer for years now. It's the only company I trust in today's market. With their competitive pricing there is no need to look elsewhere. The service is always reliable and their staff is very friendly and professional. Every year they service my boiler to get my home prepared for the cold winters ahead. I highly recommend becoming a customer.

Approved oil has been our first and only choice for years. Any time I call them they come to the rescue. And don't bother asking for someone specific because every single person at approved is just as kind and tip top with their service. KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK GUYS!
