A company did that to my uncles house in NJ. They put about 2.5 foot of heating oil in his basement. He use to get it, but about 6 years ago he converted to gas. The house was a total loss. They had to buy him out.

Holy fuck, that’s what I wondered with the house in Easton. Any kind of non sealed/coated concrete on the basement floor would absorb a ton of oil. I imagine the home would forever smell like diesel.

Oh yes, that's exactly what happened, even after they drained it and everything smelled that was upstairs for the longest time.
