Tincknell Fuels Ltd

Tincknell Fuels Ltd We are a family-run business that has been proudly supplying Kerosene, Red Diesel, and White Diesel to farms and homes across the Southwest since 1954.

Founded in 1925 by Robert Tincknell in Wells, Somerset, our family-run business has deep roots in supporting the local farming community. Originally focused on blacksmithing and agricultural machinery, we expanded in 1954 to include fuel distribution with the formation of Tincknell Fuels, serving Somerset and beyond. Over the decades, our commitment to expert knowledge, heritage, and friendly customer service has remained strong. In 2024, we embraced the future by diversifying our offerings with Renewable Fuel (HVO), continuing to support our community with reliable, sustainable energy solutions across the Southwest.

Do you own an oil-heated home? ✅

There’s a government consultation about how homes that use oil heating could be treated in future energy plans. The current focus includes options like heat pumps, which can be expensive and disruptive for older rural homes.

Industry groups like UKIFDA are encouraging renewable fuels like HVO to be included as a practical, low‑disruption way to reduce emissions without replacing your boiler.

You may see our poor flag sitting a little lower than usual today. 🇬🇧

Please do not fear, we are not in distress! As our flag was being hoisted up, the weather had other plans and tangled it up on the line.

Please bear with us while our team (and the flag) fight to get it back to normal! 😂

Our calendars have now all been sent out, and we have been enjoying hearing all of your feedback on the photos and theme for this year.

We will be posting a photo each month to show a little bit of our history around Wells. Pictured below for January is a photo taken around 1940, which shows Robert Tincknell Senior shoeing a horse in Stoberry Park. 📸

At our Wells and Congresbury Country Store, open 7 days a week, we stock 20‑litre emergency home heating oil cans.

We know how worrying it can be to run low on oil, especially in the current weather. These cans give you peace of mind and ensure your home stays warm and you are never caught short. 🏠

As we head into 2026, we wanted to take a moment to look back on the past year. 🎉

Tincknell simply wouldn’t be where it is today without our incredible team. From helping customers through winter emergencies to supporting local community initiatives, they have shown up time and time again with the same care, commitment and friendly service.

Here’s to 2026. We can’t wait to see what the year brings, and we’ll continue to be there for our customers and communities, this year and for many more to come.
