Water Tank Cleaning Service in Delhi – Clean Tank, Safe Water for Your Family
The water you use for bathing, cooking, washing utensils and often even drinking is stored in your water tank. Over time, every tank collects mud, sludge, algae, rust, bacteria and even dead insects at the bottom and on its walls. In Delhi, where many homes get water from the municipal supply, tankers or borewells, the tank fills with sediment much faster. Click2Delhi offers professional water tank cleaning service in Delhi for overhead tanks, underground sumps and loft tanks. Our trained team cleans and disinfects your tank so the water stored in it is cleaner and safer for daily use.
Why Water Tank Cleaning Is Important
- Sludge and mud build-up: Fine soil and sediment in the supply water settle at the bottom of the tank and form a thick layer.
- Algae and moss growth: Sunlight and warmth cause green algae to grow, especially in plastic overhead tanks on rooftops.
- Bacteria and germs: A dirty tank becomes a breeding ground for bacteria that can cause stomach infections, diarrhoea, typhoid and skin problems.
- Bad smell and taste: Stagnant, dirty water often smells musty and tastes unpleasant.
- Insects and mosquitoes: Open or broken lids let insects, lizards and mosquito larvae into the tank.
- Blocked pipes and taps: Sediment from the tank clogs taps, showerheads, geysers and water purifiers.
- Shorter RO filter life: Dirty water loads your water purifier filters faster.
Types of Water Tanks We Clean in Delhi
Overhead Plastic Water Tanks
Sintex, Supreme and other plastic tanks placed on rooftops are the most common in Delhi homes. We clean tanks of 500 litres to 5,000 litres and more, removing algae and sludge from the walls and bottom.
Underground Water Tanks and Sumps
Underground sumps collect a lot of mud and sediment because they receive water directly from the main supply or tankers. We drain, desilt and clean underground tanks of all sizes.
Concrete and Cement Water Tanks
RCC and brick tanks in independent houses and old buildings develop moss, cracks and dirt deposits. We scrub and clean the walls and floor of concrete tanks.
Loft and Bathroom Tanks
Small tanks placed in lofts and above bathrooms are cleaned carefully, even in tight spaces.
Society and Commercial Water Tanks
We also clean large overhead and underground tanks for apartment societies, offices, schools, hospitals, hotels and restaurants.
Our Water Tank Cleaning Process
We follow a step-by-step method to clean your tank thoroughly and disinfect it:
- Inspection: Our team checks the size, type and condition of the tank and the level of dirt inside.
- Draining the water: Remaining water is drained out using a submersible pump.
- Sludge removal: Mud, sludge and sediment are removed from the bottom of the tank.
- High-pressure cleaning: The inner walls, floor and ceiling of the tank are cleaned with a high-pressure water jet to remove algae and dirt.
- Scrubbing: Stubborn deposits and moss are scrubbed off manually.
- Vacuum and rinse: Dirty water and loose particles are pulled out with a vacuum pump, and the tank is rinsed.
- Disinfection: A suitable disinfectant is applied to kill bacteria and germs inside the tank.
- Final rinse: The tank is rinsed again so no disinfectant smell remains, and it is ready to be refilled.
A standard household overhead tank usually takes about 1 to 2 hours to clean. Large underground sumps and society tanks take longer.

Water Tank Cleaning FAQs
How long does water tank cleaning take?
A normal household overhead tank takes around 1 to 2 hours. Underground sumps and large society tanks can take longer, depending on their size and condition.
Will the water supply be stopped during cleaning?
Yes, the tank must be empty during cleaning, so water from that tank will not be available for a few hours. We recommend storing some water in buckets before the team arrives.
Is the disinfectant safe for drinking water tanks?
The disinfectant is used in the correct quantity and the tank is rinsed properly afterwards, so no harmful residue or smell remains before the tank is refilled.
Do you clean plastic tanks without damaging them?
Yes. Plastic tanks are cleaned with suitable pressure and soft scrubbing so the inner surface is not scratched or damaged.
Do you clean tanks for apartment societies and offices?
Yes. We clean large overhead and underground tanks for residential societies, offices, schools, hotels and other commercial buildings in Delhi.
