Overhead tank cleaning for the government quarters of Moti Bagh and Nanakpura. The shared block tanks feeding these quarters are your water’s last stop before the tap — and being government-maintained, they are cleaned irregularly. From ₹699.
Moti Bagh is built around government quarters — Nanakpura and Moti Bagh I and II — with some private kothis mixed in near Chanakyapuri and RK Puram. The quarters run shared overhead tanks per block on the terrace, drawing from underground reservoirs on DJB supply. Because these are government-maintained buildings, the block tanks are cleaned on nobody’s personal schedule and often go a long time between services, quietly feeding the same water to every quarter in the block.
In a Moti Bagh quarter the shared rooftop tank is the last point your water passes before the tap, with no filter after it. If your block also has an underground reservoir you want cleaned, our fuller water tank cleaning in Moti Bagh page covers the whole system. This page is specifically about the overhead (rooftop) tank — the shared block tank on your terrace.
The shared block tanks in Moti Bagh fall into an accountability gap. They belong to no single resident and are meant to be looked after through official maintenance, so in practice they are cleaned irregularly and often long overdue. All the while the tank feeds a whole block of quarters, filling and emptying every day, its base sediment never removed and a scale ring slowly building. When the lid is finally lifted, the settled layer inside is usually far heavier than anyone expected.
These quarter blocks draw from underground reservoirs, and that first-stored water carries silt and grit that rides up into the rooftop tank on every refill, settling into a firm bed. The tanks and their lids on these older government buildings have aged, so dust and light get in and feed a film on the walls. Because residents rotate through the quarters and none of them owns the tank, it is easy for years to pass without a proper clean, until the water or the smell forces the issue.
No travel charge anywhere in Moti Bagh. The final price is confirmed on the call before we come — it depends only on tank size and access.

We reach every pocket of Moti Bagh — and there’s no travel charge to any of them:
“Do you clean the shared tanks in the Nanakpura quarters?” Yes. We clean shared block rooftop tanks across Nanakpura and Moti Bagh I and II, as well as the private kothis nearby. We can do a single block tank or coordinate several across the quarters in one visit, and we provide a dated certificate for the maintenance record.
“How much does a shared quarter-block rooftop tank cost?” A small tank up to 500 litres starts at ₹699 and a 1,000-litre tank is ₹899. The larger shared block tanks of 2,000 to 3,000 litres are ₹1,500 to ₹2,000 each, with a bulk discount when four or more are cleaned together for a set of blocks.
“Can you come the same day in Moti Bagh?” For a single tank, often yes. For several block tanks across the quarters we usually book a day ahead so we can coordinate access and pick a slot that does not cut supply to the quarters. Call 95603 66362 and we will arrange a suitable time.
“Why do the quarter tanks here get dirty when they are officially maintained?” Because official maintenance is irregular and the tanks belong to no one resident. A shared block tank in Moti Bagh feeds many quarters and is drained and refilled daily, but its base sediment is rarely removed and the reservoir water below adds silt on every fill. Left between infrequent services, it builds a heavy settled layer and scale.
“Our block shares one rooftop tank – can it be cleaned in one visit?” Yes, that is a common job in Moti Bagh. We isolate and drain the shared tank, scoop and vacuum the sludge, jet-wash and hand-scrub the walls and inlet, then apply a food-grade disinfectant and refill, confirming every quarter has water again. Photos and a dated certificate go to whoever holds the block’s maintenance file.
