Underground Sump Cleaning in Mayur Vihar Phase 2

Underground sumps in Mayur Vihar Phase 2

Tucked behind the Phase 1 spine, this pocket is wall-to-wall CGHS blocks and DDA flats with very little standalone housing. The pattern on each block is the same and it matters here: water arrives into an underground sump, then pressure pumps lift it to the overhead tank that feeds the flats. Because the two tanks are linked in one loop, the condition of the buried one decides how clean the water reaching the taps really is. A neglected sump undoes any rooftop cleaning within days.

We clean the pair as a system: the sump is ventilated, air-tested, pumped down and de-sludged by hand and wet-vacuum, then jet-washed and disinfected before the overhead tank is done in turn. Blocks that want just the roof units serviced can look at our water tank cleaning in Mayur Vihar Phase 2. On this page the focus is the underground sump that starts the loop.

Why the underground sump matters most on a Phase 2 block

In a linked sump-and-overhead setup, the sump is where sediment first drops out of the incoming supply, and every pump cycle stirs some of it toward the rooftop tank above. Dozens of flats draw from one block reservoir, so the volume passing through keeps a fresh silt layer forming on the sump floor. Skipping the buried tank means the roof tank simply refills with the same disturbed sediment.

Sealed under the block, these sumps also hold stale air and, being shared by many families, tend to go long stretches with nobody responsible for booking a clean. The settled sludge shelters biofilm that a rinse cannot lift. Only a full drain, scrub and sanitise breaks the cycle and keeps the overhead tank genuinely clean afterwards.

How we do it — our 6-step process

• 1. Drainage We open and ventilate the sump, then pump out the standing water down to the sediment layer.
• 2. Sludge Removal Years of settled silt, sand and sludge are scooped and cleared out manually.
• 3. Vacuum Cleaning Industrial wet-vacuums clean the loosened dirt from the floor and corners.
• 4. High-Pressure Jet A high-pressure jet wash lifts caked mud, scale and biofilm off the walls and floor.
• 5. Anti-Bacterial Wash A disinfectant wash sanitises the sump before it refills.
• 6. Quality Report Before and after photos are sent to you on WhatsApp.

The water in Mayur Vihar Phase 2: what our crews see

Every locality in Delhi stores different water, and that decides how fast a tank fouls. This is Mayur Vihar Phase 2’s profile from The Delhi Water Index, built from our field observations across 250+ localities.

Common questions from Mayur Vihar Phase 2 customers

“We clean the roof tank but the water still runs cloudy. Why?” Almost always because the underground sump below it was skipped. The pump lifts settled silt from the buried tank straight into the freshly cleaned roof tank. Doing the sump and overhead together as one job is what fixes cloudy water on a Phase 2 block.

“What does sump cleaning cost for a CGHS block here?” From ₹1,499 for a sump up to 1,000 litres, priced up by capacity. A shared block sump of 1,001 to 2,000 litres is ₹1,799 to 2,200. When we do the sump and rooftop tank together, or several pockets in a run, the combined rate is lower.

“How often should a shared block sump be cleaned?” For a sump feeding dozens of flats we suggest every six months, since the throughput keeps rebuilding the silt bed. Blocks on borewell top-up in summer are better on a four-month cycle. We can put the block on a standing reminder if the RWA wants.

“Do you coordinate with the RWA for access to the pump room?” Yes. We plan the visit with the RWA or block secretary so the pump room and sump cover are open on arrival, and schedule the drain around the pump timing so flats stay supplied from the overhead tank throughout.

“Is the confined-space entry safe for an older Phase 2 sump?” It is when done to procedure. We ventilate and air-test the sump before anyone enters, use the right lighting and gear inside, and check the walls for cracks while cleaning, so entry is controlled from start to finish.
