Tank Cleaning Before Moving In

We clean society overhead tanks, sumps and commercial storage tanks across Dwarka Sector 18's group-housing societies, offices and DDA flats, same day where possible. Starting ₹699.
Sector 18 has a more mixed-use feel than its purely residential neighbours — alongside the CGHS group-housing societies there are commercial and institutional pockets with offices and larger buildings that carry sizeable storage tanks and sumps of their own. The societies run the familiar 5,000-10,000L overhead-plus-sump setup on DJB piped supply, but the commercial buildings often have big ground-level sumps feeding pumped overhead tanks that see heavy daily draw. That daily churn moves a lot of grit into the sumps, so the commercial jobs here are frequently the biggest sediment we deal with in Dwarka. The DDA flats and residential blocks are steadier and mostly need routine annual cleans.
For the commercial and office buildings we schedule cleaning early morning or on a weekend so we can shut the sump without interrupting the working day. Residential society bookings run on the usual mid-morning RWA slots, and we keep the two streams on separate crews.
For a standard 1000-litre overhead tank, the whole job takes about 90 minutes from doorbell to pack-up. Underground sumps take longer — usually 2 to 2.5 hours depending on sludge. You don’t need to provide anything: we bring our own water for the rinse, vacuums, jet pumps, food-grade disinfectant and gloves, and send before/after photos on WhatsApp.
The office and commercial buildings in Sector 18 typically have a large ground-level sump feeding pumped overhead tanks, and with heavy daytime water draw those sumps accumulate serious sediment between cleans. We pump the sump dry, remove the settled sludge, pressure-scrub the walls and floor and sanitise before it is put back into service, then do the overhead tanks fed from it. Because the volumes are larger than a residential block, a commercial combined sump-plus-overhead job runs at the upper end and beyond the standard ₹4,500-6,000 band depending on capacity — we quote on site after checking the sump size. We schedule these for early morning or the weekend so the building's water is not cut during working hours.
On the residential side, Sector 18's CGHS societies and DDA flats are steadier work — routine annual cleans of 5,000-10,000L shared overhead tanks and their sumps. A shared overhead tank alone is ₹2,500-3,000, and the combined overhead-plus-sump job is ₹4,500-6,000, working out to roughly ₹120-180 per flat across a block. Individual DDA flat tanks that aren't on a society system are ₹699-1,499. We keep the residential crew separate from the commercial one so a society booking is never delayed by a big office job running long, and residents get their usual mid-morning slot.
“Do you clean tanks for offices in Sector 18?” Yes. We handle the large ground sumps and pumped overhead tanks in the commercial pocket, scheduled early morning or weekends so working hours aren't affected. We quote on site by sump size.
“Are commercial cleans priced like residential ones?” No — commercial sumps here hold much larger volumes, so they run at the top of and beyond the ₹4,500-6,000 band. Residential society tanks stay in the standard ranges.
“Will a big office job delay my society booking?” No. We run separate crews for commercial and residential work, so your mid-morning RWA slot isn't held up by an office job.
