Friends Colony East bungalow sumps, West block kothi overhead tanks, the Ashram-adjacent lanes — we clean tanks across every Friends Colony pocket. ₹600 starting, same-day usually possible.
Friends Colony — both East and West — is one of the most established residential pockets in South Delhi. Large bungalow plots, mostly built in the 60s and 70s, almost all with substantial underground sumps under driveways or front gardens plus rooftop tanks. Note that this is different from New Friends Colony (separate adjacent colony, which we serve at /new-friends-colony) — Friends Colony East and West are the older, separate pair.
What we see most: long-time resident families with sumps that were last touched decades ago. Water source is mostly DJB pipeline plus borewell, both running through tanks that have collected years of sediment. First-time-in-many-years sump cleaning is the most common booking pattern in Friends Colony.
Friends Colony bungalows are big. Many have multiple overhead tanks — master bedroom side, kids’ floor, kitchen-and-utility side — each filled from a single large underground sump. So a full water-system cleaning isn’t just one tank, it’s typically 3-5 tanks across the property. We schedule these as half-day visits.
Pricing for the full bungalow service usually runs ₹3500-5000, which sounds high until you compare it to per-tank booking. Annual contracts make a lot of sense for Friends Colony — two full-service visits a year + one mid-year quick check, all bundled, with a single GST invoice on whatever billing schedule suits the household.
Standard Friends Colony tank: about 90 minutes door-to-door for an overhead tank, 2-3 hours for a combined sump + overhead. We bring everything — vacuums, jet pumps, food-grade chlorine disinfectant, scrubbing brushes, rinse water. After cleaning, before-and-after WhatsApp photos and a GST invoice.
"Is Friends Colony the same as New Friends Colony for booking?" No — they’re separate adjacent colonies. Friends Colony (East and West) is the older established pair on the Ashram side. New Friends Colony is a separate colony nearby. We serve both, but with separate area pages and (slightly different building patterns). When booking, please specify which one you mean to avoid any confusion.
"Our Friends Colony East bungalow has a butler/housekeeper. Can they coordinate the cleaning?" Yes — very common in Friends Colony. Many of our regular clients here have household staff supervise. We coordinate directly with whoever you specify, share before-and-after WhatsApp photos in real-time, and send the GST invoice to whichever email the household uses for vendor payments.
"How long should an annual maintenance contract for a Friends Colony bungalow run?" Typical contract: 2 full-service visits per year (April and October, before peak summer and after monsoon) covering all overhead tanks and the underground sump. Cost runs ₹6000-8000 for the year depending on bungalow size, billed quarterly or annually. Compared to individual booking it’s a 20-25% saving, plus you get priority slots and a dedicated point of contact.
