Water Tank Cleaning in Sitapuri

What we see most in Sitapuri

Sitapuri is one of West Delhi’s densest residential pockets — narrow lanes, tall builder floors, and one sump often feeding five or six families. The borewell supply here is hard, so scale coats the tank walls while sandy sediment settles at the base. Rooftops are crammed with tanks that get full sun and grow algae fast. We regularly find missing or cracked lids, mesh chewed away letting insects in, and sumps that have not been opened in years holding a deep layer of sludge.

Because Sitapuri plots are so tight, the sumps are cramped and shared, and cleaning stalls over who should pay. We take on the coordination, drain the sump right down, lift out the settled silt, scrub the walls and disinfect. Combined with a rooftop clean, the whole vertical stack of homes finally draws clear water instead of gritty, off-tasting supply.

How long does it take?

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.

Dense builder floors mean neglected shared sumps

In Sitapuri’s packed lanes, a single underground sump commonly serves five or six flats stacked above it, and shared ownership means the sump can go years without a clean. Silt, scale and biofilm collect right in the water everyone drinks. We arrange one visit for the whole building, drain the sump, vacuum the sediment, scrub every wall and disinfect. Split between families the cost per home is minimal, and the difference in water clarity is immediate.

Hard-water scale on Sitapuri rooftop tanks

Sitapuri’s rooftops bake in full sun and its borewell water is hard, so overhead tanks develop both algae along the waterline and a chalky scale on the walls. That mix taints the taste and can trigger stomach upsets. We drain the tank, scrub off the algae and mineral crust, clear the vent and overflow mesh so insects stay out, then disinfect with food-safe solution. Single tanks are usually done within a couple of hours.

Common questions from Sitapuri customers

“How much does tank cleaning cost in Sitapuri?” A single overhead tank up to 1000 litres starts at ₹699. Most Sitapuri buildings share a sump between several floors; we quote that per building and split it, so each family pays only a small share for a full clean.

“Our sump serves six flats — can you clean it in one visit?” Yes. We handle the whole building in a single booking, drain the shared sump, remove the sludge, scrub and disinfect, then do the rooftop tanks. It usually takes around half a day, and we share before-and-after photos with the residents.

“Why does my Sitapuri tank water taste off?” Usually a mix of hard-water scale, algae and settled silt sitting inside the tank. A full drain, scrub and disinfection removes all three. Given the borewell here, a clean every four to five months keeps the taste fresh and the water clear.
