Xu is a plotted residential pocket of Greater Noida — independent houses on a planned grid, each with a rooftop overhead tank and a sump below, running on piped Ganga supply with a hard borewell for backup. Because that backup runs hard, Xu tanks scale faster — we scrub the build-up out and disinfect, on the homes of Xu, Greater Noida, from ₹699 onwards.
Xu is one of the planned Greek-lettered residential sectors of Greater Noida, laid out mostly as independent plotted homes on a quiet, regular grid. Each house stores water in a rooftop overhead tank fed by an underground sump, and while the mainstay supply is piped Ganga water, the line is not always full — so households lean on a borewell, and in this part of Greater Noida that groundwater runs distinctly hard. Hard water carries dissolved minerals that settle inside a tank as a chalky, gritty scale, layered on top of the usual sediment and biofilm. Every time the borewell tops up the tank, a little more of that scale builds on the walls, the floor and around the inlet.
What people in Xu tend to miss is that hard-water scale is not just unsightly — it bakes onto the walls, narrows the outlets and gives biofilm a rough surface to cling to. A quick rinse does nothing for it; the crust only comes off with proper mechanical scrubbing. The sump is usually the worst, because mineral sediment settles thick at the bottom and goes untouched for years, and since the overhead tank fills from that sump, the grit travels straight up to the taps. We come prepared specifically for this — hand-scrubbing the crusted walls and floor, vacuuming out the mineral sludge, then disinfecting so the tank actually starts clean rather than just looking rinsed.
On an Xu tank the clean has to deal with scale as well as sediment. We drain the tank, then scrub the walls and floor by hand to lift the hard-water mineral crust along with the settled silt and biofilm, vacuum out the loosened sludge, disinfect with food-grade chlorine and rinse clean. We do the sump below the same way, since that is where the mineral sediment settles thickest. The scrubbing is what makes the difference in a hard-water pocket like Xu — you simply cannot rinse scale away. You see clear before and after on every tank we open.
An individual overhead tank starts at ₹699 and takes about 90 minutes; heavy scaling can add a little time but the price holds for a standard tank, with sumps priced higher by size and sludge load. We quote on sight before starting. The crew comes equipped to tackle scale — with its own pump, vacuum and food-grade chemicals — so the tank is left genuinely clean, not just looking better.
Standard Xu tank: about 90 minutes door-to-door for an overhead tank, 2-3 hours for a combined sump + overhead, and longer for high-rise society reservoirs. 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.
"Our Xu tank has a hard white crust from borewell water — can you remove it?" Yes — that is hard-water scale, and it is common in the borewell pockets across Xu and Greater Noida. A rinse will not touch it; it has to be hand-scrubbed off the walls and floor, which is part of how we clean. We lift the scale along with the sediment, vacuum the loosened sludge and disinfect with food-grade chlorine, then show before and after. A standard overhead tank is still from ₹699. Call 95603 66362.
"Does the scaling come back, and how often should we clean in Xu?" Where the borewell runs hard the scale does build again over time, so in an Xu hard-water pocket a clean every few months keeps it from thickening into a stubborn crust. Catching it regularly means lighter scrubbing each time and water that stays clear. We can set up a schedule that suits your tank. A standard overhead tank is from ₹699; call 95603 66362 to plan it.
"How quickly can you reach Xu?" Usually same-day if you call before noon, since Xu is quick for our crews to reach within Greater Noida. A single overhead tank takes about 90 minutes from ₹699; heavy scaling or a sump-and-tank job runs a little longer and we tell you the window at booking. Call 95603 66362.
