Water Tank Cleaning
For apartments, offices, independent houses and schools in Gulshan 2: trained cleaners, professional equipment and a clear price agreed before work starts.
Water Tank Cleaning is as much about health as appearance, which is why Dhaka Cleaners treats it as planned, careful work rather than a quick job. In Gulshan 2, we begin by understanding the problem and the property, explain any preparation you need to make and follow safety steps designed to protect your family, staff and pets. Afterwards, you receive practical advice on keeping the problem from returning.
Gulshan 2 is the northern part of Gulshan, with its busy circle, corporate towers, restaurants and upmarket apartment buildings, and Baridhara's diplomatic zone just beyond. United Hospital is also here. Dhaka Cleaners works in Gulshan 2 for households, offices and hospitality businesses that expect careful, well-organised cleaning with minimal disruption to residents, staff or guests.
Like much of Dhaka, Gulshan 2 deals with two stubborn problems: fine dust from roads and building sites, and damp during the monsoon. Dust settles on grills, fans, ledges and floors within days, while humidity encourages mould in bathrooms, musty cupboards and stains that set quickly. When we plan water tank cleaning here, we look at how these conditions have affected your property and focus the time where it will make the most noticeable difference.
High-rise luxury apartments dominate the residential roads, while the area around the circle and Kemal Ataturk Avenue holds offices, restaurants, cafés and showrooms. United Hospital adds a healthcare presence.
Homes typically need deep cleaning, marble and tile floor care, sofa and carpet shampooing, and move-in or move-out cleaning. Restaurants and cafés need kitchen hood degreasing and pest control, and offices want scheduled after-hours cleaning.
Health and safety shape every stage, from the first inspection and preparation advice to the aftercare guidance you receive once the work is complete.
We confirm the number, type and approximate size of the tanks, the access points and the best time to shut off the water.
The inlet is closed and the remaining water is pumped out; where practical it can be used for flushing or washing floors.
Sediment and sludge are removed from the tank floor with scoops, buckets and a sludge pump.
Walls, floor, ceiling and pipe mouths are scrubbed with stiff brushes and rinsed, with a pressure washer where suitable.
A chlorine-based disinfectant is applied and left for its contact time, then the tank is rinsed to clear any excess.
The tank is refilled, covers and vents are checked, and you are told about any defects we found.
The job is planned with you or the building committee so the water is off for as short a time as practical.
Removing the sludge layer reduces the grit and discolouration that reach taps, showers and filters.
Cleaner storage means water filters, geysers and taps clog with deposits less quickly.
Ventilation, a standby colleague at the opening and safe lighting are standard for every underground reservoir.
Equipment: The team uses submersible and sludge pumps, stiff long-handled brushes, scoops and buckets, a pressure washer where the tank lining allows it, and low-voltage or battery lighting for work inside.
Starting from ৳ 3,000 per tank
Water Tank Cleaning starts from ৳ 3,000 per tank. The final price depends on the size of the area or the number of tanks, how established the problem is and access, and it is confirmed after a free assessment.
Gulshan 2 sits close to Banani, Baridhara, Niketan and Gulshan 1, and Dhaka Cleaners plans work across these areas together. Homes can usually choose daytime or weekend slots, while shops and offices often prefer early-morning or after-hours visits; both are offered where available. Same-day service may be possible, subject to team availability, so call or WhatsApp to check.
We clean in Gulshan 2 throughout the week. Same-day requests depend on team availability, and weekend and evening slots fill quickly.
Apartment towers usually require lift booking and visitor entry at reception. Roads close to the diplomatic zone may have extra security checks, so allow time for the team to be cleared.
Common questions about water tank cleaning in Gulshan 2.
Yes, move-out cleaning can be timed to finish before a handover or inspection. Tell us the handover date, the size of the flat and whether it is furnished, and we will suggest a slot; short-notice requests are subject to team availability.
Someone who can open the roof and reservoir access and operate the pump should be available at the start and end of the job. In apartment buildings this is usually the caretaker or a member of the building committee.
Yes. Plastic tanks are cleaned with softer brushes and without abrasive tools that could scratch the inner surface. They are often quicker to clean than concrete tanks.
We agree a date and time with the building committee, manager or caretaker, and can provide a short notice for residents. The pump is switched off beforehand, and residents are advised to store water for cooking, drinking and toilets until refilling is complete.
Often, especially after flooding, a pipe repair or a sudden change in the colour or smell of the water. Short-notice visits are subject to team availability. We will ask about the tank type, size and access so the right equipment comes with the team.
