Water Tank Cleaning
For apartments and flats in Gulshan 2: trained cleaners, professional equipment and a clear price agreed before work starts.
If you are responsible for one of the many apartments and flats in Gulshan 2, you probably already know where dirt and wear build up fastest. Tell us, and Dhaka Cleaners will focus the water tank cleaning there first, then work through the rest of the agreed scope. Photos sent on WhatsApp help us estimate the time and team size before anyone visits.
Choosing Apartment when you request a quote tells us a lot, but the details still matter: the age of the building, the floor and wall finishes, how many people use the space and any recent work such as painting or repairs. Share what you can and Dhaka Cleaners will suggest a scope for water tank cleaning in Gulshan 2 that is realistic for your property, your timing and your budget.
Apartment buildings usually share one large underground reservoir and one or more overhead tanks, so the job affects every household at once. We plan it with the building committee or manager, suggest a date and time that suits most residents, and can provide a short notice to share in the residents' group. The caretaker switches off the pump, our team cleans the reservoir and rooftop tank in sequence, and water is restored as soon as refilling allows. We also check that manhole covers, often set in the car park or driveway, close securely.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Walls, floor and ceiling are disinfected after scrubbing, not simply rinsed.
We report cracked covers, missing vent mesh and rusting ladders that let contamination into the tank.
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.

Same-day service may be possible, subject to team availability, so call or WhatsApp to check.

Common questions about water tank cleaning for apartments and flats 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.
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.
Usually for the few hours it takes to drain, clean, disinfect and refill the tank, plus the time your pump needs to fill it again. We plan the job with you so the shutdown is as short as practical. We also suggest storing water in advance for cooking, drinking and toilets.
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.
