Water Tank Cleaning
For apartments and flats in Khilkhet: 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 Khilkhet, 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 Khilkhet 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.
A mix of older independent houses, newer apartment buildings, and shops, restaurants and small offices along and near the main road.
Some residential lanes are too narrow for our vehicle, so the team may carry equipment from the nearest wider road. For shops and restaurants, we agree a time before opening or after closing to avoid disturbing customers.
Here is how water tank cleaning in Khilkhet usually runs, from your first message to the final check.
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.
We report cracked covers, missing vent mesh and rusting ladders that let contamination into the tank.
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.
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.

Common questions about water tank cleaning for apartments and flats in Khilkhet.
Yes, late-night or early-morning cleaning can be arranged so the restaurant is ready for service. We can include kitchen hood and exhaust fan degreasing; please share your closing time and kitchen size when you ask for a quote.
Many buildings clean their tanks every six months, and once a year is a sensible minimum. Clean sooner if the water changes colour or smell, after flooding, or if insects or debris are found in the tank.
We use a chlorine-based disinfectant suited to water storage tanks, give it the contact time it needs and then rinse the tank before refilling. A faint chlorine smell for the first day is normal and fades as the water is used.
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.
