Water Tank Cleaning
For apartments and flats in Mirpur 10: trained cleaners, professional equipment and a clear price agreed before work starts.
Hygiene problems often start in places people rarely look: drains, service ducts, store rooms, rooftop tanks and underground reservoirs. Dhaka Cleaners provides water tank cleaning for apartments and flats in Mirpur 10 with an inspection first, clear preparation advice and methods chosen for the building and the people using it, including children, staff and pets.
For apartments and flats, effective water tank cleaning depends on covering the whole system, not just the obvious spot. That can mean every tank serving the building, or every kitchen, drain and entry point that pests use. Dhaka Cleaners maps these out with you, agrees timing with anyone affected, such as residents, staff or the building committee, and leaves you with clear advice on keeping the problem from coming back.
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 commercial core of shopping centres, shops, bank branches, clinics, restaurants and offices around the roundabout, surrounded by dense apartment buildings.
Stopping near the roundabout is very difficult during the day, so the team usually unloads on a side road. Shopping centres and office buildings may require permission from management and set working hours.
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.
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.
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.
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

Common questions about water tank cleaning for apartments and flats in Mirpur 10.
Yes. We can set up daily, weekly or monthly cleaning, or supply a trained cleaner under a longer contract. Visits can be timed before opening or after closing, and a short site visit helps us agree the scope and quote.
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.
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.
In most buildings, yes. The team usually cleans the underground reservoir and the overhead tank in sequence during the same visit, so the water only needs to be off once. Very large or heavily silted tanks can take longer, which we explain in advance.
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.
