Why it matters

What collects in your tank doesn’t stay there

Most homes and buildings store water in a sump and an overhead tank. Both are out of sight, so sediment and build-up can go unnoticed for years.

  • 01

    It builds up gradually

    Fine particles carried in by the supply settle on the tank floor every time it refills.

  • 02

    It can be stirred up

    Incoming water can disturb the layer, which is one reason for cloudy water or grit at the tap.

  • 03

    It hides the tank floor

    A thick layer makes cracks, damage and other problems harder to spot.

Pricing

A clear quotation before any work starts

Every tank is different, so we quote based on your tank rather than a one-size price. You will know the cost before you agree to anything.

What affects the price

Tank capacity
Larger tanks take longer to drain, clean, rinse and refill.
Number of tanks and sumps
Several tanks or a sump plus overhead tank can be planned as one visit.
Access
Roof height, ladder access, hatch size and how far equipment must be carried all affect the work.
Condition
A tank that has not been cleaned for a long time usually holds more sediment and deposits.
Tank type
Plastic, concrete and steel tanks are cleaned differently.
Location
Travel to the property is taken into account.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

See all questions

How often should a water tank be cleaned?

There is no single interval that suits every tank. It depends on the quality of the incoming supply, how much sediment builds up, whether the tank is well covered, and how many people use the water. Regular visual inspection is the best guide; many owners plan a clean at least once a year and adjust from there. We can suggest a sensible interval after seeing your tank.

What kinds of tanks do you clean?

We clean domestic and building water storage tanks and sumps. Tell us the tank type (for example plastic, concrete or steel), its approximate capacity and how it is accessed when you book, so we can plan the work.

How long will my water be off?

It depends on the tank's size, condition and access, and on the service. We confirm the expected interruption before work begins so you can store water for essential use.

What do I need to do before the cleaning?

Make sure the tank or sump can be reached safely, know where the main valve and any pump switch are, and store some water for drinking and essential use. Our preparation guide covers this in more detail.

How much does tank cleaning cost?

The price depends on the service, tank capacity, number of tanks, access and the condition of the tank. Because these vary so much, we provide a quotation once we understand your tank. We usually work from the details in your booking request and arrange a site assessment for larger jobs.
