We clean water tanks by cleaning the sediment off the floor with a vacuum type tool for increased water capacity and water quality. If the water quality cannot be improved, eg. if the water is contaminated, we empty the tank and can then refill with town water.
​
We are an agent for Tankmaker Water Tanks, who have a full range available - from round tanks to slim line tanks. We can also do concrete tank demolitions and new tank installs.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
​1. Do you need the tank to be empty / how much water needs to be in the tank / does it need to be full?
A full tank is great, we can’t clean an empty tank as we need at least half a metre of water in there at the time of the clean.
​
2. How do you clean a tank?
We use a vacuum type of tool that sucks any sediment/dirt from the bottom. However, if the water is contaminated (leaves, dead animal etc), the tank needs to be emptied out and refilled with a new load of water. You will generally lose approximately 30cm worth of water during a clean and this is just pumped out onto the grass.
​
3. Do you sanitise/treat or filter the water during a clean?
We can use a tank safe product that will kill any bacteria in the water if requested, however we do
not filter the water.
​
4. Do you service our area?
We service the Lockyer Valley, and can also travel to Toowoomba, Esk and Ipswich areas.
​
5. How often do I need my water tank cleaned?
Water tanks should technically be cleaned annually when it is drinking water.
​
6. What happens when you don’t clean your water tank?
If a water tank is left uncleaned, algae and bacteria could start to line the interior, sediment will then start to build up in the
bottom of the tank.
​
7. How long does a tank clean take?
Usually it takes around an hour for us to clean a tank, it can just depend on how dirty it is.
​
8. Do you need to be able to get a truck in for access to my tank?
No, for our tank cleans we have a ute and a trailer.
​
9. Can you demolish water tanks and supply new ones?
Yes!
​
10. Do you do repairs on concrete tanks?
We can, however we have found over the years that it is generally just a bandaid fix and the leak will eventually open back up. So we normally recommend demolishing the existing tank and getting a brand new poly tank.
​
11. Do you offer a discounted price if I have more than one tank cleaned?
​​Usually 1 or 2 tanks is the same price. However, if you have 3 and upwards cleaned, we definitely offer a discount for this. It depends on location and how many tanks, so please contact us for a quote!
