  • Understanding local water contaminants: Different regions have distinct water sources (e.g., groundwater, surface water) that carry specific contaminants, such as agricultural runoff, industrial pollutants, or high mineral content. Our local experts know what to look for and how to address these unique challenges effectively.
  • Knowledge of local regulations & standards: Public health and safety regulations regarding water quality and tank maintenance often have varying interpretations and enforcement levels in Kenya. Our professional cleaning services team are always up-to-date with these specific requirements set by authorities like KEBS and NEMA.
  • Familiarity with common local issues: Our experts handle every tank type, from underground concrete basins to modern plastic rooftop units and massive industrial reservoirs. We recognize regional challenges—such as hard water scaling and specific bacterial growth—allowing us to apply the precise methods needed to clean thoroughly while safeguarding your property.

Our Comprehensive Water Tank Cleaning Coverage Across Kenya

A. Nairobi and Surrounding Counties (Kiambu, Machakos, Kajiado)

Nairobi and its vibrant environs face distinct challenges: high population density, intermittent water supply, and diverse tank types. From rooftop plastic tanks in apartment complexes (Westlands, Kilimani, Runda) to large underground concrete reservoirs, our teams have encountered and cleaned them all. We provide thorough water tank cleaning in Nairobi and extend services to the rapidly growing neighboring counties of Kiambu, Machakos, and Kajiado, understanding their unique blend of urban and peri-urban water needs.

Local Expertise Highlight: Our technicians are masters of logistics in the capital. They are intimately familiar with city council water rationing schedules, access protocols for apartment complexes and gated communities, and the specific equipment needed for varying property sizes, ensuring a smooth, efficient cleaning process every time.

B. The Coastal Region (Mombasa, Kilifi, Kwale, Malindi)

The beautiful Kenyan coast, with its high humidity and saline-rich water sources like boreholes, presents distinct challenges for water tank maintenance. These conditions create a perfect breeding ground for aggressive algae growth and lead to the buildup of specific mineral deposits that can affect water taste and quality. Our professional tank cleaning services in Mombasa tackle these issues.

“Our hotel in Mombasa relies heavily on clean water. KiTank Cleaning provides consistent, reliable commercial water tank cleaning that meets our high standards. Fantastic service!” – Mohammed A., Hotel Manager, Nyali, Mombasa

We have extensive experience serving the residential and hospitality sectors in Mombasa, Kilifi, Kwale, and Malindi. Our local expertise includes a deep understanding of how the humid climate accelerates contamination and the best methods for descaling tanks affected by saline water, ensuring your coastal property has access to fresh, clean water.

C. Western Kenya (Kisumu, Eldoret, Kakamega, Bungoma)

We proudly serve Western Kenya, offering expert solutions for the Lake Victoria basin and agricultural heartlands. Our local teams understand regional challenges, from surface water contaminants to agricultural runoff.

  • We provide specialized water tank cleaning in Kisumu, tackling issues like algae and sediment from the lake.

D. Rift Valley Region (Nakuru, Naivasha, Kericho, Baringo)

The Great Rift Valley is geographically diverse, and so are its water sources. Geothermal activity in areas like Naivasha and Baringo can lead to high concentrations of minerals such as fluoride and calcium in the water, which can build up as hard scale inside tanks.

Our water tank cleaning in Nakuru teams are well-versed in these unique water quality profiles. We provide specialised cleaning for tanks in urban centres, vast farmlands, and institutions across the Rift, ensuring optimal water storage conditions.

KiTank’s Expertise Highlight: Our awareness of regional water characteristics, like variations in mineral content, allows us to use the most effective, non-corrosive cleaning agents. We cater to the specific needs of large-scale agricultural water storage as well as residential tanks.

E. Central Kenya (Thika, Nyeri, Meru, Embu)

Central Kenya is a hub of agricultural and industrial activity. This mix of land use creates a diverse range of water storage and quality challenges. From large industrial water reservoirs in Thika to residential tanks in the highlands of Nyeri and Meru, each requires a skilled approach.

Our local teams providing water tank cleaning services in Thika and throughout Central Kenya are equipped to handle the demands of residential, commercial, and industrial clients. We understand the importance of maintaining pure water for both domestic consumption and industrial processes and have the expertise to service the wide variety of tanks found in this dynamic region.

And Beyond! Serving All 47 Counties of Kenya

KiTank’s Professional Step-by-Step Water Tank Cleaning Process in Kenya: What to Expect

Our professional team follows a systematic process to ensure the complete removal of sediment, sludge, biofilm, and harmful bacteria, restoring your water tank to optimal condition. Here’s a detailed breakdown of our water tank cleaning process.

Step 1: Initial Assessment & Safety Protocols

Upon arrival, our team conducts a full inspection of the tank’s structure and the extent of contamination. We then implement strict safety protocols for working in a confined space, including wearing the necessary Personal Protective Equipment (PPE).

Step 2: Controlled Draining and Sludge Removal

We begin by draining the tank in a controlled manner. To conserve water, we can help you redirect it for irrigation or other cleaning tasks. Once empty, our team uses specialized sludge pumps to meticulously remove the thick sediment and debris from the tank floor—eliminating the primary breeding ground for bacteria.

Step 3: High-Pressure Scrubbing & Surface Cleaning

Using powerful jet washers, we blast all internal surfaces—the walls, ceiling, and floor—with a high-pressure water stream. This process dislodges ingrained algae, stubborn biofilm, and grime from every corner, removing contaminants that are often invisible to the naked eye.

Step 4: Disinfection & Sanitization

We then apply a safe water tank cleaning chemical disinfectant with non-toxic, food-grade ingredients. This sanitizing agent is powerful enough to eliminate 99.9% of harmful bacteria and viruses yet is completely safe for potable water systems.

Step 5: Thorough Rinsing and Final Inspection

The tank is rinsed multiple times to ensure every trace of cleaning agent is flushed out. Afterwards, our on-site supervisor conducts a detailed final inspection to guarantee the tank is spotless and meets our highest standards of cleanliness.

Step 6: Water Refilling and System Reconnection

Once the tank passes inspection, we begin refilling it with a fresh, clean water supply. We then ensure all pipes are securely reconnected and your water system is fully operational, leaving it ready for immediate use.

Step 7: Post-Service Report and Maintenance Advice

Finally, we provide you with a summary of the work completed and our observations on your tank’s condition. Our technicians will also offer crucial advice on how to maintain your water quality and prevent future issues, empowering you to keep your water safer for longer.
