How overhead tank cleaning works
- 1
Tell us what you notice
Call or message us on WhatsApp and tell us the tank type and what you have noticed in the water or on the outside of the tank, so we arrive prepared.
- 2
Emptying and first check
The tank is emptied, then the lid, the inner walls, the float and the water outlet are checked before cleaning begins.
- 3
Cleaning the inner walls
Algae and accumulated sediment are removed from the walls and floor of the tank with suitable tools, with particular care given to the bottom corners where sediment collects.
- 4
Rinsing and restart
After cleaning the tank is rinsed thoroughly so no trace of sediment or cleaning remains, then it is refilled.
An overhead tank is different, and so is cleaning it
- We clean plastic and concrete tanks on the roof
- We check the lid, float and outlet during the clean
- Algae on the wall need scrubbing, not just rinsing
- We take your request by phone call or WhatsApp message
- We inspect and clean the tank as one job
The service in Ibn Dihman
Homes in a village like Ibn Dihman usually rely on overhead tanks to store water, and these tanks catch strong sun and dust from the air. Water from your tap may carry sediment or look strange if the tank is not cleaned regularly. Al Raya's team inspects the tank outside and in, removes deposits and dirt, and checks the walls, base and foundation. What the first inspection finds shows how much cleaning is needed.
Ibn Dihman is a small settlement in Al-Ahsa governorate in the Eastern Province, close to Muraytibah, Sudah and Al Jishshah.
Salty deposits and fine dust gather at the tank base where water cools most.

Questions about Overhead tank cleaning in Ibn Dihman
Algae grow when light, water and warmth come together. An overhead tank sits in full sun and its plastic walls are often pale or translucent, letting light through and encouraging algae on the inner wall. A ground tank is buried or enclosed and receives too little light for algae to take hold.
Overhead tank lids are often not fully airtight, or they have a small vent. Fine dust enters through these points over time and settles on the tank floor. The seasonal winds bring more dust onto the roof, adding to what reaches the tank.
Yes. A small tank is cleaned entirely through the top opening. A larger tank may need entry through the hatch or longer tools to reach the floor and corners. In both cases the work starts with a full empty and a check before cleaning begins.
Yes. The lid is the main entry point for dust and insects, and it is checked during the clean to see that it closes properly. If it is cracked or loose, that is a main reason for the water being contaminated again and the householder is told about it.
Tell us the tank type if you know it, plastic or concrete, and what you have noticed in the water or on the outside of the tank such as a colour, a smell or algae showing through the wall. Tell us your location so we know what the job needs before we arrive.
If the water looks unusual, smells strange, or clouds up when you fill containers, call Al Raya to check the tank. You may need cleaning or the issue may be minor.
Say the tank size roughly, where exactly it is, whether you see dust or colour or smell change, and send a photo on WhatsApp if you can.
