# Now Serving Puchong: Water Tank Cleaning and Booster Pump Installation

Two of the most common calls we’ve been getting this year aren’t about leaks or clogs — they’re about **discoloured tap water** and **weak shower pressure**. Both have specific fixes, and we’re now formally offering them as full service lines.

## Why These Two, Why Now

After years of doing leak detection, drainage, and sanitary repairs across Puchong, we noticed two patterns:

1.  **Loft tanks in older Puchong landed homes are overdue.** Most have never been cleaned. The result is sediment-heavy water — brown or yellow tinges, a slightly metallic taste, and a steady reduction in water quality.
2.  **Multi-storey homes are running on undersized or absent booster pumps.** Owners live with weak upstairs showers for years because they didn’t know it was a fixable problem.

Both fixes are well within our wheelhouse, and both have a direct quality-of-life impact. So we’re highlighting them as standalone services.

## Water Tank Cleaning & Replacement

If the water from your tap looks anything other than clear, your **water storage tank** is the first suspect. Sediment accumulates at the bottom, rust forms in older metal tanks, and biofilm grows on the walls. Every refill stirs that into your home’s plumbing.

A proper clean takes half a day:

-   Drain the tank fully.
-   Remove sediment and rust.
-   Scrub internal surfaces.
-   Disinfect with measured chlorination.
-   Flush and refill.

We also handle **tank replacement** when the unit itself is beyond cleaning — pinhole leaks in stainless steel, brittle poly tanks from UV exposure, or undersized capacity for a growing household. Most replacements use **SIRIM-certified** stainless steel or poly units, sized appropriately for the home.

## Water Booster Pump Installation

If you’ve lived with weak upstairs flow for years and assumed it’s “just how the house is,” it usually isn’t. **Low water pressure** in Puchong homes is most often a gravity issue: the rise from your tank to the upstairs shower exceeds what gravity can usefully push.

A properly-sized **domestic booster pump** fixes this. Typical Puchong landed homes need 0.5 to 0.75 HP; larger or three-storey homes need 1 HP or more. Sizing depends on storeys, simultaneous outlets, and pipe diameter — not on what’s cheapest at the hardware shop.

A proper installation includes the pump itself, an **automatic controller**, a **pressure vessel** to reduce cycling, a **non-return valve**, and **bypass piping** so you have gravity supply if the pump is offline.

We work with reliable brands — Grundfos, Tsunami Pump, Wasser — and choose what fits the home rather than what we have on the shelf.

## Booking These Services

Both services start with an on-site inspection. We’ll check the actual condition — for tank cleaning, we look at sediment levels and tank structural condition; for booster pumps, we measure current pressure and rise to size correctly.

You get a written estimate after the inspection, and we proceed only with your agreement.
