Tank Demolition Costs in Bangalore
Demolition Cost Options: With Materials or Without Materials
Please Read This Carefully
When you choose “With Materials”, we carefully dismantle and recover reusable items from your tanks—such as steel plates, reinforcement bars, valves, pipelines, and fittings. The salvage value of these materials is deducted from your overall demolition cost, allowing you to save significantly.
If you prefer “Without Materials”, you simply pay the full demolition cost without any deductions.
The tank demolition cost in Bangalore is generally calculated on a cost per square foot or per ton basis, starting from ₹50 – ₹200, depending on the tank size, material (RCC, steel, or composite), accessibility, and site conditions.
Demolishing water tanks, overhead storage tanks, or large industrial tanks may involve higher costs due to reinforced concrete, structural steel, height of the structure, and the need for heavy machinery for safe dismantling. For massive storage tanks, chemical tanks, or underground tanks, demolition costs are higher because of hazardous material handling, confined space safety requirements, and extensive debris removal.

Tank Demolition Payout – Material Value Exchange
During overhead water tank and underground chemical/oil tank demolitions, many materials can be recovered and reused. From steel, aluminum, copper piping, pumps, valves, electrical fittings, and industrial components, the resale value of these items is deducted from the total demolition cost, helping you save while promoting safe and sustainable practices.
Recoverable Materials & Estimated Payout
| Material | Estimated Payout (₹) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Structural Steel / TMT | ₹28,000 – ₹35,000 / Metric Ton | Recovered from tank frames, supports, and access structures |
| Aluminum Sheets / Panels | ₹2,000 – ₹8,000 / Unit | Used for tank cladding or exterior panels |
| Copper / Piping Systems | ₹500 – ₹700 / Kg | Pumps, piping, valves, and fittings |
| Pumps & Motors | ₹5,000 – ₹50,000 / Unit | Water pumps, chemical pumps, and motors |
| Electrical Panels & Fittings | ₹5,000 – ₹50,000 / Unit | Switchboards, wiring, and control panels |
| Safety & Ancillary Items | ₹1,000 – ₹10,000 / Unit | Ladders, railings, valves, safety equipment |
Total Tank Demolition Cost – Recovered Material Value = Final Payable Amount
This ensures fair pricing while maximizing the reuse of valuable materials and supporting sustainable demolition practices for tanks.
