Mujeeb Bagh’s iron-rich borewell water leaves an orange film inside every plastic tank and gums up float valves — then summer brings algae and overflow on top. KaamGenie clears all of it in a single rooftop visit. From ₹699.
Mujeeb Bagh is a compact colony adjoining Abul Fazal Enclave toward the Yamuna khadar side, mixing settled family homes with newer rental floors. It is entirely groundwater-dependent, and the local borewell water carries enough dissolved iron to make its presence visible: an orange film coats the inside of plastic tanks, buckets stain rusty at the waterline, and float valves gum up until refills either stop short or overflow down the walls. Summer adds algae, thriving on sunlit tank walls and iron-fed nutrients.
KaamGenie’s clean strips the tank back to bare plastic — drain, sediment out, high-pressure jetting for the iron film, scrubbing for algae patches and corners, and a food-grade disinfectant rinse that resets the biology — finished with before-and-after photos and a dated certificate. We free up the float valve while we are at it. This is our dedicated page for water tank cleaning in Mujeeb Bagh.
Dissolved iron oxidises the moment borewell water splashes into the tank, coating walls in orange and enriching the sediment. Certain bacteria feed on that iron, forming a slimy biofilm — and biofilm gives summer algae a foothold the moment sunlight reaches the water through a translucent tank wall or an ill-fitting lid. By June, an untended Mujeeb Bagh tank can smell distinctly swampy.
The overflow problem is mechanical: iron deposits stiffen the float-valve hinge, so it responds late or not at all, and precious borewell water sheets down the building side at every refill — a familiar sight in these lanes. A thorough clean removes the deposits at the source, and a darker or better-covered tank slows the algae return. We recommend a four-to-six-month cycle for this colony’s water chemistry.
No travel charge anywhere in Mujeeb Bagh. The final price is confirmed on the call before we come — it depends only on tank size and access.

We reach every pocket of Mujeeb Bagh — and there’s no travel charge to any of them:
“Our tank overflows every time it refills. Is that related to the dirty water?” Almost certainly — iron deposits stiffen the float valve so it shuts late. We descale and free the valve during the standard clean, and in most Mujeeb Bagh homes that alone stops the overflow. If the valve is beyond saving we tell you which replacement to buy.
“What does the cleaning cost?” ₹699 for tanks up to 500L and ₹899 for the 501-1,000L size — covering drain, sediment removal, iron-film jetting, algae scrubbing, valve attention and food-grade disinfection, plus photos and a dated certificate.
“The water smells like a pond in summer. Will cleaning stop that?” Yes — that smell is algae and biofilm metabolising in warm stored water, and physically removing them plus disinfecting resets the tank. To slow the return, keep the lid tight and consider shading the tank; sunlight through the wall is what feeds the regrowth.
“Do you clean tanks on rental floors if the tenant books?” Yes, tenants book us directly across Mujeeb Bagh’s rental floors. We need roof access and a couple of hours of supply pause; the certificate goes to whoever booked, and we can WhatsApp a copy to the landlord as well.
“How quickly can you come?” Call before 10 AM and same-day is usually manageable — the colony connects straight to our Abul Fazal and Shaheen Bagh coverage. Otherwise we book you for the following morning.
