Your society overhead tank in Pragati Vihar is the last stop before every flat’s taps, and shared banks of RCC and plastic tanks need regular desludging. KaamGenie cleans terrace tank banks across the DDA and government flats in the Lodhi Road belt. From ₹699.
Pragati Vihar is a planned DDA and government-housing pocket of flats and quarters in the Lodhi Road and Nizamuddin belt. It sits on the main DJB pipeline network, so piped supply is relatively steady, though hardness still varies from block to block. Housing here relies on society sumps feeding rooftop overhead tanks — RCC and plastic — and shared banks of tanks with older plumbing let sediment and biofilm build up on walls and floors over time.
KaamGenie cleans these rooftop tanks the thorough way — drain, scoop the sludge, high-pressure jet-wash the walls, hand-scrub the corners, then a food-grade disinfectant wash, finished with before and after photos and a dated certificate. This is our dedicated page for water tank cleaning in Pragati Vihar, focused specifically on the overhead (rooftop) tanks that feed your taps.
Even on steady pipeline supply, water carries fine pipe sediment that settles at the bottom of a rooftop tank, and Pragati Vihar’s tanks are older RCC and plastic banks that have collected years of it. RCC tanks in particular can shed a fine grit from the concrete as they age. Because these overhead tanks feed the flats directly with no filter after them, that sediment reaches the taps.
These are shared terrace tank banks serving many flats, so no single household tends to them and they get overlooked for years. Warm, part-full tanks with older, sometimes ill-fitting lids grow biofilm along the waterline. For a society bank, an annual or twice-yearly desludge and disinfection is the sensible schedule, and it is easiest to arrange through the RWA.
No travel charge anywhere in Pragati Vihar. The final price is confirmed on the call before we come — it depends only on tank size and access.

“Do you clean the whole society terrace tank bank in Pragati Vihar?” Yes, cleaning shared terrace banks is a core part of what we do here. We send a larger crew and clean each tank in the bank in turn, so flats are not left without water for long. The RWA or block secretary can book it and we quote for the full terrace in one visit.
“How much does it cost per tank on a shared bank?” A single 1000L rooftop tank starts at ₹699, and for a bank of several tanks we quote a per-tank rate that usually works out lower. Each tank gets the full drain, sludge removal, jet wash, food-grade disinfectant and a dated certificate. We give the society one clear quote before we start.
“Can you clean without cutting off the whole block’s water?” Yes, that is why we stagger a shared bank. We clean one tank while the others keep supplying the block, then move on, so most flats keep water throughout. For a single tank the block is only low for about ninety minutes, timed for when it is naturally emptiest.
“Is the disinfectant safe for all the families in the block?” Yes. We use a food-grade disinfectant made for drinking-water storage and rinse it out fully before the tanks refill. Since these overhead tanks feed every flat with no filter after them, a proper clean and disinfection protects the whole block’s drinking water at once.
“Do you provide a certificate the RWA can keep on file?” Yes. Every clean comes with a dated certificate plus before and after photos of each tank, which is exactly what an RWA needs for its maintenance records. It documents when the terrace bank was last serviced and helps the society keep to a schedule.
