Beside Jafrabad metro, the lanes narrow to some of the tightest in north-east Delhi, and small loft plastic tanks are wedged onto roofs barely an arm's reach apart. Even squeezed in, translucent walls take enough light to green, and KaamGenie cleans them from ₹699.
Jafrabad is one of the densest pockets in all of north-east Delhi, wrapped around its metro station and the Seelampur edge, intensely packed self-built floors and trades on very narrow lanes. Water is largely private borewell, hard and often discoloured, with DJB stretched thin across the crush. Small rooftop and loft plastic tanks store it, each feeding many families in a single building. The extreme lane density means the roofs are cramped and dusty, and the tanks, though small, take heavy shared use. Regular cleaning is genuinely needed here yet rarely happens, so sediment and film settle in.
KaamGenie drains the tank, wet-vacuums the settled silt, jet-washes at plastic-safe pressure and hand-scrubs the film with soft pads, then finishes with a anti-bacterial disinfectant and photographs the result. In a building shared by several families, the photos reassure everyone drawing on the tank. For a sump or a concrete tank on the property, our full water tank cleaning in Jafrabad covers it. This page is about Sintex and plastic tanks specifically.
The tanks near Jafrabad metro are small, but each one carries the load of many families on a single building. High shared draw keeps refilling the tank with hard, sometimes discoloured borewell and keeps stirring whatever has settled. Small size plus heavy use means the water is never really at rest, and the wear on it shows quickly.
Light still enters the translucent wall even on a cramped, shaded roof, so algae establish alongside the scale the hard water leaves. Dust from the tightly packed lanes drifts into loosely lidded tanks and adds to the base sediment. With so many households on one small tank and no one owning the clean, only a full drain and scrub genuinely refreshes it.
No travel charge anywhere in Jafrabad. The final price is confirmed on the call before we come — it depends only on tank size and access.

Every locality in Delhi stores different water, and that decides how fast a tank fouls. This is Jafrabad’s profile from The Delhi Water Index, built from our field observations across 250+ localities.

“Our loft tank is small but many families use it, how often should it be cleaned?” With heavy shared draw on a small tank, every three months is sensible. High use keeps stirring sediment, so the busier the building, the shorter the gap should be.
“Can your crew reach tanks on the very narrow Jafrabad lanes?” Yes, we carry the hose and equipment in on foot where no vehicle fits. The tight lanes near the metro are routine for us and do not change the price.
“The water is sometimes discoloured, will cleaning the tank help?” Cleaning removes the scale, silt and film inside the tank that add to the tint. If the borewell itself is discoloured, we will say so and suggest a filter.
“Who books when several families share one tank?” Any resident can call 95603 66362, and we photograph the work so everyone on the tank can see it was done properly.
“What does a small loft plastic tank cost to clean?” From ₹699 for up to 500 litres, with a per-tank bulk rate if the building has more than one.
