Sintex & Plastic Tank Cleaning in Khirki Village

Sintex & plastic tanks in Khirki Village

Khirki Village crowds around the 14th-century Khirki Masjid off Press Enclave Road, a dense grid of student PGs, rental floors and old houses beside Malviya Nagar and Saket. Supply is DJB mains supplemented by borewells, and paying-guest demand keeps the rooftop tanks turning over hard. Where those tanks are translucent Sintex or plastic, the daylight through the walls plus borewell nutrients let a green biofilm build up quickly on the busy rooftops.

Our crew covers the masjid lanes, Khirki Extension, the Malviya Nagar and Saket sides and the Press Enclave Road edge, cleaning plastic tanks and sumps alike. For sump or concrete storage, see our full water tank cleaning in Khirki Village service. Book a slot and we usually reach you within a day or two.

Why Khirki Village PG tanks bloom green

A Sintex tank’s see-through walls let daylight in, and on the sun-caught roofs around the masjid that light drives a green film. In a PG the tank is topped up from a borewell many times a day, so it always holds fresh nutrient-carrying water for the algae to feed on, and it returns faster than in a lightly used home. Warm summer roofs speed it up further.

Because a PG runs its water hard, the biofilm sheds flakes that cloud the tenants’ supply, and wire-brushing it off would only scratch the plastic and give the next bloom a grip. We drain the tank, scrub the walls with soft pads, disinfect, and reseat the lid so daylight and dust are shut out. On a busy PG roof this is worth repeating every few months.

How we do it — our 8-step process

• 1. Inspect & drain We check the tank and lid, then drain it down, saving what clean water we can.
• 2. Sediment removal Settled grit and the slimy layer at the bottom are scooped and wet-vacuumed out.
• 3. Soft jet wash Walls, floor and ceiling are jet-washed at a pressure safe for plastic — no gouging or cracking.
• 4. Manual scrub The algae film and inlet/outlet mouths are hand-scrubbed with soft pads, not wire brushes.
• 5. Anti-bacterial treatment A food-grade disinfectant wash kills remaining bacteria and algae spores.
• 6. Vacuum & rinse Loosened dirt is vacuumed out and the tank rinsed clean and ready to refill.
• 7. Lid & overflow check We reseat the lid and check the overflow so light and dust can’t feed new algae.
• 8. Photos & certificate Before/after photos and a dated service record sent to you on WhatsApp.

Common questions from Khirki Village customers

“Do you clean PG tanks in the lanes by Khirki Masjid?” Yes, the PG-packed lanes around the masjid are part of our regular round. We carry our own pump, ladder and disinfectant, so the narrow access and old rooftops are no problem. A single overhead Sintex tank is usually done in under two hours. Share your lane and floor when booking.

“Our PG water goes green within weeks — is it safe for the students?” The green layer is algae and biofilm, and once it forms the water is not safe to drink or cook with. It grows fast in these PG tanks because the plastic lets light in and the borewell water carries nutrients. We drain the tank, hand-scrub with soft pads and disinfect so the green is fully removed, then reseat the lid to keep sunlight from feeding a new bloom.

“Will your jet wash crack my old plastic tank?” No. We use a soft jet at plastic-safe pressure and never gouge the walls, then finish the algae by hand with soft pads rather than wire brushes. That protects the older Sintex tanks common on these heritage rooftops, keeping walls and joints intact. Smooth walls also give algae less to grip afterwards.

“What is the price for one tank, and can you do all the PG floors together?” A single 1000L Sintex or plastic overhead tank starts from ₹699, covering drain, scoop, soft jet wash, hand-scrub, disinfection, photos and a certificate. If your PG has a tank per floor, we do them all in one visit at a lower per-tank rate and give one certificate. We confirm the total on a quick call.

“Why are there black flakes in the water?” The black flakes are decayed algae breaking off the tank walls and floor, mixed with borewell sediment. A full drain, scoop and disinfection clears them out, and reseating the lid keeps new dust and light from restarting the bloom. Same-day visits are often possible in Khirki Village if you call early.
