In the resettlement blocks at the Mayur Vihar Phase 3 end, hard borewell and tanker water silt up the small rooftop plastic tanks fast, and shared use keeps them low-turnover. KaamGenie strips out the sediment and biofilm, disinfects and photographs, from ₹699.
Kondli is a dense DDA resettlement and EWS colony at the Mayur Vihar Phase 3 end, with tightly packed LIG flats and self-built floors. Supply leans heavily on borewell and tanker with only limited DJB, so the water arrives hard and the rooftop plastic tanks scale and silt up fast. The small tanks common here often feed several families, giving them low turnover and long gaps between cleans. With hard water and shared use combined, sediment and biofilm are a persistent problem rather than an occasional one.
A clean here starts with draining the tank and wet-vacuuming the harder silt that borewell and tanker water leave, then soft-pad scrubbing the scale and biofilm off the plastic before a anti-bacterial disinfectant finish and photographs. Homes with a ground store as well add it under our full water tank cleaning in Kondli. This page keeps to the small rooftop Sintex and plastic tanks that most blocks here rely on.
Hard borewell and tanker water settle a chalky scale on a plastic tank quickly, and tanker loads in particular can bring their own fine grit that drops straight to the floor. That scaled, gritty surface holds minerals and anchors algae, and the translucent Sintex wall lets in the daylight that feeds the film. A small tank on an exposed resettlement roof therefore reaches a poor state faster than a shaded concrete one.
Shared among several families, the tank is drawn down and refilled hard, stirring the settled layer back into the draw instead of letting it clear. Residents get a gritty first pour and a faint smell after a hot day, and RO filters clog sooner than they should. With low turnover and no single owner for the schedule, the layer keeps thickening, which is why a physical drain-and-scrub is what resolves it.
No travel charge anywhere in Kondli. The final price is confirmed on the call before we come — it depends only on tank size and access.

“We get tanker water, does that bring extra dirt into the tank?” It can. A tanker load may carry its own fine grit that drops to the tank floor, on top of the scale the hard water leaves. We drain and wet-vacuum that settled grit out and scrub the walls, so the tank starts clean whatever the last delivery brought.
“Our tank is shared by several families, how does that affect cleaning?” Shared tanks are drawn down and refilled hard, which keeps sediment stirred and lets it build without anyone spotting it. One clean covers the whole tank whoever uses it, and we photograph the result so the families can agree when the next is due.
“What does a small rooftop plastic tank cost to clean here?” For the small tanks common in these blocks, up to 500 litres, the price starts at ₹699. Where a building has several tanks we quote a per-tank rate for doing them together.
“How often should a hard-water resettlement tank be cleaned?” With borewell and tanker water silting the tank quickly, quarterly is safer and twice a year the minimum. The faster the tank scales and silts, the more a fixed schedule pays off over waiting for the water to turn.
“Do you cover the LIG flats and self-built floors alike?” Yes, we clean the DDA LIG blocks, the EWS pockets and the self-built floors here on the same soft-pad plastic-safe method. Only the tank size and number change, which we quote for when you call.
