Sintex & Plastic Tank Cleaning in Pragati Vihar

Sintex & plastic tanks in Pragati Vihar

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. Housing here relies on society sumps feeding rooftop overhead tanks, a mix of RCC and plastic, and because the plastic tanks let light through, they grow a slimy biofilm faster than the concrete ones beside them.

Shared banks of tanks and older plumbing make periodic desludging and disinfection important, especially for the translucent plastic units that green up unseen. A plastic-safe clean keeps them clear, and it works with our full water tank cleaning in Pragati Vihar so the society sump and the rooftop tanks are all covered.

Why plastic tanks in Pragati Vihar grow biofilm faster than the RCC ones

In these societies the RCC and plastic tanks often sit side by side on the same roof, but the plastic ones go slimy first because light passes straight through their walls and feeds algae. The concrete tanks stay dark inside, so they scale but green far more slowly. Even with steady DJB supply, a shared plastic tank that is rarely emptied keeps a film on its walls.

Our crew drains the tank, scoops out the settled sludge, then soft jet-washes at plastic-safe pressure so the plastic walls are cleaned without gouging or cracking. We hand-scrub the biofilm off with soft pads, disinfect with a food-grade solution, and reseat the lid and check the overflow so light and dust cannot feed new growth. Photos and a certificate follow for the society record.

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 Pragati Vihar customers

“Do you clean shared society tanks in the Pragati Vihar DDA blocks?” Yes, shared tank banks in the DDA flat blocks and government quarters are a regular job for us. We clean the whole bank in one visit and give the society a combined photo record and certificate. That makes it easy for the RWA to keep maintenance on file.

“Our plastic tank is slimy but the concrete one next to it is not — why?” The plastic tank is translucent, so light passes through and feeds algae, while the concrete tank stays dark and greens far more slowly. It is exactly why the plastic units in Pragati Vihar need cleaning more often. We scrub the film off with soft pads, disinfect and reseat the lid to shut out the light.

“Will your wash damage the plastic tank or the older RCC one?” No. We use a soft jet at plastic-safe pressure and soft pads on both, so neither the plastic nor the older RCC tank is gouged or cracked. We adjust our method to the tank material. Everything is cleaned thoroughly and left intact.

“What does it cost to clean a 1000L plastic tank here?” It starts from ₹699 for a standard plastic or Sintex tank, and a 1000L unit falls in that range. For societies with a bank of tanks we quote a per-tank rate that gets cheaper in bulk. The price is confirmed before we begin.

“Can you clean the society sump and rooftop tanks in one visit near Lodhi Road?” Yes. On the Lodhi Road and Nizamuddin side we routinely desludge the society sump and clean the rooftop plastic and RCC tanks in a single visit. We disinfect all of them and hand over one combined certificate. Just share the sump and tank sizes when you book.
