Sintex & Plastic Tank Cleaning in RK Puram

Sintex & plastic tanks in RK Puram

RK Puram is a sprawl of government-quarter sectors, one through thirteen, of CPWD flats plus some private blocks. Supply is mostly DJB pipeline, and each quarter-block runs shared overhead tanks and underground sumps on ageing infrastructure that is cleaned irregularly. Many of the overhead stores are Sintex or plastic, and on the exposed rooftops of these old blocks the translucent walls let light and warmth into the water, so a green, slimy film builds up between the infrequent cleanings and reaches every quarter below unfiltered.

KaamGenie cleans the shared plastic overhead tanks across RK Puram’s sectors — draining, wet-vacuuming the slimy sediment, soft jet-washing at a plastic-safe pressure and hand-scrubbing the algae with soft pads rather than wire brushes, then a food-grade disinfectant wash. If the quarter-block’s underground sump needs doing too, see our full water tank cleaning in RK Puram. This page is specifically about Sintex and plastic tanks.

Why Sintex tanks in RK Puram grow algae faster

The shared plastic tanks on RK Puram’s CPWD blocks are cleaned irregularly, so the algae film gets long stretches to grow. Meanwhile light passes through the translucent Sintex wall on the exposed rooftop and warms the water, feeding that film the whole time. A concrete tank would at least keep the water dark, but on these old quarter-blocks the plastic tanks green up steadily because the light gets in and the cleaning schedule is thin.

The infrastructure here is ageing, so tank lids often fit loosely and let in dust and grime, and the plastic walls may already be weathered and rough — a surface algae grip easily. Shared quarter tanks serve several families with uneven use, so the water stands warm between draws. With no single household responsible, these tanks are usually cleaned only when the CPWD schedule allows, which lets the biofilm build up well before it is dealt with.

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 RK Puram customers

“Do you clean Sintex tanks in Sector 4 RK Puram?” Yes. Sector 4 and the other RK Puram sectors, one through thirteen, are on our regular rounds. We clean the shared plastic overhead tanks on the CPWD quarter-blocks and the private-block tanks alike, and we can do all the tanks on one block in a single visit so every quarter gets clean water together.

“How much to clean a 500-1000L Sintex tank in RK Puram?” A Sintex tank up to 500 litres starts at ₹699 and a standard 1000L is ₹899. Larger shared tanks cost more by capacity, and where a quarter-block has several plastic tanks we give a bulk rate on four or more, so the whole block is cleaner per tank in one coordinated visit.

“Can you come the same day to RK Puram?” Usually yes. RK Puram is central to our South Delhi routes, so a morning call to 95603 66362 often gets a crew to you the same day. For a shared quarter-block tank we plan the slot around the DJB supply time so every family’s water is back to normal quickly after cleaning.

“Why do the shared plastic tanks in RK Puram go green?” Because they are cleaned irregularly and sit in the sun. Light through the translucent Sintex wall warms the water and feeds algae during the long gaps between cleanings, the ageing lids let dust in, and shared use leaves the water standing warm. Weathered old plastic gives the film an easy grip, so it builds up steadily.

“Will your cleaning damage the old plastic tanks?” No. We set the jet pressure for plastic, so it clears the film and scale without cracking the wall, and we scrub with soft pads, never wire brushes. On weathered CPWD tanks especially, wire brushes would roughen the plastic further and speed algae regrowth, so we keep the surface as smooth as we can.
