Sintex & Plastic Tank Cleaning in Sukhdev Vihar

Sintex & plastic tanks in Sukhdev Vihar

Sukhdev Vihar is a settled pocket of cooperative society flats near Okhla, Jasola and Apollo hospital. Water is stored in society shared overhead tanks and underground sumps serving whole blocks. On the rooftops those shared tanks are usually plastic or Sintex, each feeding several flats at once. Because a society tank belongs to everyone and no one in particular, its cleaning is easily put off, and a shared plastic tank left standing in the sun is precisely where algae quietly establish themselves.

The colony runs on DJB with borewell backup, and that backup water leaves scale on plastic between cleans. If your block also needs its underground sump done or you want the whole society handled together, our full water tank cleaning in Sukhdev Vihar page covers it. This page is specifically about Sintex and plastic tanks — the shared rooftop overhead tanks that go green and slimy first.

Why shared Sintex tanks in Sukhdev Vihar grow algae

The plastic society tanks on Sukhdev Vihar rooftops sit in open sun above the cooperative blocks, and light through their walls is exactly what green algae feed on. Feeding several flats, the water stays lukewarm from steady use and the rooftop heat, extending the growing hours. A concrete tank would stay dark and cool inside and slow a bloom, but Sintex and plastic light up and warm through, so a green film spreads across the walls well before residents expect it after a clean.

Deferred cleaning is the second problem. Because the shared tank belongs to the whole block, months can pass between cleans, and in that time the borewell backup leaves a scale on the plastic floor while a soft sludge of settled sediment gathers. Dust drifts in through lids that no longer seal on older society tanks. Refilled several times a day for many flats, the silt never settles out for removal, so the scale and biofilm build into a slippery, gritty layer.

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 Sukhdev Vihar customers

“Do you clean Sintex tanks for the Sukhdev Vihar society blocks near Apollo?” Yes. We cover all of Sukhdev Vihar, including the cooperative society pockets and the blocks near Okhla Phase 1, Jasola and Apollo Hospital. Whether it is a single flat’s plastic tank or a shared society tank on the roof, we can schedule them together and clean the whole block in one visit.

“What does it cost to clean a 500 to 1000 litre Sintex tank here?” A plastic tank up to 500 litres starts at ₹699, and a standard 1000 litre Sintex tank is ₹899. The price covers draining, sediment and slime removal, a plastic-safe jet wash, hand-scrubbing and a food-grade disinfectant, with photos afterwards. A society with several shared tanks gets a bulk discount on four or more done together in one visit.

“Can you clean my plastic tank the same day I call?” Usually yes. Sukhdev Vihar sits on our regular Okhla and Jasola routes, so same-day or next-day slots are normally available. One standard Sintex tank takes about ninety minutes; for a block with several shared tanks we plan a slot that keeps the flats supplied, and confirm timing when you call.

“Why does my shared Sintex tank in Sukhdev Vihar keep going green?” Sukhdev Vihar’s shared tanks are plastic and sit in open sun, so light passes through the walls to feed algae while steady use keeps the water warm. Because a society tank is cleaned only occasionally, any bloom has time to spread. Rinsing does not remove it, so the green, slimy layer returns unless the walls are scrubbed and disinfected.

“Is pressure washing safe for a plastic tank, and how do you remove algae without scratching it?” It is safe when the pressure is set for plastic, which is exactly what we do, so the Sintex walls are never gouged or cracked. Algae is removed with soft pads instead of wire brushes, because wire leaves scratches that let biofilm grip and regrow faster. A food-grade sanitiser then clears the last spores before the tank refills.
