# Arnavutköy Pipe Unclogging

The need for pipe unclogging in Arnavutköy often grows unnoticed. By the time you first see water draining slowly, the line may already have narrowed a lot. A sink may be emptying sluggishly, or water may be pooling around a manhole cover in the garden. These signs can point to different lines and materials, so the first job is to understand what we are dealing with.

At Cantley, we start in Arnavutköy by identifying the type and diameter of the pipe. Building debris in new housing complexes, extra lines added later in village houses and greasy water in factories each cause a different kind of blockage here. That is why we first look inside with a camera and, together with you, see whether the blockage is mortar, roots or a collapsed pipe.

## Building stock and drains in Arnavutköy

In Arnavutköy, new housing complex blocks, villas and detached houses are going up next to older village settlements. In new complexes, building debris can settle in the line, while in village houses the kitchen and bathroom drains added later may be connected to the manhole through lines with too little slope.

In the warehouses and workshops around Hadımköy, canteen grease and rainwater meet in the same line. In Taşoluk and Bolluca, soil and roots can get into the outdoor drains of houses with gardens. A family living in an old apartment building found out with the camera that the slowdown at their bathroom came from a rusted pipe in the shared stack. In an elderly couple's flat, the manhole cover was buried under soil, so we first had to find it.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I try to unclog a blocked pipe myself in Arnavutköy?

On thin plastic drains such as sinks and bathrooms, you can try cleaning the trap and the elbows by hand. On an old cast iron or galvanised line, working on it yourself can pack the rust crust in even tighter, and pouring boiling water strains the plastic joints.

### Why should you not use a chemical drain opener on an old cast iron pipe?

A chemical drain opener does not dissolve the rust crust in a cast iron pipe. It also eats into metal that has already thinned, which raises the risk of cracks and holes. That is why, on the old cast iron stacks in Arnavutköy, we need to look with a camera first.

### How do you find where the blockage is?

On most jobs, we first look inside the pipe with a camera and tell whether the blockage is mortar, roots or a collapsed pipe. We watch the footage with you on the screen and point out where the blockage is.
