Ataşehir Pipe Unclogging
When a request for pipe unclogging in Ataşehir comes in, our team does not push a machine into the drain as soon as it reaches the address. It looks inside the pipe with a camera first. Based on the footage, we share with you where the blockage is, what caused it and what material the line is made of, and only then do we start clearing it.
In offices and business centres, the problem usually starts in shared sinks and floor drains. In a shop on a main street, a single drain can suddenly stop during the evening rush. In places like these, the camera footage shows why the line blocked and what needs to change so it does not happen again. At Cantley, before we start work we tell the management who uses the line and which taps will be out of use during the job.
Blockages in Ataşehir's older blocks and residences
In the shared stacks of Ataşehir's older blocks, long use has narrowed the inner diameter, and sediment has built up in the horizontal runs. Water from the upper floors coming back up through the sinks and showers on the lower floors is the most familiar sign of this narrowing. In the Kayışdağı and İçerenköy areas, older apartment buildings stand next to renovated ones, so the points where an old line meets new PVC drain pipe often cause trouble.
In tall residences, long vertical lines and a pumped collection system in the basement make the job harder. In these buildings, before we put the camera in at the right point, we check the line plan with the technical management office, and we tell the management in advance which flats should not use water during the work. This preparation is necessary because a blockage in one flat can show up as an overflow in another flat several floors below.
Frequently asked questions
How can you tell there is a shared stack blockage in an older apartment building in Ataşehir?
Water coming back up through a sink or shower on the lower floors, or an overflow in another flat when a drain is used on an upper floor, are typical signs of a stack problem. The camera footage shows the exact location.
Does pouring a chemical drain opener into a blocked drain work?
In most cases it does not. In old cast iron and galvanised pipes, the chemical does not dissolve the rust crust, and it can eat into the thinned metal and speed up perforation.
What could be the cause if a cleared pipe blocks again?
Most often there is damage inside the pipe, such as a crack, a crushed section or a slipped joint, and the unclogging has only removed the blockage. If this damage shows up in the final camera check, we tell you plainly that the unclogging will be temporary and recommend replacing only the damaged section.
