Bahçelievler Sewer Line Unclogging
If water comes back up through the ground-floor bathroom drain, the problem that calls for sewer line unclogging in Bahçelievler is most often in the building's main line. Whether you are a tenant or an owner, checking which floors are affected narrows down the location of the problem from the start.
At Cantley, we first open the manholes at the address one by one and check the water levels, narrowing down the stretch between a full manhole and an empty one. Then we film the blockage with a camera and watch it together with your management representative. Once we have talked through the cause with you, we clear the drain.
Old cast iron lines and urban renewal buildings in Bahçelievler
Most of the district consists of apartment buildings put up between 1970 and 1990, and in Siyavuşpaşa, Soğanlı and Kocasinan many of them still use their original plumbing. In old cast iron and PVC drain pipes, deposits catch on the offsets at the joints and the line narrows over the years. In buildings renewed through urban renewal, the new line may not match the old street connection, which shows up on the camera as a reverse gradient.
Tenants who report water rising in a ground-floor flat in the morning, or elderly couples on the upper floors who notice water coming back into their own bathrooms, are a common sight here. In buildings with shops on the ground floor and flats above, a blockage in a shop can quickly become a problem for the whole building. Around Şirinevler square and Yenibosna, grease and paper towel build-up in restaurants, bakeries and business centres is a frequent reason for calls.
Frequently asked questions
What should I do if water comes back up through a ground-floor drain in Bahçelievler?
You need to tell your building manager straight away, because water coming back through a ground-floor drain often means the main line is blocked. Checking whether your neighbours also have slow drains helps confirm this. After that, you can call us.
I am a tenant. Who should I contact to have the building's main line cleared?
The main line runs through the building, so clearing it is the management's responsibility, and you should make the request through the management first. Once the management approves, we can open the manholes and inspect the line with a camera. If the problem is in the street network, it should be reported to İSKİ.
Will flats be unable to use water while the sewer line is being cleared?
The drains may be out of use for a while during the work, so the timing is discussed in advance with the management and the neighbours. In buildings with shops on the ground floor and flats above, it is especially important to plan the job so that it affects both the shop and the flats as little as possible.
