Bakırköy Manhole Unclogging

When muddy water starts seeping from the edge of the manhole cover at the entrance of a building in Bakırköy, the answer you need is usually Bakırköy manhole unclogging. With water rising under the cover, or a ground-floor sink backing up, it is hard to tell from the outside whether the problem is in the manhole or in the outlet line.

Before opening the cover, we secure the area and try to read from the water level which line is blocked. If needed, we clear the outlet pipe with a motorised drain snake, then clean the base of the chamber with high-pressure water jetting. As Cantley, our last step is to follow the line by camera all the way to the street connection, because a root or a break may be sitting further down.

Manhole unclogging in Bakırköy's different building types

In the planned housing blocks of Ataköy, the cast iron shared stacks can be narrowed inside by rust and sediment. In the houses with gardens in Yeşilköy and Florya, the drain line runs from one end of the garden to the other, and a root that has entered old pipes can spread inside. That is why a camera with a long cable is needed.

Around the Bakırköy market and the square, restaurants, cafes and shops carry the heaviest drain load in the district. A family living in an old building may notice the sink in their flat slowing down when the kitchen drain of the ground-floor cafe blocks, because the line is the same. In low streets close to the coast, the sewer can fill in heavy rain and back up into basements.

Frequently asked questions

What should I do first if water is overflowing from the manhole cover?

First make the area safe and do not lean over the open manhole. If you see seepage when it is not raining, the problem is most likely in the wastewater line, so call us.

Why does a manhole keep blocking in Bakırköy?

The real cause of repeated blockages is often the pipe leaving the manhole. Root entry, a crack or ground settlement can close the line, so cleaning the manhole alone is not enough and a camera check is needed.

Do you also unclog manholes at shops and restaurants?

Yes, as well as homes and building managements, we also attend workplaces such as shops, restaurants and offices. Grease and crumb build-up is common in restaurants, so we check the outlet line too.
