# Bakırköy Sewer Cleaning

How do you know you need sewer cleaning in Bakırköy? Often the first sign is a ground-floor sink or shower that starts to drain slowly. A heavy smell in the basement or stairwell, and water standing under the manhole cover, also show that the line has narrowed.

Cantley does this work before the line blocks completely. First the manhole and inspection chamber covers are opened and the water level and flow direction are checked. If needed, the inside of the line is inspected with a camera, then sludge, grease and roots that have entered through the joints are cleared with high-pressure water jetting. We talk through what we found and what needs to be done with you first, then we start the cleaning.

## Why does the drain line narrow in Bakırköy's building stock?

In blocks built in phases in Ataköy, the inner surface of cast iron shared stacks may have shrunk because of rust and deposits. In garden houses in Yeşilköy and Florya, the line runs from one end of the garden to the other, and once roots enter at a joint they weave a wide network inside. In these homes the camera is often sent along the full length of the line on a long cable.

If the sink in an elderly couple's flat in Ataköy drains slowly and there is a smell from the basement floor drain in the morning, the problem is often sediment built up in the shared stack. For a couple living in a detached house with a garden, the first sign is usually a full manhole in the garden or a blockage that keeps coming back under a tree. In the older buildings of the Bakırköy town centre, if the kitchen drain of a ground-floor restaurant is connected to the same line as the flats above, an inadequate grease trap also affects the drains of the homes.

## Frequently asked questions

### When should sewer cleaning be done in Bakırköy?

If one ground-floor drain runs slower than the others, or there is standing water when you open the manhole cover, it is time for cleaning. In buildings with a shared line, it is also wiser to have the condition of the line checked at regular intervals, even before these signs appear.

### I had a blockage cleared, so why does it happen again in the same place?

If a cleared blockage comes back at the same point several times, the problem is often a narrowing in the inner diameter of the line. To see whether there are roots or settled sludge, it needs to be checked with a camera. Washing the whole line reduces the risk of the same point blocking again.

### What can be done to stop my basement flooding back during rain?

Cleaning alone does not protect the basement from rainwater, but a line free of grease and sludge carries water more easily in the rain. On the streets near the sea in Florya and Yeşilköy, rain grates clogged with leaves and sand speed up backflow, so the grate at the building exit should be checked at the same time.
