# Bayrampaşa Blocked Drain Clearing

If the sink in your basement flat has slowed down, or water is coming back up from the drain of the small workshop downstairs, blocked drain clearing in Bayrampaşa is not something to put off. The same symptom can come from the trap, the connection pipe, the shared stack or the building outlet, so the blockage has to be located before it is cleared.

Cantley works 24/7 in all 39 districts of Istanbul. In Bayrampaşa we first inspect the line on site with a camera and explain the cause to you, then clear the drain. For solid blockages we use a motorised drain snake or a robotic machine, and for grease and sludge deposits we use high-pressure water jetting. Because we work without breaking tiles or walls, we get on without touching your floor or walls.

## Where blockages start in Bayrampaşa's adjoining buildings

In Bayrampaşa, also known as Sağmalcılar, apartment blocks stand side by side, and their shared stacks can be narrow, their horizontal pipes long and their gradients too shallow. Once extra floors are added and ground floors are converted into shops, the load increases, and blockages show up in the basement and on the lowest floor.

Grease, dough, hair and fabric dust from restaurants, bakeries, barbers and workshops on the main streets build up in the drains. In older buildings the blockage is often at the building outlet or at the connection under the pavement, so we inspect the line as far as the street and pass what we find, with the footage, on to you and the building management.

## Frequently asked questions

### If only one sink drains slowly in Bayrampaşa, is the problem in the shared stack?

Usually not. A single drain slowing down is most often caused by the trap or the first stretch of pipe right behind it. Even so, the line needs to be checked with a camera to know the cause for certain.

### What should I do if dirty water comes up in the shower downstairs when the flat above uses water?

First cut back on your water use and speak to the building management, because the blockage is most likely in the shared stack. Clearing the drain of a single flat will not solve the problem in this case.

### What should I do if water overflows from the manhole and the basement drains are rising at the same time?

Call straight away and do not go down into the manhole under any circumstances, as there may be toxic gas inside. If the basement and ground floor drains overflow at the same time, the blockage is most likely at the building outlet, and waiting only makes the flooding worse.
