When the Bayrampaşa car park vacuum truck crew arrives at the address, the first thing they do is look at the ramp entrance, and that is where they decide where to park the vehicle. We do not start work until we have seen how high the water has risen and where the sludge has settled, on the floor or in the drainage pit. We explain the cause to you first, then we move on to pumping out the water.

The water left on a ramp after rain and the sludge in a basement are often part of the same problem. A submersible pump reduces the water to some extent, but it does not clear the sludge at the bottom. At Cantley, we pull the water out with a combination vacuum truck, break up the greasy layer in the grates and channel drains with high-pressure water jetting, and collect the waste in a closed tank. The waste is never discharged into a street grate or the sea. It is taken to the authorised discharge point and to licensed facilities.

## Basement and car park water in Bayrampaşa's older apartment buildings

In Bayrampaşa, formerly known as Sağmalcılar, the shared stacks in terraced buildings are narrow and the horizontal connections are long. Added floors and ground floors converted into shops increase the load on the line, so blockages usually show up on the lowest floor and in the basement. Grease from restaurants and bakeries, hair from barbers and fabric dust from workshops all end up in the same channels.

When the building caretaker opens the basement door in the morning, they may find a greasy layer on top of the channel and rising water. A family living in an older building may notice that sludge drying in the corner of the storage room is producing dust and a smell. In older buildings the blockage is most often at the building outlet or at the connection under the pavement, so we check the line all the way out to the street.

## Frequently asked questions

### What should I do first if my basement floods in Bayrampaşa?

Do not touch any electrical appliance or socket. Call the building manager or the car park attendant first. If you describe the water level and the condition of the entrance on the phone, the crew can work out more quickly which vehicle is suitable.

### Why do I need a vacuum truck if I already have a submersible pump?

A pump reduces the water to some extent, but it cannot remove the sludge that builds up on the floor and in the drainage pit. As long as the sludge stays in the pit, the water rises again and the pump runs often and strains its motor.

### Can a large truck still come if the car park entrance is low?

Yes. If the entrance is low or the ramp is narrow, we work with a mini vacuum truck on a small chassis. We park it at the safest point closest to the ramp entrance and lay the hose away from the pedestrian walkway.
