# Bayrampaşa Kitchen Sink Unclogging

Most requests for kitchen sink unclogging in Bayrampaşa start with the same question: why is the water draining so slowly? Water standing at the bottom of the sink, a whitish layer in the trap or a sour food smell all show that grease has started to build up in the kitchen line. When you first notice these signs, finding the cause is the step to take before forcing the line.

The Cantley team starts at your address. We run a camera through the kitchen line to find where the grease or solid waste has collected, and we explain the cause to you. Only after that finding do we move on to clearing the drain: a motorised drain snake opens a path through the blockage, robotic attachments scrape the grease off the pipe wall, and high-pressure water jetting washes the line through.

## Why does the kitchen line narrow in older apartment buildings in Bayrampaşa?

In the district formerly known as Sağmalcılar, most homes are adjoining apartment buildings that went up side by side while the city was growing fast. In these buildings the kitchen stack is narrow, the horizontal connections are long and the slope is often inadequate. Because added floors and ground floors converted into shops put more load on the line than it was meant to carry, blockages tend to show up on the lowest floor and in the basement.

For a family living in an older apartment building, the first sign is usually slow draining water at the bottom of the sink, and soon after, the neighbour downstairs reports greasy water coming up. At this point, opening the trap in a single flat is not enough, because the blockage is often at the building outlet or at the connection under the pavement. A bakery or restaurant run on the ground floor of a building on the main streets speeds up the buildup of grease and dough, so instead of waiting for a blockage, a regular cleaning plan is needed. We check the line all the way out to the street and explain the findings, backed by a record, to both you and the building management.

## Frequently asked questions

### My sink is draining slowly in Bayrampaşa. Can I try to clear it myself first?

Yes, removing the sink trap and emptying the greasy sludge inside is a safe first step. Use warm tap water for this and do not pour in a chemical drain opener, because the substance in it can react with grease and create a risk of splashing. If the water still drains slowly after the trap is cleaned, the problem is deeper in the line and it needs to be inspected on site.

### If I see greasy water in my neighbour's sink, is the problem coming from my flat?

Most of the time, no. The problem is in the shared kitchen stack. If water rises in your neighbour's sink when you use yours, tell the building management in writing which flats the water rises in.

### How often should the kitchen drain be cleaned if I run a restaurant on the ground floor?

The cleaning frequency should be planned according to daily volume and the length of the line. Grease trap maintenance should also be added to this schedule.
