# Bayrampaşa Pipe Unclogging

When it comes to pipe unclogging in Bayrampaşa, the first thing to look at is less what the blockage is than how the building is put together. Narrow shared stacks in blocks built wall to wall, and shops added later on the ground floor, may have increased the load the line carries.

Cantley works across all 39 districts of Istanbul, and in Bayrampaşa we go to homes, apartment buildings, shops and workplaces with the same method. First we find the blockage with a camera, then we clear the line with a motorised drain snake, a robotic machine or high-pressure water jetting. Before we unclog the drain, we talk through the cause with you.

## Where blockages start in Bayrampaşa's attached buildings

Bayrampaşa, once known as Sağmalcılar, grew quickly, and most of its housing is made up of apartment blocks built wall to wall, leaning against one another. In these buildings the pipe slopes are often inadequate, and the blockage tends to show up on the lowest floor, in the basement.

On the main streets, the ground floors hold restaurants, bakeries, barbers and workshops, so grease, dough, hair and fabric dust build up in the drains. If the sink in an older couple's ground-floor flat drains more and more slowly, it can be the first sign of narrowing in the floors above. In a detached house with a garden, a corrugated pipe may have been crushed, and soil that stays wet when there has been no rain points to this.

## Frequently asked questions

### If a sink drains slowly in Bayrampaşa, is it a blockage or an ageing pipe?

Most of the time it is the first sign of a blockage, but rust building up in old metal pipes can cause the same slowdown. If the slowdown is getting worse, viewing the pipe with a camera is the clearest way to see which one applies.

### Does pouring chemical drain opener into the drain help in an old building?

No. In cast iron and galvanised lines, chemical opener does not dissolve the rust crust, and it can eat into thinned metal and speed up perforation. If you have used a chemical before, tell us, because we choose the machine and the head accordingly.

### What should I do if the blockage comes back after the pipe is cleared?

A blockage that keeps returning often means there is damage at another point on the line. After clearing it, we watch the inside of the pipe again with the camera. If we see a collapse, a break or a crushed section, we tell you plainly and recommend renewing only the damaged part.
