Beşiktaş Kitchen Sink Unclogging
Beşiktaş Kitchen Sink Unclogging requests usually begin with grease that arrives with washing-up water, cools inside the pipe and sticks to the pipe wall. In the older buildings of Ortaköy and Bebek, narrowed lines speed up this build-up, so the blockage forms gradually.
First, at the spot where the problem is, we inspect the trap, the dishwasher drain connection and the point where the line is blocked, and we explain the cause to you. If the grease has formed a thick layer, a path is opened through the blockage with a motorised drain snake, robotic heads scrape the pipe wall and the line is flushed with high-pressure water. At the end of the job we look inside the pipe with a camera and show you whether any grease is left.
Building stock and kitchen drains in Beşiktaş
In the older buildings on the steep streets running down to the shore in Ortaköy and Bebek, PVC drain pipe sections added later to cast iron pipes create changes in diameter and sharp bends. In buildings on a slope, the load from the flats above builds up at the lower connections. The cafés, taverns and restaurants in Beşiktaş çarşı, meanwhile, send a heavy flow of grease and food waste into the lines under the narrow streets.
Etiler and Levent are mostly residences and office towers. In a tall new residence, the shared stack carries the kitchen drains of many flats, so grease builds up layer by layer, while in a ground-floor flat the greasy water is the first to rise in the sink. When large vehicles cannot get into narrow streets, we carry out the work with portable machines.
Frequently asked questions
How do I know my kitchen drain in Beşiktaş needs unclogging?
If water drains slowly from the sink and improves briefly when you run hot water before slowing down again, a layer of grease has narrowed the pipe. If grey water rises in the sink while the dishwasher empties, the problem should be looked for in the shared line.
Is pouring a chemical drain opener into the sink enough when the kitchen drain is blocked?
No. Chemical openers do not fully dissolve a thick layer of grease, and they often only push the blockage further along and hide the problem. They can also splash if the product mixes with another liquid. To avoid making the problem worse, it is safer to first flush the drain several times with lukewarm tap water and check the trap.
If I see greasy water in my neighbour's sink, is the problem in my flat?
Usually not. If greasy water is rising in a lower-floor flat, the blockage is most often in the shared kitchen stack. In that case, clearing the trap of a single flat will not solve it, and you need to act together with the building management.
