Beykoz Balcony Drain Unclogging is most often needed in autumn, when leaves from the large garden trees fill the strainer and close off the drain opening. If water stands on your balcony after rain in Kavacık, Çubuklu or Paşabahçe, the blockage has usually reached the bend directly below the strainer.

Cantley starts on the balcony: we lift the strainer and examine the drain opening, then inspect the inside of the pipe with a CCTV drain camera to find where the blockage is and explain what caused it. Next we clear the bend and the horizontal section with a motorised drain snake. If the blockage extends into the downpipe, we flush the line from top to bottom with high-pressure water jetting. We try to reach the inside of the pipe through the drain opening, without breaking the floor or the wall.

## Balcony drains in Beykoz's tree-lined buildings

Picture a newly built multi-storey residential block in Beykoz. Each balcony drain connects to the same downpipe through a short horizontal section, so a blockage on one floor can cause water to pool on the balconies below as well. If the balconies have been glazed in or given new flooring, the drain may have been sealed over with mortar and silicone.

In an office block or business centre in Kavacık, the water and sand from washing down a balcony quickly reach the drain. In these buildings we start by tracing the pipe with the camera, and we do not intervene until it is clear which floor and which bend the blockage is in.

## Frequently asked questions

### Why do balcony drains in Beykoz block so often?

The main cause is leaves from the trees, wind-blown dust and soil washed out when plant pots are watered, all collecting in the strainer. This mixture gets heavier as it gets wet and hardens as it dries, forming a stubborn blockage in narrow bends. In houses with gardens, the surrounding trees add to the leaf load, so this build-up is seen more often.

### Is the floor broken when a balcony drain is unclogged?

No. The work is done through the drain opening, without breaking the balcony floor or the wall. If the drain has been sealed over or is buried under the flooring, we first check with the camera to see where the connection leads. That way the floor is not touched when it does not need to be.

### Is pouring chemical drain opener into a balcony drain enough?

Usually it is not enough, and it carries risks of its own. A chemical drain opener may not fully dissolve caked-on sludge, can damage the pipe material and can hide where the blockage really is. A safer first step is to empty the strainer by hand and rinse the grate with lukewarm water.
