Büyükçekmece Manhole Unclogging
Büyükçekmece Manhole Unclogging requests mostly begin in summer, when the shared line running through the garden fills up and the manhole overflows. In lines that carry little water over winter, the sediment hardens, and in the warm months, when flats use their drains at the same time, the manhole fills. So the first step is to work out on site which building feeds which line.
Once the cover is open, the Cantley team checks from above the water level, which pipe the water comes in through and which one it should leave by. Then a motorised drain snake breaks up the mass of wipes, grease and sludge blocking the outlet, and high-pressure water jetting cleans the chamber floor and the connected pipes. Finally, the camera shows whether the line leaving the manhole is clear all the way to the street connection. If the manhole overflows again, we explain the cause to you with the footage.
Old summer houses and new blocks share the same line in Büyükçekmece
Along Mimarsinan, Kumburgaz and Güzelce, low-rise blocks and houses with gardens stand side by side. Most of these homes are now lived in all year round, but the lines beneath them were still laid for summer use.
In a small workshop, the problem often starts when an old, narrow pipe cannot carry the load. In a house with a garden, the manhole is the first stop where a long shared line collects sediment. In low-lying ground-floor homes, when the street line fills during a downpour, dirty water can rise up through the drains. In that case a measure that blocks backflow at the outlet is also needed.
Frequently asked questions
What should I do if a manhole overflows in Büyükçekmece?
If there is water, mud or a strong smell around the cover, do not lean over the manhole. Keep children and pets away, and do not pour in chemical drain opener or boiling water. Then call 0212 923 66 85.
Why does a manhole keep blocking again and again?
The source of a repeat blockage is often the pipe leaving the manhole, and root intrusion, breaks and collapses are the main causes. Cleaning alone does not fix these defects for good, so they are dealt with after being seen on camera.
Can the shared line in a Büyükçekmece housing complex be scanned by camera?
Yes, for site management we can scan the shared line running through the garden from start to finish with the camera. The problem points are shown in order, so you decide together which section needs to be cleared.
