Çekmeköy Kitchen Sink Unclogging
Requests for kitchen sink unclogging in Çekmeköy come from homes as varied as the district's building stock. Around Taşdelen and Alemdağ, older low-rise houses stand next to new housing complexes, while on the Ömerli side detached houses with gardens are becoming more common. Working on the sink of a new residence and on the line of a neglected garden house in the same day is therefore normal.
The main load in a kitchen drain comes from grease carried by washing-up water, which sticks to the pipe wall layer by layer. First we talk through the cause with you at the address, then we open the sink trap and empty out the greasy sludge. We locate the blockage with a camera, open the way with a snake if needed, scrape the grease off with robotic heads and clean the line with high-pressure water jetting. At Cantley we carry out the work without breaking into the line, and we check the end result by filming the pipe again with the camera.
Kitchen drains in Çekmeköy, from new housing complexes to houses with gardens
In new housing complexes, kitchen drains slow down in the first period after handover, because pieces of mortar and plaster that got into the pipes during construction combine with grease and narrow the flow. When the shared stack is blocked, greasy water can come up through the sink of the neighbour downstairs, so the problem lies in the common line, not in a single flat.
In detached houses with gardens, the situation depends on the structure of the line: in old cast iron pipes, rust and grease narrow the line, while in gardens close to the forest, leaves and pine needles block the rainwater pipes, and a plastic pipe laid at the wrong slope holds the water back and lets sediment build up. That is why, at the first inspection, we establish which line the problem is in.
Frequently asked questions
My sink drains slowly in Çekmeköy, is this a blockage?
Yes, if water stands in the sink, a layer of grease may have narrowed the pipe. If running warm water into the sink helps for a short while and then it slows down again, the grease has not melted, it has only moved further along. Chemical drain openers can damage the trap and the thin parts of the pipe, so call us first.
Why does water rise in the sink when the dishwasher drains?
Most of the time the problem is in the shared drain line outside the machine, because the dishwasher and the sink empty into the same blocked line. This line needs to be cleared before you look for a fault in the machine. We remove the sink trap, empty out the greasy sludge inside it and check the drain connection as well.
Water rises in my neighbour's kitchen when I use my sink, is the problem on my side?
No, this usually shows that the shared kitchen stack is blocked, and opening the trap of a single flat does not solve it. Act together with the building management and contact us to have the stack cleared.
