# Esenler Drain Unclogging

Source: https://cantleyvidanjoraltyapi.com/en/esenler-drain-unclogging/

The need for drain unclogging in Esenler is usually noticed when water in the sink just sits there. Water standing at the drain opening, or a smell rising from the kitchen sink, points to a blockage that has built up somewhere in the pipe. In Esenler this can easily be confused with a problem on the shared line, so the first job is to work out which line is blocked.

At Cantley, we come to the address first, look at the problem on site and explain the cause to you. If needed, we look inside the pipe with a thin-cable camera to locate the blockage, then clear the line with a motorised drain snake or high-pressure water jetting. We work without damaging the pipe, and at the end we run water through all the drains and check the flow together with you. We show you each step and get your approval before moving on, so the process is clear from the start.

## Drain problems in Esenler's closely packed buildings

On many streets in Esenler, buildings of five or six storeys stand side by side with no gap between them. When there are shops on the ground floor and flats or small workshops in the basement, waste from the upper floors drops to the lowest point of the shared stack. A basement drain that overflows on rainy days can come from these old, hastily built lines being unable to carry today's crowded demand.

In a building like this, the way to pinpoint the problem is to run water through the drains one by one and see which one overflows. In Esenler, slow flow from a café sink is often caused by grease built up in the elbow that feeds that drain. When a building caretaker reports that the basement drain overflows after rain, the shared stack needs to be checked first.

## Frequently asked questions

### Why is my sink draining slowly in Esenler?

The most common cause of a slowly draining sink is a layer of hair and soap built up in the trap. You can clean the part of the trap that is reachable from the outside, but if the blockage is further inside, running lukewarm tap water a few times will not be enough. We do not recommend using a chemical drain opener, because it can give off heat in the pipe and damage a plastic pipe.

### What should we do if water backs up in several flats in the building?

If water backs up in several flats at the same time, the problem is most likely in the shared stack or the connecting line. Before blaming a single flat, the building's shared line and the basement entrance need to be inspected together. Building management or the caretaker can note which drains are affected and when the problem started, and pass that on to us.

### What should I do if the blockage comes back after the drain has been cleared?

If a cleared drain starts filling up again soon after, only part of the blockage may have been removed. The layer left on the pipe wall keeps catching new waste, and the blockage returns quickly. In that case it is enough to describe it to us with a photo on WhatsApp, and we can talk through which line to check again before we come.
