# Esenyurt Manhole Unclogging

Most calls about manhole unclogging in Esenyurt start with one question about the water coming out around the edge of the cover: is this rainwater, or is the building's waste water sitting in the manhole? To tell the two apart, you first need to look at the water level inside the manhole and the condition of the lines connected to it. Without a camera inspection, it is impossible to say which pipe is blocking the manhole.

At Cantley we start on site: we set up the area around the manhole before opening the cover, then check the water level from above, along with which line the water should be coming in from and which line it should be leaving by. Once we have explained the cause to you, we clear the outlet line with a motorised drain snake and flush the chamber and the connected pipes with high-pressure water. When the job is done, we check the outlet pipe with a camera and confirm that the line is clear all the way to the street connection.

## Why manholes overflow first in dense blocks in Esenyurt

Esenyurt today is made up of multi-block housing complexes built where fields used to be, tall towers and apartment buildings along the main avenues. In many complexes hundreds of flats are connected to the same shared lines, so the manhole collects the waste water of every block at a single point, and even a small narrowing shows up quickly.

A new owner who has just moved into a flat may find the kitchen sink backing up while the furniture is still being put in place. In student flats and dormitories, kitchen grease and wet wipes build up quickly in the same outlet line, and the smell from the manhole spreads as far as the garden.

## Frequently asked questions

### My manhole in Esenyurt is overflowing. Is it rainwater or a blockage?

If the manhole overflows in dry weather, the problem is most likely a build-up in the waste water line. If it overflows after rain, one of the pipes connected to the manhole may have a narrowing. To tell for certain, the inside needs to be checked with a camera.

### Can the blockage come back after the manhole is cleared?

Yes. Even if the manhole is cleaned, the blockage can return if the real cause is in the outlet pipe. Roots growing into the pipe or a broken pipe will bring the same problem back. That is why the outlet line is checked with a camera at the end of the job, and whatever is found is shown to you on the footage.

### What should I do first if the manhole smells or water is coming out?

First keep the area clear of children and pets, and do not lean over the cover. Do not pour in a chemical drain opener, because its reaction with standing waste water can create a risk of fumes and splashing. Describing the situation by phone or on WhatsApp makes the preparation easier.
