# Esenyurt Washbasin Unclogging

For washbasin unclogging in Esenyurt, the first thing we do on arrival is inspect the space under the basin and the plug mechanism. We do not work on the drain until we understand why the water is standing: is the plug stuck, or is the blockage further along in the wall line?

In a bathroom washbasin the water slows down first, then a pool of still water collects at the bottom, and the real cause is often the hair and soap scum in the first few centimetres of the drain. If that scum has stayed in the trap, cleaning the trap by hand is usually enough. If the blockage has moved on into the wall line, a thin-tipped motorised drain snake is used, and if needed the line is flushed with high-pressure water jetting. That way the flow comes back without taking out tiles or the countertop.

## Washbasin drains in Esenyurt's building stock

In Esenyurt, many housing complexes (sites) are made up of multi-block developments where hundreds of flats share the same drainage system. In tall blocks, when kitchen and bathroom lines connect to shared stacks, a narrowing in one flat can affect the neighbouring floors too.

In site management buildings and in businesses such as cafés or restaurants, the washbasin is used heavily all day, so paper towel and liquid soap residue builds up layer by layer in the trap. If the same washbasin blocks again and again, we look inside the line with a camera and pinpoint which block or floor the problem starts from.

## Frequently asked questions

### Why does a washbasin block in Esenyurt, and what should I do first?

The most common cause is a mix of hair and soap stuck under the drain. First check whether the water is standing at the bottom, then, if the plug can be removed, look at the build-up underneath. Do not pour in a chemical drain opener, as it can damage pipes and seals.

### How can I tell if the washbasin and shower are on the same line and the blockage is shared?

If the washbasin gurgles or bubbles while the shower is draining, there is a narrowing in the shared line. In that case the problem is usually in the wall line, and cleaning the trap alone is not enough.

### What should I do if the blockage keeps coming back in a site or business in Esenyurt?

With repeated blockages, the cause may have built up inside the line, so we first look inside the pipe with a camera. Sections coated with limescale or grease are flushed with high-pressure water jetting.
