Eyüpsultan PVC Drain Pipe Unclogging
When the kitchen sink starts to drain slowly and a gurgling from inside the wall wakes you at night, PVC drain pipe unclogging in Eyüpsultan can no longer wait. In a blocked PVC pipe the water cannot move on, so the pressure shows up as a leak at the weakest joint. At Cantley we first look inside the pipe with a camera and explain the cause to you, then we clear the blockage.
A manager who notices the washbasin drain slowing down in an office in a business centre, and an elderly couple living in an old flat near the Eyüp Sultan Mosque, call with different expectations when they face the same problem. The manager wants work to carry on without interruption, while the couple expect the pipe to be fixed without damage and without heavy work being done in their home. In both cases the line needs to be seen with a camera first.
PVC drain lines in Eyüpsultan's old and new buildings
In the stone and timber houses around the Eyüp Sultan Mosque, PVC lines added later can collect deposits where they join the old pipe. That is why, before clearing without breaking anything, you need to see with a camera where the line narrows. On the steep slopes running down to the Golden Horn water moves fast, but grease and crumbs can still catch in the pipe.
In the villa complexes of Göktürk and Kemerburgaz, tree roots can get into long garden lines. In Alibeyköy, the bends in the shared stacks of multi-storey buildings hold back waste, and the lower floors are the first to be affected. Working with a single method without knowing the age and layout of the pipe raises the risk of unnecessary damage to the PVC.
Frequently asked questions
How do I know if my PVC drain pipe is blocked in Eyüpsultan?
Your PVC drain pipe may be blocked if the sink or shower drains slowly, if you hear gurgling from inside the wall, or if you see dripping at the joints. A damp stain on the ceiling of the floor below shows that the pipe is backing up. If these signs appear together, looking with a camera is a more reliable way to find exactly where the problem is.
Can the pipe crack while it is being unclogged?
When the right method is used, the pipe is largely protected. The motorised drain snake is used with a head that has no sharp edges and at a low rotation speed, and we stop at any point where it meets resistance and assess the pipe. After cleaning, the camera footage shows whether the line is intact.
Will pouring boiling water down the sink damage a PVC drain pipe?
Yes, boiling water can soften PVC and loosen the joints. Even a single pour can make the inner surface wavy, and deposits then start to cling to it. For a blockage, warm tap water is enough. Chemical drain openers, if they fail to dissolve the blockage, can stay in the pipe and wear out the seals.
