Fatih No-Dig Drain Unclogging

Looking for no-dig drain unclogging in Fatih often starts on a morning when you notice the sink draining slowly. If the shower is also slow to empty, there may be a narrowing in the shared line where the two drains join.

On Fatih's historic peninsula breaking into walls or floors is often not possible, so you need to know exactly where the problem is. In an office or commercial building, dozens of drains connect to the same line, and in a student flat one old pipe may carry the water of several flats. The Cantley team comes to the address, tests the drains and brings the inside of the pipe up on a screen with a camera, so you can see where the blockage is. The clearing is done with a robot, a drain snake or pressurised water, and it does not touch the wall.

No-dig unclogging in Fatih's old building stock

In the terraced houses on the slopes of Balat and Fener, in the guest houses around Sultanahmet and in the hans of the Grand Bazaar, the original layout of the pipework is often unknown. Old lines and later additions are tangled together, and cast iron and clay pipes become rough on the inside and hold on to deposits.

In the hotels and commercial buildings of Aksaray and Laleli, the water from dozens of bathrooms is collected in the same shared stack, and hair and soap residue build up on the lower floors. In the restaurants of Kumkapı, grease cools and hardens in the line. Because historic walls cannot be broken, locating the blockage with a camera and clearing it from the inside is often the method you need in Fatih.

Frequently asked questions

Do tiles or walls need to be broken for a blockage in Fatih?

In most cases they do not, because once the location is found with the camera, the robot or snake enters through the drain opening. Breaking only comes into question when the pipe is crushed, a joint has separated or the slope has reversed.

What is camera inspection for, and can I see the result?

The camera brings the inside of the pipe up on a screen and shows the type of blockage and how far along the pipe it is. You watch the footage together, and you decide what to do by looking at it.

What should I do if the blockage has been cleared several times but keeps coming back?

A blockage that returns at short intervals shows that the problem lies deeper in the line. In this case the robot head and pressurised water scrape the layer of grease and limescale off the pipe wall along its length. Chemical openers can damage pipes and seals, so it is safer to tell us about them first.
