# Güngören Balcony Drain Unclogging

Source: https://cantleyvidanjoraltyapi.com/en/gungoren-balcony-drain-unclogging/

The need for balcony drain unclogging in Güngören often shows itself when water is still standing on the balcony long after the rain has stopped. Even if the top of the strainer looks clean, the blockage usually forms in the elbow just below it, so cleaning the surface is often not enough.

At Cantley, we first come to the balcony and inspect the inside of the pipe with a camera, find where the blockage is and share the cause with you. We then clear the elbow with a motorised drain snake with a fine tip and, if needed, flush the downpipe with high-pressure water. We try to reach the whole pipe from the drain opening, without breaking the balcony floor or the wall. If the problem gets worse at night or over the weekend, you can reach us on 0212 923 66 85 or via WhatsApp.

## Why balcony drains block easily in Güngören

On the Merter side of Güngören, business centres and shop and showroom floors stand out, while in the rest of the district rows of five and six-storey apartment buildings are common. Because most of the buildings were put up in the same period and the plumbing was altered over time as needs changed, the horizontal section connecting the balcony drain to the downpipe can be narrow or old. Greasy water from the upper floors and dirt that builds up in old shared stacks also put strain on this line.

In offices and business centres, washing down a terrace or balcony during the day carries sand and dirt into the strainer, and in buildings with a café or restaurant, crumbs and grease can get into the drain. For workplaces that operate on weekdays, moving the job outside working days is a practical way to solve the problem without disrupting the flow of work.

## Frequently asked questions

### How can I tell if my balcony drain is blocked in Güngören?

If water is not draining from the balcony floor even after the rain has stopped, the drain pipe may have narrowed. Water reaching the threshold and seeping in under the door, or a damp stain appearing on the ceiling of the flat below, can also be signs of the same problem. Wiping the surface of the strainer gives only temporary relief, but the blockage usually stays inside the elbow.

### How can I reach you to get a balcony drain unclogged in Güngören?

You can reach us by calling 0212 923 66 85 or by writing to us on WhatsApp. In your message, saying how long the water has been pooling and whether there is a drain smell makes the first assessment easier. If you also send your location, the team can prepare in advance.

### Can a balcony drain that has been covered over still be unclogged?

In most cases a covered drain can be unclogged, because we first use a camera to find where the connection leads. If mortar or silicone has got into the pipe during the covering, it is cleared and, if necessary, assessed together with replacing the PVC drain pipe. Whether the balcony floor will need to be broken is also discussed based on the result of this inspection.
