Kadıköy Sewer Line Renewal
The need for sewer line renewal in Kadıköy is most often noticed when a sink drains slowly or a smell comes up from the basement floor drain. If you have a detached house with a garden, or a small workshop with a back area, and the blockage returns to the same spot after every cleaning, the problem may be the pipe itself rather than a build-up of residue. In that case, instead of clearing it again, you need to find out at which point the line has failed.
At Cantley we first look inside the line with a camera, because a broken joint or a section crushed by a root is impossible to see from the surface. Using the footage, we establish where the damaged part starts and ends, mark it on the ground and explain in advance how wide an area will be opened. Replacing only the faulty section with new PVC pipe, without touching the pipe that is still sound, disturbs the ground and the surroundings less.
Why old buildings in Kadıköy have different line problems
In Moda and Yeldeğirmeni, the cast iron stacks of stone apartment buildings dating from the turn of the century become rough on the inside and catch grease and soap easily. For this reason the blockage often starts at the bottom of the stack, at the connection that runs from the basement out to the street. Along Bağdat Caddesi and around Göztepe, Erenköy and Suadiye, new buildings rising through urban renewal add more flats, which increases the load carried by the old street connection.
In cafés in the market area, coffee grounds and milk residue narrow the kitchen lines, while in restaurants frying oil and food waste do the same. In basement bars, floor drains fill with waste left over from the night and leave a smell by morning. In Fenerbahçe and Caddebostan, close to the seafront, the part of the line that runs under the garden is one of the first places to check in a house with a garden.
Frequently asked questions
When is sewer line renewal needed in Kadıköy?
Renewal comes up when the blockage keeps returning to the same spot at short intervals after cleaning, when the camera shows a broken or separated pipe, or when there is subsidence in the garden or dampness in the basement that does not go away. In older buildings in Kadıköy, blockages often occur at the connection that runs from the basement out to the street. We make the decision by watching the camera footage together with you.
Will the whole line be replaced in my home in Kadıköy, or only the damaged part?
In most cases only the section where the camera shows a fault is replaced. If the line is worn along its whole length, replacing the entire line is discussed. Which route to take becomes clear after the footage has been watched and the condition of the rest of the line is understood.
Will the garden or paving be restored after the renewal?
Yes. Once the area around the pipe has been wrapped with the right backfill, the opened area is closed and the work area is tidied up. Garden soil and paving material are set aside neatly, which makes putting them back easier. You can also see the camera footage of the new section before it is closed.
