On calls for PVC drain pipe replacement in Kağıthane, the first job when the team arrives at the address is to find where the leak or blockage starts. The ceiling of the flat below, the cupboard under the counter and the visible sections of the drain line are all checked together, because the same stain seen downstairs can sometimes come from a joint in the flat above, and sometimes from a wrongly sloped section further along the line.

In a flat you have just moved into, the bathroom drain may be running slowly, or a stain may have appeared on your downstairs neighbour's ceiling. In a café or restaurant, it shows up as a drain pipe sagging in the middle where it runs through the ceiling, and sinks slowing down under heavy use. In both cases a camera is sent into the pipe, and the crack, separated joint or slope fault appears on the screen. The decision to replace is made together after this inspection, and the new pipe is fitted using PVC pipe that matches the existing diameter, with gasketed fittings.

## Drain lines in old apartment blocks and new buildings in Kağıthane

In Kağıthane, old apartment blocks lined up on steep slopes and the offices and residences on the valley floor are connected to the same infrastructure. In older buildings, thin-walled pipes weaken over time because of grease and sediment that build up in the lower part of the shared stack. In newer residences, the thin, long horizontal runs of small flats also connect to the stack, so sediment collects at some point along these runs.

In offices and businesses, when the clamp of a drain pipe running through the ceiling loosens, the pipe sags in the middle and water collects. That is why, on a PVC drain pipe replacement job in Kağıthane, we prefer to see the sagging or badly sloped section by camera before deciding on replacement.

## Frequently asked questions

### If there is a stain on the ceiling of the flat below in Kağıthane, does the pipe need replacing?

A stain alone is not enough to decide on replacement, but if the source is a joint in the PVC pipe, the pipe may need to be replaced. If the camera inspection shows a crack, a separated joint or sagging, you decide together which section will be replaced.

### Will the walls or ceiling be badly damaged during pipe replacement?

No, only the spot where the fault is located is opened, and no breaking is done on exposed runs such as behind a suspended ceiling, behind a cupboard or in a basement. The work area is protected with covers, and the opened spot is left ready to be closed at the end of the job.

### When is the PVC pipe renewed in a café or restaurant in Kağıthane?

Renewal comes up when the drain pipe running through the ceiling is sagging, leaking at the joints or blocking repeatedly at the same drain. In that case, do not try to clear the blockage with a chemical drain opener, because the opener can generate heat inside the pipe and weaken the gaskets.
