# Kağıthane Shower and Bathtub Drain Unclogging

If the water rises to your ankles while you shower in your newly moved-into flat in Kağıthane, do not put off shower and bathtub drain unclogging in Kağıthane. In a new flat you do not know how the plumbing runs, so it is hard to guess whether the blockage is in the floor drain or in the building's shared line.

With a blocked bathroom drain, the first step is to see where hair and soap have caught. We start by inspecting the bathroom drains on site with a camera to locate the blockage, talk through the cause with you, and then move on to clearing the drain. From the shower drain strainer to the bathtub trap or the shared bathroom line, the work is done with high-pressure water jetting, a motorised drain snake and, if needed, a robotic machine, and the floor and wall tiles are not broken.

## Blockages in the bathrooms of older apartment buildings and residences in Kağıthane

In the older apartment buildings on the slopes of Kağıthane, the shared stacks collect grease and sediment from the upper floors in their lower section. The bathroom line joins this stack through a long, gently sloping horizontal pipe, so sediment builds up most at this point. In neighbourhoods such as Gültepe and Çağlayan, if the shower or bathtub drains slowly in a ground-floor flat, it can show that the problem is not in the flat but at the bottom of the stack.

In the newer residences on the valley floor, the kitchen and bathroom pipes of small flats connect to the stack through thin, long horizontal lines. If you have just moved into a flat, or site management has received several complaints, you first need to see whether the blockage is inside the flat or in the shared line.

## Frequently asked questions

### Why does the shower tray drain slowly in Kağıthane?

In most cases the cause is hair and soap residue that builds up under the shower drain strainer. In older buildings in Kağıthane, long and gently sloping bathroom lines let the residue grow over time. If clearing the strainer is not enough, we find the position of the blockage with a camera.

### What should I do if there is a sewer smell from the bathroom drain?

This smell usually comes from residue that has built up in the trap, or from the water seal of the strainer drying out. Scented products only mask the smell, and it will not go away for good until the residue is cleaned out. Do not pour boiling water down the drain, use only lukewarm tap water. Avoid chemical drain openers, as they can damage the pipe material.

### What should building management do to have a bathroom drain unclogged?

The first step is to understand whether the blockage affects a single flat or the shared bathroom line. We clarify this with a camera inspection on site and share the cause with you. If it is the shared line, it makes things easier to talk it over with management before the drain is cleared.
