Maltepe No-Dig Drain Unclogging
If your café's kitchen drain has slowed down and foul-smelling water is coming back up from the sink in a ground-floor flat, no-dig drain unclogging in Maltepe is designed for exactly this kind of situation. Breaking the tiles first to search for the pipe often means going to the wrong spot and ending up with dusty, unnecessary building work.
When the team arrives at the address, they test the drains, check where the water stops and talk through the findings with you. A waterproof camera is then fed in from the entry point closest to the pipe to show at which metre the blockage sits. If the blockage is a sticky deposit, we strip the layer from the pipe wall with a motorised drain snake or a robot head, and finally flush the line with high-pressure water jetting. As long as the pipe is intact, there is no need to break anything. If we see a crushed section or a reverse fall, we tell you that plainly too.
Maltepe lines where old and new buildings stand side by side
Urban renewal is intense in Maltepe, and it shows directly in the drains. In Küçükyalı and Altayçeşme, when new buildings rise next to older apartment blocks, a level difference or a crack can form at the joint where the outlet pipes were attached to the old connection. With the camera we inspect that joint and work out which line the problem is on.
North of the E-5, in İdealtepe, Cevizli and Zümrütevler, the kitchen and bathroom drains in mid-rise blocks connect to a shared stack. If the flat below is overflowing, grease and sediment have often built up at a bend in the stack. In buildings with a café or restaurant on the ground floor, the grease load is higher still.
Frequently asked questions
Do tiles need to be broken for a blockage in Maltepe?
In most cases they do not, because blockages can be reached through the drain opening itself or through an access hatch. The camera shows the location, and the snake or robot head works its way along inside the pipe. If breaking becomes unavoidable, we go in at a single small spot.
What should I do if my café or restaurant drain keeps blocking?
For a drain that blocks often, the best step is to look at the line with a camera and identify the grease build-up. Chemical drain openers can damage the pipe material and make the inspection harder. Not pouring grease down the drain and flushing with lukewarm tap water are safer steps.
Why does the basement drain back up after rain?
When the line fills up in heavy rain, water can be pushed back out through the drain opening in the basement. First the base of the stack and the building outlet are cleared, then the camera is used to check at which point the line narrows. That way no unnecessary digging is done.
