Drain and Sewer Services in Pendik
When your Pendik drain unclogging call comes in, the Cantley team heads out 24/7 to addresses across the district, from the area around the pier to Kurtköy, and clears the blocked drain without breaking anything or making a mess. We work the same way for a flat on the old streets running down to the seafront and for a housing complex car park towards Kurtköy: first we look inside the line with a camera, then we deal with the blockage using a motorised drain snake or high-pressure water jetting. Tiles and walls stay where they are. At the end of the job we run the water and watch the flow together with you, and we explain what caused the blockage.
Pendik is a large district, and drain problems change from one area to the next. Around the centre and the pier, you mostly find buildings that have been altered many times over the years, plus apartment blocks with restaurants on the ground floor. Around Kurtköy and Yenişehir, housing complexes made up of multi-storey blocks rise up. These two types of building block up for different reasons, so when you call, it speeds things up if we ask how many floors your building has and on which floor the blockage shows. A photo or a short video helps a great deal too.
Between the old buildings of the town centre and the tall blocks of Kurtköy
In central Pendik, on the streets close to the pier and the railway line, there are many old buildings with a shop on the ground floor and homes above. In these buildings the shop drain is often connected to the same line the flats use. Grease from businesses such as fishmongers, restaurants or patisseries sets in the cold sections of the pipe and narrows the line from the inside. As a result, the blockage often shows up not in the shop but in the bathroom of the lowest flat. In buildings like these we film the shop and flat connections separately to pinpoint where the load comes from, and we clear both sides.
In the tall blocks around Kurtköy, Yenişehir and Kaynarca, the situation is different. Water falling quickly down long stacks hits the bend at the foot of the building with great force and packs down the debris that has collected there. Detergent foam from washing machines and dishwashers also gathers at this bend, which is why foam coming up through the sink in ground-floor and first-floor flats is common in these buildings. With a complaint like this we look beyond the flat's own drain, and check the foot of the stack and the main connection in the car park as well. Working with the complex's technical staff makes it easier to work out which stack belongs to which block. Finding out the location of the inspection hatch at the building entrance beforehand also shortens the job.
The jobs we meet in Pendik's two different faces
Most calls in Pendik fall under one of these five headings, and each is linked to a particular type of building in the district.
Sewer Cleaning
In multi-block housing complexes in Kurtköy, the main line running under the car park narrows over time with sediment and grease. We flush the line from end to end with high-pressure water, then run the camera through after cleaning to show management that no residue is left. We also pass on a note of which block's connection the build-up was concentrated at.
Washbasin Unclogging
If foam or grey water rises through the sink on the lower floors of tall blocks, the problem is often not in the flat but at the foot of the stack. While clearing the sink we also check the stack connection and explain why the foam keeps coming back. If needed, we call the complex's technical officer as well.
Sewer Line Unclogging
In buildings in the Pendik town centre with a restaurant on the ground floor, we clear the shared line blocked with grease using a motorised drain snake. If needed, we plan the job for an hour when the business is closed, so the line does not shut off completely while the kitchen is working. At the end of the job we also talk about how grease can be separated at the counter.
Toilet Unclogging
We clear a toilet blocked by wet wipes, sanitary pads or a child's toy without removing it. If the object is lodged in the bend of the toilet, we work with tips that do not scratch the porcelain and show you the item we pull out. In Pendik this job comes up often in flats where large families live.
No-Dig Drain Unclogging
In the old buildings on the seafront side, the pipes run under the plaster and between floors. We clear the blockage without breaking tiles, going in through the existing drain opening and inspection hatch. If we see damage that might require breaking, we consult you first.

Frequently asked questions
I live in a tall housing complex in Pendik. Why is foam coming up through my sink?
The foam comes from detergent and sediment collecting at the lower bend of the stack. When a washing machine or dishwasher empties on the upper floors, the foamy water cannot get through the narrow point at the bottom and heads for the nearest outlet, the sink on a lower floor. In this case, clearing the flat's drain gives temporary relief. For a lasting fix, the foot of the stack and the main line need cleaning, and we plan this together with site management.
The drain of my shop in the Pendik town centre is blocked. Do I need to close the business?
In most cases you do not need to close. While we clear the blockage, we only ask that that one drain is not used. If there is heavy grease build-up in the kitchen drain, it is more convenient to schedule the job for an hour when there are fewer customers. After clearing it, we also give a short recommendation on the condition of the grease trap and on how grease can be separated at the counter.
Water is overflowing from the manhole in the car park of our complex in Kurtköy. What should we do?
Clear the area around the manhole, do not leave the cover open and do not let anyone climb down into it. Overflow usually means the outlet pipe of the manhole is blocked. When the team arrives, they clear the outlet line with the snake and pressure water, then check the block lines connected to the manhole one by one. Noting the hours when the overflow gets worse helps us work out which block's line is adding the load.
Are bathroom tiles broken when you clear a blockage in Pendik?
No, we do not break tiles to clear a blockage. We use the floor drain grate or the toilet connection to get the machine into the pipe, and we clear the blocked spot while watching it on the camera. Breaking only comes into question if the pipe itself has collapsed or broken. If we see something like that, we show you the footage, and we do not touch anything until you decide. Thanks to the camera inspection, the location of the problem can be seen down to the centimetre.
