Sancaktepe Blocked Drain Clearing
The need for blocked drain clearing in Sancaktepe often starts on the morning you notice the kitchen sink draining slowly. If water then starts to pool in the shower drain a few days later, you know the problem does not belong to a single drain. The real question is where the blockage is sitting.
The same symptom can come from the trap, the connecting pipe, the building's shared stack or the building's outlet to the street. Work on the wrong section leaves the blockage where it is, so we first inspect the problem at your address and explain the cause to you. Seeing inside the line with a camera shows exactly where to begin clearing.
Blocked drains in Sancaktepe by building type
Around Samandıra and Sarıgazi there are many houses that were built with one or two storeys and had floors added later. The original plumbing was laid for a few people, so once flats are added on top, sediment settles at the points where the gradient is weak. In a detached house with a garden in Sarıgazi, the connecting pipe running out to the street is long, and tree roots can find their way in.
In newly built blocks in Yenidoğan, the problem usually comes from mortar, plaster and packaging left in the pipe during construction, and the first overflow often shows up in the ground-floor flat. In the kitchen line of a café or restaurant in Samandıra, fat cools and sticks to the pipe wall, narrowing the inner diameter. A camera recording shows both cases clearly and helps you tell a construction defect from a build-up caused by use.
Frequently asked questions
What will I be asked when I call about a blockage in Sancaktepe?
You will be asked which floor you are on, which drains have slowed down, where the water is rising from and whether your neighbours have a similar problem. These answers largely show which section the blockage is in.
The sink is slow but the shower runs normally. Where is the problem?
Most likely the blockage is only in the trap of that one drain, or in the first stretch of pipe right behind it. Do not pour boiling water into the blockage. Use warm tap water, because very hot water can damage plastic pipe.
What should I do if water overflows from the manhole in Sancaktepe?
The first step is to stop using water and call us, without climbing down into the manhole. Toxic gas can be present inside, so do not try to deal with it yourself. The longer a blockage at the building outlet is left, the wider the overflow spreads.
