# Sarıyer Blocked Drain Clearing

The first step in blocked drain clearing in Sarıyer is finding out which part of the plumbing the blockage is sitting in. It could be the sink trap, the connecting pipe, the shared stack or the building's outlet line, and each one has a different access point. Work done on the wrong section leaves the blockage exactly where it was.

At Cantley, we first inspect the problem on site and explain the cause to you, then we clear the drain. We use a camera to see where the blockage is and what kind it is, a motorised drain snake for solid blockages, and high-pressure water jetting for grease and sludge. We work through the line's existing openings, so we do not touch your tiles or walls. We work 24/7 in all 39 districts of Istanbul.

## Blocked drains in Sarıyer's building stock

In buildings along the Bosphorus shore, such as those in Tarabya and İstinye, the waste water line has only a limited fall, so water drains slowly and sediment builds up. In older houses on the slopes, cast iron, PVC and clay pipes were added in different periods, so working without a camera comes down to guesswork.

In houses with gardens in Zekeriyaköy and Kilyos, roots grow into the drain line, while in the office towers of Maslak the floor lines need regular maintenance. If a building caretaker sees the shower on a lower floor overflowing while the upper floors are using water, the problem is most often in the shared stack. In a student flat or dormitory, many people using the same bathroom line slows the sink and shower drains together.

## Frequently asked questions

### What should I do first if the sink and shower drain slowly in Sarıyer?

First check which drains have slowed down. If only one drain is affected, the blockage is in the trap or just beyond it. Do not pour in chemical drain opener, because the leftover chemical can build up inside the pipe and put both the line and you at risk. Rinse the drain with warm tap water and call us.

### What does it mean if dirty water comes up on a lower floor of my building in Sarıyer?

Most often it points to a blockage in the shared stack, because water coming down from the upper floors hits the blockage and backs up into the lower floors. Clearing only your own flat will not solve it, so let the building management know as well.

### Do I need a camera if blockages keep coming back in a student flat or dormitory?

Yes. For a recurring blockage, a camera is the clearest way to see the cause, because the blockage is often hidden in a pipe gradient, a sagging section or a broken joint. With the footage, we decide which method will clear the line without breaking anything.
