# Sarıyer Washbasin Unclogging

If you noticed while washing your hands this morning that the water was sitting at the bottom of the basin and forming a grey puddle, do not put off washbasin unclogging in Sarıyer. Leaving the tap running and waiting only makes things worse, because the layer of hair and soap that builds up in the first few centimetres of the drain keeps hardening. The first job is to find out where the blockage really is.

Cantley starts at your property: first we check the trap under the washbasin, the plug mechanism and the connection running into the wall one by one, then we act according to where the blockage sits. A blockage in the plug or the trap can be cleared by hand; a deposit that has settled in the wall line needs a motorised drain snake or high-pressure water jetting. When a blockage keeps coming back or the line is long, a CCTV drain camera inspection shows the inside of the pipe and guides the work.

## How Sarıyer's building stock affects washbasin drains

In buildings along the Bosphorus shore such as Tarabya and İstinye, the fall of the line is often limited, so water runs slowly and sediment collects at the washbasin inlet. For a site management whose complex has a washbasin on the basement floor, water can come back up when the main line under the coast road is congested, and a similar picture can appear on the building's shared stack. In older buildings on the slopes, cast iron and PVC drain pipe sections were added at different times, so saying which joint is blocked without a camera is guesswork. That is why we inspect first and unclog afterwards.

In detached houses with gardens in Zekeriyaköy and Kilyos, washbasin drains connect to a long line, and roots from the garden can enter at the joints and cause a blockage. In summer homes in Kilyos, the trap of a washbasin that goes unused in winter dries out, and this comes back as a bad smell in the house. In the office towers of Maslak, washbasins connected to the floor lines are used heavily all day; in this kind of workplace we work without disrupting operations, at a time the building management finds suitable.

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I unclog a washbasin myself in Sarıyer?

Taking out the plug and cleaning the hair and sediment from the trap is the first step you can do yourself. If the blockage is further along than the trap, it is right to leave it to us. Pouring in a chemical drain opener can damage the pipe and make the problem even harder.

### How does washbasin unclogging work?

The first step is to look at the problem at your property and share the cause with you. Then the trap, the plug and the wall line are checked in turn, and the blockage is cleared where it is found, with a drain snake or pressurised water. When the job is done, the basin is filled and emptied to test the flow.

### Does pulling the plug out by force damage the washbasin?

Yes. If you pull the plug out of its seat by force, its seal can be damaged and a leak can start under the washbasin. If a push-type or rod-type plug does not open properly, first look at the hair and sticky sediment wrapped around the underside of the mechanism.

## If your washbasin has slowed down, do not wait
