Şile Washbasin Unclogging

In a ground-floor flat, if the washbasin drains slowly and a sour smell comes from the drain opening, the cause is usually the layer of hair and soap in the first few centimetres of the drain. In a building with a basement floor, the same washbasin may narrow together with a shower connected to the shared line, and one washbasin's problem can be felt across the whole floor. At your address, we at Cantley first examine the area under the washbasin and the wall connection and explain the cause to you, then we clear the blockage with a drain snake or high-pressure water.

In Şile's houses with gardens, the drain line leaves the house and runs a long way along the garden, sometimes passing through manholes on the way. Roots from nearby trees find the smallest gap at these joints and grow inside, and over the years they can narrow the pipe. When the washbasin slows down, the source of the problem can sometimes turn out to be this garden line.

In the summer complexes in central Şile, sand that guests bring back from the sea and washes off in the shower, along with pine needles that fill the terrace, collects in the drains. In homes that stay closed over winter, the traps dry out and the remaining residue hardens, so a problem can appear on first use as spring begins. At such addresses the trap is cleaned first, and if the water still does not run, a motorised drain snake is fed into the in-wall line to reach the blockage.
