Drain and Sewer Services in Silivri
With our Silivri drain unclogging service, the Cantley team comes 24/7 to every part of the district, from the holiday homes on the coast to the villages inland, and clears the drain without breaking anything or digging. The address may change, but the way we work does not. The camera shows the inside of the line, so we can see where sand, sediment or roots have collected and send in the right machine for it. We work without touching your ceramic tiles or garden paving, and when the job is done we run the tap with you and watch the water drain away.
Drain problems in Silivri follow a calendar. In summer the coastal complexes fill up, the population multiplies in a short time, and lines that were barely used all winter suddenly have to cope with a heavy load. In winter, the empty homes have dry traps and the sediment in the lines hardens. In the town centre, in the blocks of flats lived in all year round and in the newer complexes, we see the more familiar city-style blockages. That is why we ask when the property is used when you call. We prepare the equipment accordingly.
A load that changes with the season: holiday complexes and year-round homes
Coastal settlements such as Selimpaşa and Gümüşyaka have many holiday complexes. The shared lines in these complexes were often not designed for summer, when every home is occupied at the same time, or they have been pushed past their capacity by homes added over the years. A problem that starts in one home's toilet in the first weeks of the season can quickly turn into an overflowing complex manhole. Sand washed off in the shower after a day at the sea also settles in the bends of bathroom drains and slows the water. In jobs like this we do not stop at clearing one home's drain, we also check the complex's shared line. Flushing the line at the end of the season also lowers the chance of facing the same problem next summer.
In the centre of Silivri, older blocks of flats lived in all year round stand alongside complexes built in recent years. In older buildings, grease build-up in kitchen lines and narrowing in the shared stack stand out, while in newer complexes, material that slipped into the pipe during construction can cause trouble. In inland settlements such as Değirmenköy, the connections between houses with gardens and farmland are long, and mud and roots can build up along the line. Whatever type of address you are at, the team inspects first, then clears, and explains the work to you step by step. In village houses, it also helps if an older member of the family who knows where the manhole is stays with us while we work.
Problems left behind by summer crowds and winter quiet
Some of our calls in Silivri relate to the summer crowds, and some to homes left empty in winter. These are the jobs we do most often.
Manhole Unclogging
In holiday complexes, we clear the shared manhole that overflows in the first busy week of the season, working from above. We clean the inlet and outlet pipes with a drain snake and tell site management which homes' lines carry the most sediment. Nobody ever goes down into the manhole.
Shower and Bathtub Drain Unclogging
Sand washed off in the shower after the beach settles in the bend of the bathroom drain and slows the water. We flush the strainer and the line with pressurised water, show you where the sand has collected, and talk through preventive measures with you, such as a foot shower at the door. A fine mesh fitted to the strainer also catches most of the sand.
Sewer Cleaning
In complex lines left unused all winter, the sediment hardens. Cleaning the main line from end to end with high-pressure water jetting before the season starts prevents overflows during the summer crowds. We plan this work with site management in advance.
Kitchen Sink Unclogging
In older blocks of flats in central Silivri and in holiday homes that host many guests, the grease going down the kitchen drain gradually narrows the line. We break up the grease layer with a drain snake, then check the connections of the trap under the worktop to make sure there is no leak.
CCTV Drain Unclogging
In houses with gardens in inland areas such as Değirmenköy, it is hard to guess where a blockage is on a long connection line. We follow the line with the camera to see whether there is mud, roots or a collapsed pipe, and choose the clearing method accordingly.

Frequently asked questions
We have just opened our holiday home in Silivri and the bathroom smells bad. Is there a blockage?
A smell does not always mean a blockage; it often comes from traps that have dried out over the winter. The water in the trap acts as a seal that holds back the air coming from the line. Running water down all the drains for a while usually stops the smell. If the smell continues or the water drains slowly, sediment may have built up in the line; in that case we inspect it with the camera and do the necessary cleaning. For homes that have been closed for a long time, doing this check at the start of the season is the easiest way.
The manhole in our complex in Silivri overflows in summer but there is no problem all winter. Why?
Because in summer all the homes in the complex are in use at the same time, and the shared line takes more load than it can carry. Sediment that has built up over winter also restricts the flow once the load increases. Cleaning the main line before the season and checking the manhole's outlet pipe greatly reduces these overflows. We recommend setting up a maintenance schedule together with management. A short check at the end of the season is also a good start for the following year.
Our shower drain in Silivri filled with sand after coming back from the sea. Can I clear it myself?
For a light build-up, you can remove the strainer, take out the visible sand by hand, then rinse with lukewarm water. If the sand has settled in the bend, pushing it with water can pack it in even tighter. Do not pour boiling water, as it can damage the joints of PVC drain pipes. If the water still drains slowly, we flush the line with pressurised water and remove the sand completely.
Do you also come to the villages of Silivri?
Yes, as well as central Silivri we also come to the coastal settlements and the villages inland. Garden lines in village houses are long, so it helps us if you tell us the approximate length of the line and the location of the manhole, if there is one, when you call. The team arrives with a drain snake of suitable length and a camera. Sending your location as a pin on WhatsApp is also very useful.
