# Silivri Sewer Line Unclogging

Sewer line unclogging in Silivri is often needed when water comes back up from a ground-floor toilet or a drain smell is noticed in the basement. At that point the problem lies with the building's shared line, not with a single flat. At Cantley, our first step in Silivri, on Istanbul's European side, is to see on camera where the problem is.

A family living on the upper floor of an older apartment building in Silivri notices that the shower water has been draining slowly for a while, then sees damp in front of the basement door. When the neighbours upstairs report a similar complaint, it becomes clear that the problem is not in one home. For this kind of job, we first open the manholes one by one, from the building entrance down to the basement, and check the water levels. The section between a full manhole and an empty one narrows down where the blockage is, and we send the camera there.

## Main lines in Silivri's older apartment buildings and holiday complexes

In central Silivri, older apartment buildings with year-round residents stand next to complexes built in recent years. Grease from a small workshop's sink and from the building's kitchens can thicken in old shared stacks and narrow the line. In newer complexes, material that got into the pipe during construction can come back years later as a blockage.

In coastal areas such as Selimpaşa and Gümüşyaka, the shared lines of holiday complexes may not have been designed for the summer months, when every home is occupied at the same time. A problem that starts in one home in the first weeks of the season can spread to the complex's manholes. In inland areas such as Değirmenköy, the lines between houses with gardens are long, so silt and root build-up can occur. At these addresses too, we first look at the line by camera, then move on to the unclogging.

## Frequently asked questions

### What should I do first when the main line of my building in Silivri is blocked?

First talk to your neighbours to see whether slow draining or water coming back up is also happening in other flats, then inform the building management. If waste water is rising from the ground floor, do not pour chemical opener down the drain yourself, because the residue stays in the pipe and puts both the plumbing and you at risk. Just call us and we will inspect at the address first.

### Is the blockage in the street network or in the building's own line?

If the building's last manhole is empty but the shaft in the street is full, the problem is in İSKİ's network and the report should be made to İSKİ. If your manholes and the line running through the building are full, the unclogging is done on the building side, and we confirm this by camera. Residents should not try to work on the network themselves.

### When should a holiday complex in Silivri have its line flushed?

Flushing the line at the end of the season reduces the chance of a blockage starting the following summer. When the first slowdown appears at the start of summer, checking by camera without waiting stops the blockage from growing. Clearing the drain of a single home is not enough, and the shared line should be checked at the same time.
