Şişli Sewer Line Renewal
If the sink in the flat you have just moved into drains slowly every morning, and the line you had jetted keeps coming back full at the same spot, the question of sewer line renewal in Şişli comes up. In this case, that section of pipe has usually cracked, collapsed or narrowed because of roots. First we look inside the line with a camera and show you the faulty section together.
In a small workshop the same symptom looks different: after cleaning, the drain slows down again by midday. Cleaning alone only relieves this line for a while, and as long as the sag or the break stays in place, water waits there. The camera footage shows which section will be replaced and where the floor will be opened. That way the decision rests on what you have watched inside the pipe.
Line problems in Şişli's old apartment buildings and commercial buildings
In the old apartment buildings of Nişantaşı, Kurtuluş and Feriköy, the waste water stacks are often still made of cast iron. Cast iron rusts from the inside and holds on to grease and soap scale, so the bore narrows over the years. The places where flat connections were made with PVC drain pipe are the joints that cause the most trouble. On these ageing lines we do not set the pressure without looking at the footage.
Around Mecidiyeköy and Bomonti, tall office buildings, residences and shopping centres dominate, and the problem often comes from heavy use. Many toilets connected to the same floor line, plus grease from a café or restaurant on the ground floor, build up in the shared line. In office buildings we plan the work for a time the building management finds suitable, and in old apartment buildings we inform the neighbours beforehand.
Frequently asked questions
What is the first step for sewer line renewal in Şişli?
The first step is to clear the line and look inside it with a camera. This inspection finds where the faulty section starts and ends, measured by its distance from the entry point, and marks it on the floor. We watch the footage with you and then decide together what will be replaced.
Is the whole line renewed, or only one section?
If the damage is concentrated at a single point, only that part is cut out and new PVC pipe is laid in its place. If the line is worn along its whole length, renewing all of it is discussed. We decide which is suitable after watching the footage together.
How is the garden or basement floor affected during the work?
The floor opening is limited to the marked section, and how wide it will be opened is explained to you beforehand. The material taken out of the excavation is collected in one place, and at the end of the job the fill is put back and the floor is closed. Before closing, plenty of water is run through the line, the joints are checked and the footage of the new section is shown to you.
