Sultangazi Sewer Camera Inspection

If the drain in your basement workshop backs up after every rain, a sewer camera inspection in Sultangazi can find the source of the problem without breaking into the line. Unblocking a drain only clears the blocked spot, while the inspection shows the cause.

The Cantley team attaches a lit camera to the end of a flexible cable, sends it into the line through the drain or the manhole opening, and watches the inside surface of the pipe live on a screen. When a crack, collapse, root or displaced joint appears, the camera stops there and the distance of each finding from the entry point is noted. At the end of the inspection we watch the footage with you and decide, by looking at the screen, whether the line can be fixed by cleaning or whether a section needs replacing.

Camera inspection in Sultangazi's adjoining apartment blocks

In this district buildings sit right next to each other, and many have grown with floors added later. Because the shared line at the building outlet often stays at its original diameter, grease, hair and soap residue build up at the bends. The blockage shows first in ground-floor and basement flats, because water from the upper floors comes back up at the lowest drain.

When a site management reports a sewer smell in the ground-floor flats of one of the blocks, the camera follows the point where the shared line meets the building outlet on screen. If the drain of a small basement workshop runs slowly in the mornings, we tell apart the share of grease and sediment in the shared line and plan the cleaning accordingly. When the main line blocks, water can back up in basements further down the slope. In these buildings the lasting fix is to clean the line and then fit a backflow valve at the basement outlet.

Frequently asked questions

How is sewer camera inspection in Sultangazi different from drain unclogging?

Drain unclogging only clears the blocked spot, while the inspection shows the cause inside the line. If the same place keeps blocking, there may be a permanent obstruction inside the pipe.

How can I check the pipe under the floor when buying an old flat?

Inspecting the line before a purchase or renovation shows the condition under the floor before tiles are laid. If a cracked pipe ends up under new tiles, they have to be broken up later.

Is the line always broken open after a camera inspection?

No. The footage shows whether the problem can be solved by cleaning or whether replacing a small section is enough. If the line is sound, no unnecessary digging is done.
