# Ümraniye Sewer Line Unclogging

Source: https://cantleyvidanjoraltyapi.com/en/umraniye-sewer-line-unclogging/

The question we hear most often about sewer line unclogging in Ümraniye is this: if water comes back up through a ground-floor toilet, is the problem in one flat or in the building's shared line? Waste water that rises in the lowest drain whenever water is used on the upper floors usually points to a blocked main line, and Cantley tells the two apart on site with a camera.

Tenants often check their own sink first, yet the same symptom can come from the building's shared line. A family in an older apartment block usually starts taking the problem seriously when the basement smells of sewage or rain floods the lower floor. For the landlord the first step is the same: finding out which section of the line has narrowed.

## Housing complex car parks and older apartment lines in Ümraniye

In Atakent and Çakmak, multi-block housing complexes with covered car parks are common, and the waste water lines of the blocks run through the car park ceiling and join in a shared pipe. Because sediment collects most at this junction, a damp patch or dripping on the car park ceiling can be the first clue.

In the older apartment buildings of Tantavi and Yukarı Dudullu, the plumbing has been renewed piece by piece, with pipes of different diameters joined together. When the slope is disturbed, sediment settles at the bottom. In the small workshops of Dudullu, floor drains and staff toilets keep the line under constant load.

## Frequently asked questions

### What should I do if water comes back up through the ground-floor toilet in Ümraniye?

First cut down on water use on the upper floors and tell building management straight away. When the water has nowhere to go, it returns through the lowest drain in the building, and waiting only makes the problem bigger. Do not pour in a chemical drain opener, as it can heat up inside the pipe and damage it.

### Who is responsible when the shared line is blocked?

The line that runs inside the building and across its plot is the responsibility of building management, while the main network in the street belongs to İSKİ. If the manholes are empty but water is collecting in the street chamber, this should be reported to İSKİ, and you should not try to work on the network yourself.

### Can a blockage come from a neighbouring building in Ümraniye?

Yes, this is possible when buildings rebuilt through urban renewal share the same garden manhole with their old neighbours. We follow the line with a camera to work out which building the problem comes from, and we unclog only the section that is actually blocked.
