Scope and limits
We distinguish kitchen-sink and bathroom-basin connections. Kitchen lines may have grease deposits; basin lines require checking connections and other obstructions. Mechanical equipment needs a suitable access point.
If the blockage clears further away than expected or keeps coming back in the kitchen, we look at the line with a camera. If the camera shows heavy grease, we may suggest washing as separate maintenance.
A job in Avcılar Yeşilkent
A four-metre kitchen line: unblocking, camera, washing
Water was backing up from the kitchen sink of a customer living on the third floor. We worked on the kitchen drain line with our ROTHENBERGER R600 drain cleaning machine.
The blockage cleared further away than we expected. To understand why, we filmed the line: the kitchen line ran about four metres before reaching the building’s main drain connection. Some sections showed signs of insufficient slope, and there was heavy grease.
We showed the images to the customer and suggested washing the drain line at a separate price. Once the quote was accepted, we washed the line, focusing on the sections with the heaviest grease.
After washing we checked the line on camera again and showed the customer the before and after images. When we ran water from the sink, the water that had been backing up drained quickly and without problems.
- Done Machine unblocking, camera inspection, accepted line washing, camera after washing and a flow test from the sink.
- With the customer Camera images before and after washing.
- Limit Washing cleaned the inside of the pipe; it did not fix the slope. Because the long route and insufficient slope remain, a new blockage is possible.
Grease and slope in kitchen lines
A long kitchen drain is not a fault in itself. But if a long line does not have enough slope, greasy water flows slowly; grease and food residue can build up over time and narrow the inside of the pipe. That is why seeing the line on camera helps when a kitchen drain keeps blocking.
Washing removes deposits and can reduce the risk of a new blockage, but it does not change the line’s slope.
Before the visit
So the technician can reach the drain, empty the space under the counter. If you tried a chemical opener, tell us its name; if water is backing up, do not use that drain.
Relevant fee conditions
Kitchen sink, basin, shower: 3,000 TL · Independent drain line
Kitchen main line: 4,500 TL · Shared main line
A collapsed pipe, large hard object, hardened scale or obstruction in public infrastructure may resist mechanical unblocking. In such cases, the full initially agreed unblocking fee applies. We quote separately for any repair.
Tell us about two independent blocked lines during your call. If a second independent job emerges on site, we explain the additional price before starting. We may offer to credit the unblocking fee against a repair quote for that job; this is not an automatic discount.
Daytime prices apply from 06:00 to 00:00. From 00:00 to 06:00, a 50% surcharge applies to the daytime price. Daytime prices also apply during daytime hours on weekends and public holidays.
Common questions
What does the unblocking fee include?
Camera use required for the job and necessary toilet removal and refitting are included in the agreed price for that unblocking job. Repairs and separately recommended drain washing have their own prices.
Is washing done on every unblocking?
No. We suggest washing separately when the camera shows heavy grease and dirt on the pipe wall. We give the price first; if you do not accept, only the unblocking is done.
Is a repeat blockage visit chargeable?
If the crew is still at the property and the original obstruction has not been fully cleared, we continue without an extra unblocking fee. A new call for a blockage after the completed work has been tested is chargeable. We do not guarantee that a line will never block again.
