When drain backflow occurs in Zeytinburnu, distinguishing between a single apartment line and a shared building line changes the scope of the job. Describe the affected drains to us so we can discuss the appropriate inspection and unblocking work.

When the issue is in a single drain
If water is standing in a kitchen sink, washbasin, or shower, we evaluate the visible connection and the line beyond it. If there is also dripping from underneath, we discuss separately whether part repair is needed. We do not finalize a repair or unblocking method solely because a single fixture is affected.
Interconnected drains can be handled within a single job, whereas independent lines fall under separate scopes. Letting us know which fixtures are affected at the same time also clarifies the pricing discussion.
We price by job scope rather than by district name
| Service | Fee | Scope |
|---|---|---|
| Water leak detection | 3,000 TL | Inspected apartment; detection only |
| Kitchen / basin drain | 3,000 TL | Each independent apartment line |
| Shower / floor drain | 3,000 TL | Each independent apartment line |
| Toilet / WC drain | 3,500 TL | Each independent apartment line |
| Wall-hung toilet drain | 4,000 TL | Each independent apartment line |
| Kitchen / basin / shower main line | 4,500 TL | Shared building line for these drains |
| Toilet main line | 5,500 TL | Shared building line connected to toilets |
| Drain odour detection | 3,000 TL | 1 kitchen + 1 bathroom1 |
1 Drain odour detection: Per standard apartment; one kitchen and one bathroom together; detection only
For a standard small apartment and daytime service at your address in Zeytinburnu, the scopes below apply. A different neighbourhood name does not automatically create a separate price. Together we identify the fault and the affected line, and we explain which fee will apply before starting work.
At night between 00:00 and 06:00, 50% is added to the daytime fee. On weekends and public holidays, the 06:00–00:00 daytime rate applies. We schedule visits according to team availability and job conditions; leak and odour inspections are mostly carried out during the day.
We do not apply these standard apartment fees directly to large or duplex homes, commercial premises, outdoor areas, or work across multiple zones. We review photos and the scope and explain the price before starting. Within the same agreed scope, the agreed fee is preserved; if different work arises at the address, we present a new quote first. For water leaks, 3,000 TL is the detection fee only; repair and surface restoration are not included. After detection, we quote any required repair separately and schedule it only with your approval.
When more than one apartment is affected
If backflow is also occurring in neighbouring apartments, we evaluate the possibility of a shared building line issue. The building manager or responsible person may need to prepare access points. Please share information about existing inspection openings and locked common areas before the service visit.
Unblocking a shared building line is not priced as the same job as an independent apartment drain. Before starting work, we explain which line we will work on and state the fee. The conditions under which machine unblocking cannot be completed are set out on the main service page. Camera inspection and toilet removal are not performed on every job and are not done upon customer request; they are carried out when the technician deems them necessary for the unblocking job, and when performed, they are included in the agreed price.
Separate inspection for water seepage and odour
Unblocking a drain alone may not solve every visible water seepage or odour issue. Leak detection may be needed for a fitting leak, and an appropriate inspection may be required for a drain connection odour. Based on the findings, we discuss the separate work and its fee.

Two examples from drain and clean water lines in Zeytinburnu
In Sümer, water backed up from the low bathroom floor drain whenever the toilet and washbasin were used. Because the flexible floor-drain connection was not suitable for machine entry, we cleared the blockage through the washbasin drain and tested the affected drains by running water. Read the full field story (in Turkish).
In Telsiz, a small hot-water leak was not clear during the initial listening check. We applied 10 bar pressure to the line and located the leak point with acoustic listening; after the repair, we verified that the pressure remained steady and completed the agreed tile restoration. Read the full field story (in Turkish). Repeat test and tile selection in Telsiz. (in Turkish)
Water coming from a drain and water escaping from a pressurized line are not investigated with the same method. Rather than only saying “water is coming through” when you contact us, sharing after which fixture use, where, and how often it happens helps us prepare the investigation.
Apartment and shared line questions
If a neighbour’s drain is also blocked, is it definitely the main line?
This information is important for evaluating a shared line, but on its own it is not a definitive diagnosis. We decide by checking the pipe connection and access.
When should we inform the building manager?
If there is a possibility of needing access to a common area or checking more than one apartment, prepare communication while scheduling the service.
