Short answer
Gökkaya Hafriyat clears blocked sinks, drains and pipes in Famagusta (Gazimağusa) and İskele, North Cyprus. Blockages usually come from grease, hair, soap residue, foreign objects or roots entering an outside line. The clearing method is chosen by the location and cause of the blockage.
What are the signs of a blockage?
- A sink or shower draining slowly
- Gurgling sounds from drains
- Water coming up in one drain while another is running
- Bad smells or an overflowing manhole outside
What can you do before calling?
- Reduce water use and stop running water into the blocked drain.
- If there is an overflow, stay away from electrical appliances.
- Check whether more than one drain is affected.
- Don’t keep adding strong chemicals: they can harm pipes and the people clearing them.
How can blockages be prevented?
- Don’t pour cooking oil down the drain.
- Use sink and shower strainers.
- Don’t flush wet wipes or hygiene products.
- Check outside manholes and lines for tree roots.

Frequently asked questions
- If one drain is blocked, where is the problem?
- It is usually close to that drain. If several drains are affected at once, check the main or outside line.
- Should I use a chemical drain cleaner?
- It may not be a lasting fix and can damage old pipes. If you have used one, always tell the crew which product it was.
- Could my septic tank be causing the blockage?
- Yes. A full tank can cause slow drains and smells. If all drains are affected, the septic tank should also be checked.
