Ramadan Drain CleaningBuilding and complex maintenance in Abbasiya
Building and complex maintenance in Abbasiya means a complete drainage network connecting multiple flats and shared facilities. Abbasiya is a residential area in Farwaniya with apartment blocks and low-rise buildings, each needing its own main and branch lines, sometimes with floor traps on one level or several.
Signs across a block
Where a block showsits faults.
A block does not complain from one place. These are the spots that show it first.
01
One flat complains and the rest are fine
When one flat has water coming back and the rest drain normally, the fault sits in its own branch or where that branch joins the shared run, not in the shared run itself.
02
Water standing in the car park
A car park gully sits below street level, so any narrowing shows at once as a pool on the concrete. The cause we see most is grit and dust carried down by car washing and settled in the pot.
03
The tank water changes in summer
A roof tank sitting in the sun heats up, the water standing in it changes in taste and smell, and sediment can settle at the bottom. Residents complain about the water rather than the drains, and the cause is above them.
This area
What setsthis area apart
Buildings in Abbasiya are usually five to seven storeys, the main line drops from a roof stack and passes each floor until it exits the ground level, with a round inspection chamber in the front or rear yard. Floor traps in flats, kitchens and bathrooms all feed into that stack, so a blockage in the stack itself backs water up into multiple flats at once. We open the ground chamber first and work upwards with the rods.
Abbasiya sits in Farwaniya governorate, a residential area with apartment blocks each on a single central drainage stack.
Drainage stacks in Abbasiya buildings run vertically from roof to ground chamber over nine or ten metres.
The work in short
What we cover ina block.
Service
Water and drainage network upkeep for a whole building
Where it applies
Residential blocks, complexes and buildings with several entrances
The points
Inspection chambers, manholes, car park gullies, roof tanks and pumps
Method
Chambers opened in order, drain rods, and a tanker when suction is needed
Coverage
All six governorates and the areas inside them
The round
From the roofto the car park.
We start at the top and work down, because what happens above shows up below.
We start at the tank and pump
We open the tank, look at the water and any sediment in the base, and watch the pump while it runs, because weak supply in the flats usually starts here and not at the tap.
We move to the vertical stacks
The stack collecting the bathrooms of the flats above one another reads from the access points and the landing gullies. We listen for water falling at its normal pace, or hesitating before it goes.
We open the yard chambers in order
We open from the chamber nearest the building and move towards the outlet, reading the level in each channel. A full chamber followed by an empty one puts the stoppage exactly between the two.
We finish at the car park
We lift the car park gully grating, clear what has settled in the pot, and check the outlet still sits above the standing water line, because that seal is what keeps odour out of the car park.
Common questions
Questions about Building and complex maintenance in Abbasiya
That is the job we do. We open the ground chamber and use rods working upward to break the blockage inside the stack, and if rods do not clear it we bring the tanker.
The ground chamber is the main inspection point under the ground near the building, while floor traps in flats are small openings in the slab that collect water and feed it to the stack. We work on both but the chamber comes first.
