Cesspit cleaning
Ramadan Drain CleaningCesspit and manhole cleaning in Sharq
Cesspit and manhole cleaning in Sharq differs from newer flats because Sharq has older apartment buildings, mixed residential units and commercial shops. Pumping clears water, but the walls and base need scraping with rods to remove the stuck layer.
Signs it needs it
When pumping aloneis not enough.
These are the signs that a chamber needs washing rather than another level drop.
01
The smell outlasts the pumping
The level came down and the lines run again, but the smell around the cover stays. What produces it is the layer stuck to the walls, and that does not come out with the water because it neither floats nor pours.
02
A hard crust on the surface
Lifting the cover to find a bound layer sitting on the water instead of a liquid surface says the chamber has gone a long time without cleaning, and that pumping alone will pass under it and leave it there.
03
The pipe mouth looks narrowed
The inlet or outlet mouth reads smaller than its real bore, or its rim is coated with deposit. A narrowed mouth means the chamber fills again quickly however much is pumped out of it.
This area
What setsthis area apart
Sharq is a relatively older residential district with buildings dating decades back, alongside hotels and a central tower. Cesspits here are deep and sit under the street or passages between buildings, with the main line collecting drainage from several units. Older buildings have tighter internal lines and pits with years of accumulation inside, so they need deep cleaning, not quick pumping.
Sharq lies in Kuwait governorate, an older residential district with apartment buildings and hotels near the Gulf.
Most residential buildings in Sharq date from the 1960s and 1970s, and their cesspits sit at five metres depth or deeper.

How we clean
From the cover tothe wash down.
Four steps, and the order matters so nothing we lifted goes back down.
We open and skim the top
The round cover comes off and the surface layer is taken first, because letting it drop as the level falls would lodge it in a pipe mouth and make a new problem.
We take the level to the base
The level comes down in stages until the base and the channel show. Nothing is cleaned while water still covers the wall, because you cannot tell what is stuck from what is merely wet.
We scrape walls and benching
The bound layer is scraped off the wall and off the benching around the channel, then washed down from the top so everything released runs straight into the channel.
We check the mouths and close
Inlet and outlet are checked clean at their full bore, then water is run from inside the house and watched crossing the channel before the cover goes back on.
