Blocked Drains Edinburgh

As a homeowner in East Lothian, it's essential to prioritize the maintenance of your sink drains to prevent clogs and ensure a smooth flow of water. At Blocked Drains Edinburgh, we've seen our fair share of blocked drains in the region, and we're here to provide you with expert advice on how often to clean your sink drains.

Your sink drains are used daily, and over time, they can accumulate grease, hair, and other debris that can cause blockages. Regular cleaning can help prevent these issues and maintain the overall health of your drainage system.

We recommend cleaning your sink drains every 1-2 months, depending on usage. If you have a large family or use your kitchen sink frequently, you may need to clean your drains more often. Here are some signs that indicate your sink drains need cleaning:

• Slow draining water
• Gurgling sounds from the drain
• Visible hair or debris accumulation

Before calling a professional, you can try some DIY drain cleaning methods:

• Use a plunger to create suction and remove blockages
• Pour baking soda and vinegar down the drain to break down grease and debris
• Use a drain snake to remove hair and other obstructions

If you're not comfortable with DIY cleaning or if your drains are severely blocked, it's best to call a professional. At Blocked Drains Edinburgh, our experienced technicians use high-pressure water jetting and other advanced techniques to clean your drains efficiently.

To minimize the need for frequent cleaning, follow these tips:

• Be mindful of what you put down your drains, avoiding grease, hair, and other debris
• Use a drain screen or filter to catch hair and other particles
• Run hot water through your drains regularly to help dissolve grease and debris
