Blocked Drains Edinburgh

Are you tired of dealing with a slow-moving or blocked bathroom drain in your East Lothian home? Before calling a professional plumber, you may want to try a simple and cost-effective solution using baking soda and vinegar. This natural method can help unclog your drain and leave your bathroom sink smelling fresh.

Clogged drains can be a real nuisance, causing water to back up into your sink or shower. In severe cases, a blocked drain can lead to costly repairs and even damage to your plumbing system. The good news is that many clogs can be prevented or cleared using a combination of baking soda and vinegar.

To clean your bathroom drain, you will need:

• 1 cup of baking soda
• 1 cup of vinegar
• Hot water
  Instructions:

1. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain.
2. Follow with 1 cup of vinegar. You may hear a fizzing sound as the two ingredients react.
3. Let the mixture sit in the drain for 2-3 hours or overnight.
4. Pour hot water down the drain to rinse.

Baking soda is a natural abrasive that can help break down any blockages in your drain. Vinegar, on the other hand, is a natural acid that can help dissolve any grease or debris that may be causing the clog. When combined, the two ingredients create a chemical reaction that can help unclog your drain.

• For tougher clogs, you can use a plunger or plumbing snake to help dislodge any blockages.
• To prevent clogs from forming in the future, consider using a drain screen or filter to catch any hair or debris before it goes down the drain.
• If you have a severe blockage or are unsure of how to clean your drain, it's always best to consult a professional plumber.
