In this article, we'll provide you with a step-by-step guide on how to clean a blocked kitchen sink, as well as offer our expert services for those tougher blockages.

Kitchen sinks can become blocked due to a variety of reasons, including:

• Grease and food particles accumulating in the pipes
• Hair and soap scum buildup
• Mineral deposits from hard water
• Incorrectly installed or damaged pipes

Before calling in the professionals, try these DIY methods to clear your blocked kitchen sink:

1. Plunger: Use a plunger to create suction and loosen any blockages in the pipe. Make sure the plunger is properly seated over the drain, then push down and pull up quickly to create suction.
2. Baking Soda and Vinegar: Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of vinegar. Let the mixture sit for a few hours or overnight, then pour hot water down the drain to rinse.
3. Hot Water: Pour hot water down the drain to help dissolve any grease or debris that may be causing the blockage.
4. Drain Snake: Use a drain snake (also known as an auger) to remove any blockages that are further down the pipe.

If none of the above methods work, it's time to call in the professionals.
