How to Clean Out Kitchen Sink Drain in East Lothian

As a homeowner or business owner in East Lothian, a clogged kitchen sink drain can be a frustrating and messy problem. At Blocked Drains Edinburgh, our team of experienced plumbers based in Edinburgh are here to provide you with a full range of drainage services, including kitchen sink drain cleaning.

Why is my kitchen sink drain blocked?

There are several reasons why your kitchen sink drain may be blocked. Grease, food particles, and soap scum can all cause a blockage in your drain, leading to slow draining water or a complete blockage. In commercial kitchens, the problem can be even more severe, with a blocked drain causing disruptions to business operations.

How to clean out a kitchen sink drain

Before calling in a professional plumber, there are a few steps you can take to try and clear the blockage:

  1. Use a plunger: A plunger can be an effective way to clear a blockage in your kitchen sink drain. Make sure the plunger is properly seated over the drain, then push down and pull up quickly to create suction.
  2. Use 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, then pour hot water down the drain to rinse.
  3. Use a drain snake: A drain snake is a long, flexible rod that can be inserted into the drain to break up any blockages.

When to call a professional plumber

If none of the above methods work, it's time to call in a professional plumber. At Blocked Drains Edinburgh, our team of experienced plumbers are equipped with the latest equipment and technology to quickly and effectively clear any blockage in your kitchen sink drain.
