In this article, we'll provide you with a step-by-step guide on how to clean out a sink drain, as well as offer our expert services to help you with any drainage issues you may be facing.

Before we dive into the cleaning process, it's essential to understand what causes a sink drain to become blocked. Some common causes include:

• Grease and oil buildup
• Hair and soap scum accumulation
• Food particles and debris
• Mineral deposits and scaling

1. Use a plunger: Start by using a plunger to create suction and loosen any blockages. Make sure to create a good seal around the drain and plunge slowly and steadily.
2. Use a drain snake: If the plunger doesn't work, try using a drain snake (also known as an auger) to remove any blockages. Feed the snake into the drain and rotate it as you push it further into the pipe.
3. Use baking soda and vinegar: Mix equal parts baking soda and vinegar to create a natural cleaning solution. Pour the mixture down the drain and let it sit for a few hours before rinsing with hot water.
4. Use a drain cleaner: If the above methods don't work, you can try using a chemical drain cleaner. However, be careful when using these products, as they can damage your pipes and skin.
