Blocked Drains Edinburgh

Are you tired of dealing with a clogged sink drain in your East Lothian home? Look no further. At Blocked Drains Edinburgh, we're here to provide you with a simple and effective solution using bicarbonate of soda. This natural and non-toxic method is perfect for those who want to avoid harsh chemicals and keep their kitchen and bathroom drains flowing freely.

Bicarbonate of soda, also known as baking soda, is a natural cleaner that's commonly found in most households. It's a gentle yet effective way to break down grease, hair, and other debris that can clog your sink drain. Plus, it's environmentally friendly and won't harm your pipes or the community's water supply.

Cleaning your sink drain with bicarbonate of soda is a straightforward process that requires just a few simple steps:

1. Pour 1/2 cup of bicarbonate of soda down the drain: This will help to break down any blockages and neutralize any odors.
2. Follow with 1 cup of hot water: Pouring hot water down the drain will help to dissolve the bicarbonate of soda and allow it to penetrate deeper into the pipes.
3. Let it sit: Allow the mixture to sit in the drain for 30 minutes to an hour. This will give the bicarbonate of soda time to work its magic and break down any tough blockages.
4. Pour 1 cup of vinegar down the drain: Vinegar is a natural acid that will help to break down any remaining debris and leave your drain smelling fresh and clean.
5. Let it sit again: Allow the vinegar to sit in the drain for another 30 minutes to an hour.
6. Pour hot water down the drain to rinse: Finally, pour hot water down the drain to rinse away any remaining debris and bicarbonate of soda.

• If you have a particularly stubborn blockage, you may need to use a drain snake to help break it up before using the bicarbonate of soda method.
• To avoid clogging your sink drain in the future, be sure to run hot water through it on a regular basis to help dissolve any grease or debris.
