Are you tired of dealing with a clogged sink in your East Lothian home? Look no further than this simple and effective method using baking soda. At Blocked Drains Edinburgh, we've seen our fair share of blocked sinks, and we're here to guide you through the process of clearing one using this natural and non-toxic method.

A blocked sink can be a real nuisance, especially in the kitchen where water is constantly flowing. Hair, grease, and food particles can all contribute to a blockage, leaving you with a sink that won't drain. But before you call in the professionals, try this simple method to clear the blockage.

This method is a classic, and for good reason. It's easy, effective, and won't damage your pipes. Here's what you'll need:

• One cup of baking soda
• One cup of vinegar
• Hot water

Pour one cup of baking soda down the drain, making sure to cover the entire area. This will help to break down any blockages and neutralize any odors.

Next, pour one cup of vinegar down the drain. The acid in the vinegar will react with the baking soda, creating a fizzing action that will help to break down any blockages.

Let the mixture sit in the drain for a few hours or overnight. This will allow the baking soda and vinegar to work their magic and break down any tough blockages.

Finally, rinse the drain with hot water to clear out any remaining debris. If the blockage is particularly stubborn, you may need to repeat the process a few times before the sink drains freely.

The combination of baking soda and vinegar is a powerful one. The baking soda acts as a natural abrasive, helping to break down any tough blockages, while the vinegar helps to dissolve any grease or oil that may be contributing to the clog. Together, they create a powerful cleaning agent that can help to clear even the toughest blockages.

To prevent future blockages, make sure to clean your sink regularly and avoid pouring grease or oil down the drain. You can also use a drain screen or filter to catch any hair or debris before it goes down the drain.

Clearing a blocked sink with baking soda is a simple and effective method that can save you time and money.
