Blocked Drains Edinburgh

Are you experiencing a blocked sink in East Lothian? Don't worry, we've got you covered. At Blocked Drains Edinburgh, we understand the frustration and inconvenience that comes with a clogged sink. In this article, we'll walk you through the steps to unblock your sink and get your plumbing system flowing smoothly again.

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

• Grease and fat buildup
• Hair and soap scum accumulation
• Food particles and debris
• Mineral deposits and limescale buildup

Before you start, make sure to turn off the water supply to the sink by locating the shut-off valves under the sink and turning them clockwise. This will prevent any further water from flowing into the sink and making the blockage worse.

A plunger is a simple and effective tool for unblocking sinks. Place the plunger over the clogged drain and push down slowly and steadily until you feel resistance. Hold for a few seconds, then lift up. Repeat this process several times until the blockage is cleared.

If the plunger doesn't work, try using baking soda and vinegar to create a natural cleaning solution. 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.

If the above methods don't work, it's time to bring in the big guns. A drain snake, also known as an auger, is a long, flexible rod that can be inserted into the drain to break up any blockages. Feed the snake into the drain and rotate it as you push it further into the pipe.

If none of the above methods work, it's time to call a professional plumber. At Blocked Drains Edinburgh, our team of experienced plumbers are equipped with the latest tools and technology to quickly and efficiently unblock your sink.
