Blocked Drains Lincoln

Are you struggling with a clogged shower drain in your Lincolnshire home, but the drain cover or grate can't be removed? Don't worry, we've got you covered. At Blocked Drains Lincoln, we've encountered numerous cases of stubborn shower drains, and we're here to provide you with a step-by-step guide on how to clean a shower drain that can't be removed.

Before we dive into the cleaning process, it's essential to understand why your shower drain might be clogged. Hair, soap scum, and grease can accumulate in the drain, causing a blockage. If you notice water draining slowly or not at all, it's likely that your shower drain needs attention.

To clean a shower drain that can't be removed, you'll need the following supplies:

• A drain snake or plumber's auger
• Baking soda
• Vinegar
• Hot water
• A plunger (optional)

Insert the drain snake or plumber's auger into the shower drain and rotate it as you push it further into the pipe. This will help break up any blockages or debris. If you feel resistance, it's likely that you've encountered the clog.

Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the shower drain, followed by 1 cup of vinegar. Let the mixture sit for a few hours or overnight, allowing it to break down any tough blockages.

Pour hot water down the shower drain to rinse away any remaining debris. If the water drains freely, you've successfully cleaned your shower drain.

If the above steps don't work, you may need to consider high-pressure water jetting. This involves using a specialized machine to blast away any blockages in the drain. At Blocked Drains Lincoln, we offer high-pressure water jetting services to our clients in Lincolnshire.

To avoid future blockages, consider the following:

• Use a drain screen or filter to catch hair and other debris before they enter the drain.
• Run hot water through the drain regularly to clear any soap scum or grease.
• Avoid using harsh chemicals, as they can damage your pipes and fittings.

The cost of cleaning a shower drain that can't be removed can vary depending on the severity of the blockage and the method used. At Blocked Drains Lincoln, we offer competitive pricing and solutions tailored to your needs.

If you're experiencing recurring blockages or issues with your shower drain, it may be worth considering a drainage survey. Our team at Blocked Drains Lincoln can conduct a CCTV survey to identify any underlying issues and provide recommendations for repair or maintenance.
