In this article, we'll provide a step-by-step guide on how to clean a wet room drain in Lincolnshire.

A clogged or dirty wet room drain can lead to unpleasant odors, slow water drainage, and even water damage. Regular cleaning helps to:

• A suitable cleaner (more on this below)
• A drain cleaning tool or plumber's snake
• A pair of gloves
• A bucket or container
• Warm water

When it comes to cleaning your wet room drain, it's essential to use a suitable cleaner that won't damage the drain or surrounding surfaces. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners, as they can damage the grout or floor. Instead, opt for a gentle, non-corrosive cleaner specifically designed for wet room drains.

1. Prepare the area: Before you start cleaning, ensure the wet room floor is dry and clear of any debris or obstructions.
2. Remove any visible blockages: Use a drain cleaning tool or plumber's snake to remove any visible hair or debris from the drain.
3. Apply the cleaner: Pour the cleaner down the drain, following the manufacturer's instructions.
4. Let it sit: Allow the cleaner to sit in the drain for the recommended time, usually 15-30 minutes.
5. Rinse with warm water: Use warm water to rinse the cleaner out of the drain.
6. Check the drain: Use a bucket or container to check the water flow and ensure the drain is clear.

• Regularly clean the grout: Use a gentle grout cleaner to remove dirt and grime from the grout lines.
• Use a drain screen: Consider installing a drain screen to catch hair and debris before they enter the drain.
• Keep the wet room floor clean: Regularly clean the wet room floor to prevent dirt and debris from entering the drain.
