Blocked Drains Lincoln

Are you tired of dealing with a clogged shower drain in your Lincolnshire home? Hair is one of the most common causes of shower drain blockages, and it can be frustrating to deal with. At Blocked Drains Lincoln, we've put together a step-by-step guide on how to clean hair out of a shower drain.

Hair can accumulate in the drain over time, causing a clog that prevents water from flowing freely. This can lead to slow draining, backups, and even bad smells. To avoid these issues, it's essential to clean your shower drain regularly.

A drain snake, also known as an auger, is a long, flexible rod that can be inserted into the drain to remove hair and other debris. To use a drain snake:

1. Remove any visible hair from the drain cover.
2. Insert the snake into the drain and rotate it as you push it further into the pipe.
3. When you feel resistance, pull the snake back out, and the hair should come with it.

This method is a natural and non-toxic way to clean your shower drain. To try this method:

1. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain.
2. Follow with 1 cup of vinegar.
3. Let the mixture sit for a few hours or overnight.
4. Pour hot water down the drain to rinse.

A plunger can be an effective tool for removing hair from a shower drain. To use a plunger:

1. Remove any visible hair from the drain cover.
2. Apply a small amount of petroleum jelly to the rim of the plunger.
3. Place the plunger over the drain and push down slowly.
4. Hold for a few seconds, then lift up.

To prevent hair clogs in the future, consider the following tips:

• Use a drain screen or filter to catch hair before it goes down the drain.
• Run hot water through the drain after each use to help dissolve any hair that may be accumulating.
• Consider using a product that helps to break down hair and other debris in the drain.
