Blocked Drains Lincoln

Are you tired of dealing with clogged drains in your Lincolnshire home? Hair is one of the most common culprits behind blocked drains, and it can be a real nuisance. Whether you're in Ingoldmells, Langtoft, or anywhere within Lincolnshire, understanding how to clean hair out of your drains can save you time, money, and stress.

Hair can accumulate in your drains over time, combining with soap scum, grease, and other debris to create a stubborn clog. When you shower or bathe, hair can go down the drain, and if it's not properly cleaned, it can cause problems with your drainage system. In severe cases, hair clogs can even lead to sewer backups and costly repairs.

Fortunately, cleaning hair out of your drains is a relatively simple process that you can do yourself. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you get started:

1. Use a drain screen: One of the easiest ways to prevent hair from going down your drain is to use a drain screen. These screens catch hair and other debris before they can enter your pipes.
2. Get a drain cleaner: If you already have a hair clog, you can use a drain cleaner to dissolve the blockage. There are many different types of drain cleaners available, including chemical-based products and natural alternatives like baking soda and vinegar.
3. Use baking soda and vinegar: For a more eco-friendly approach, try using baking soda and vinegar to clean your drains. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down your drain, followed by 1 cup of vinegar. Let the mixture sit for a few hours, then pour hot water down the drain to rinse.
4. Use a plunger: If the clog is further down the drain, you may need to use a plunger to dislodge it. Make sure to create a good seal around the drain, then push down and pull up quickly to create suction.
5. Call a professional: If none of the above methods work, it may be time to call a professional drainage service. At Blocked Drains Lincoln, we offer expert drain cleaning and maintenance services to homeowners throughout Lincolnshire.
