As a homeowner in Lincolnshire, maintaining a clean and functional sink drain is essential for a hygienic and odor-free kitchen. At Blocked Drains Lincoln, we understand the importance of regular drain cleaning and maintenance. In this article, we will provide you with a step-by-step guide on how to clean inside of your sink drain, helping you to avoid costly repairs and keep your kitchen sink running smoothly.

A clogged or dirty sink drain can lead to unpleasant odors, slow draining water, and even cause damage to your pipes. Regular cleaning can help prevent these issues and ensure your sink drain functions properly.

• Baking soda
• White vinegar
• Hot water
• A drain cleaner or plumber's snake (optional)
• A pipe brush (optional)

Before you start cleaning your sink drain, remove any large debris or food particles that may be blocking the drain. Use a drain screen or a piece of mesh to catch any food particles that may fall into the drain.

Pour 1/2 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of hot water. The baking soda will help break down any grease or debris that may be causing the clog.

Pour 1 cup of white vinegar down the drain, followed by 1 cup of hot water. The acid in the vinegar will help break down any tough debris and help dissolve any mineral deposits.

Let the mixture sit in the drain for 2-3 hours or overnight. This will allow the baking soda and vinegar to work together to break down any tough debris.

If the clog is still present after the mixture has sat for a few hours, you may need to use a drain cleaner or plumber's snake to remove the blockage. Be careful not to scratch the pipes with the snake.

Once you have removed the clog, rinse the drain with hot water to remove any remaining debris.
