Blocked Drains Lincoln

Is your bathroom sink drain emitting a foul smell that's making your entire bathroom unbearable? Don't worry, we've got a solution for you. At Blocked Drains Lincoln, we've helped numerous homeowners in Lincolnshire tackle smelly sink drains and restore their bathroom's freshness.

The smell from your bathroom sink drain is often caused by the buildup of matter, such as hair, soap scum, and grease, in the drain pipes. When these substances accumulate, they can create an ideal environment for bacteria to thrive, resulting in a foul odour. Additionally, food particles from the kitchen sink can also contribute to the smell, especially if they're not properly disposed of.

The U-bend, also known as the P-trap, is a curved pipe under your sink that helps to prevent sewer gases from entering your bathroom. However, it can also be a breeding ground for bacteria and odour-causing substances. When the U-bend becomes clogged or dirty, it can cause the smell to emanate from your sink drain.

Fortunately, cleaning a smelly bathroom sink drain is a relatively simple process that can be done with a few household items. Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Baking Soda and Vinegar Solution: Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of vinegar. Let the mixture sit for a few hours or overnight, allowing it to break down any blockages and neutralize the odour.
2. Hot Water: Pour hot water down the drain to rinse away any remaining baking soda and vinegar.
3. Drain Cleaner: If the smell persists, you can use a drain cleaner specifically designed for sink drains. Follow the instructions on the packaging carefully.
4. Regular Maintenance: To prevent future odours, make sure to regularly clean your sink drain with baking soda and vinegar, and avoid pouring grease and food particles down the drain.
