Blocked Drains Lincoln

Are you dealing with a clogged sink in your bathroom, causing water to back up and creating a mess? Don't worry, we've got you covered. At Blocked Drains Lincoln, we understand the frustration and inconvenience that comes with a blocked sink. In this article, we'll walk you through the steps to clear a blocked sink in your bathroom, and provide you with expert advice on how to prevent future blockages.

A blocked sink can be caused by a variety of factors, including hair, soap scum, and grease buildup in the drain. If left unaddressed, a clogged sink can lead to more serious issues, such as sewage backups and water damage. As a homeowner in Lincolnshire, it's essential to address the problem promptly to avoid any further complications.

Before attempting to clear the blockage, turn off the water supply to the sink by locating the shut-off valves under the sink and turning them clockwise. This will prevent any further water from flowing into the sink and making the problem worse.

Use a pair of gloves and a wire coat hanger to remove any visible debris and hair from the sink drain. You can also use a drain screen or filter to catch any loose hair and debris before they go down the drain.

A plunger is a simple and effective tool for clearing blockages in sinks. Place the plunger over the sink drain and push down slowly and steadily until you feel resistance. Hold the plunger in place for a few seconds, then lift up. Repeat this process several times until the blockage is cleared.

If the plunger doesn't work, try using a mixture of baking soda and vinegar to dissolve the blockage. 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, then pour hot water down the drain to rinse.

If none of the above steps work, it's time to call a professional.
