Blocked Drains Lincoln

Blocked sinks can be a frustrating and messy problem, especially when it comes to dealing with stagnant water and potential health hazards. If you're a homeowner or business owner in Lincolnshire, it's essential to know how to clear a blocked sink efficiently and effectively. At Blocked Drains Lincoln, we offer expert drainage services to help you resolve the issue quickly and safely.

Before attempting to clear the blockage, it's crucial to identify the cause of the problem. Common culprits include food waste, grease, hair, and soap scum, which can accumulate in the drain pipe and restrict water flow. In some cases, the blockage may be more severe, requiring professional assistance from a drainage expert.

1. Turn off the water supply: Locate the shut-off valves under the sink and turn them clockwise to prevent further water flow.
2. Remove any visible blockages: Check the sink drain for any visible debris, such as food waste or hair, and remove it using a pair of gloves or a drain screen.
3. Use a plunger: Create a tight seal around the drain and plunge the sink several times to create suction. This may dislodge the blockage and restore water flow.
4. Use baking soda and vinegar: Mix equal parts baking soda and vinegar to create a natural cleaning solution. Pour the mixture down the drain and let it sit for a few hours before rinsing with hot water.
5. Use a drain snake: If the blockage is further down the pipe, use a drain snake (also known as an auger) to break up the clog.

If you've tried the above steps and the blockage persists, it's time to call a professional drainage service like Blocked Drains Lincoln. Our team of experts is equipped with the latest technology and equipment to diagnose and resolve even the most complex drainage issues.
