Our team of expert drainage specialists is here to provide you with a step-by-step guide on how to fix a blocked sink pipe in Lincolnshire.

Before we dive into the solution, it's essential to understand why sink pipes get blocked in the first place. In Lincolnshire, particularly in the East, the water table is relatively high, which can cause soil and debris to enter the drainage system. Additionally, the buildup of grease, hair, and soap scum can also contribute to a blocked sink pipe.

If you notice any of the following signs, it's likely that your sink pipe is blocked:

• Water draining slowly or not at all
• Gurgling or bubbling sounds from the sink
• Bad smells emanating from the sink
• Water overflowing from the sink

Fortunately, fixing a blocked sink pipe is a relatively straightforward process that can be done with the right tools and expertise. Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Turn off the water supply: Before attempting to fix the blockage, turn off the water supply to the sink by locating the shut-off valves under the sink and turning them clockwise.
2. Use a plunger: A plunger is a simple and effective tool for clearing blockages in sink pipes. Place the plunger over the clogged drain and push down slowly and steadily until you feel resistance. Hold for a few seconds and then lift up. Repeat this process several times until the blockage is cleared.
3. Use a drain snake: If the plunger doesn't work, you can try using a drain snake (also known as an auger) to remove the blockage. Feed the snake into the drain and rotate it as you push it further into the pipe.
4. Use baking soda and vinegar: For a more natural approach, try using baking soda and vinegar to clear 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 before rinsing with hot water.

If none of the above methods work, it's likely that the blockage is more severe and requires the expertise of a professional drainage specialist.
