DIY Methods to Unblock a Blocked Sink Drain
If you're experiencing a blocked sink drain, there are a few DIY methods you can try before calling in the professionals:
- Plunger: A plunger is a simple and effective tool for clearing blockages in your sink drain. Make sure the plunger is properly seated over the drain, then push down and pull up quickly to create suction.
- Baking Soda and Vinegar: Mix equal parts baking soda and vinegar to create a natural cleaning solution. Pour the mixture down the drain, let it sit for a few hours, then rinse with hot water.
- Hot Water: Pouring hot water down the drain can help dissolve grease and other debris that may be causing the blockage.
