Blocked Drains Lincoln

Are you experiencing a blocked drain in your Lincolnshire home? Before calling a professional drainage service like Blocked Drains Lincoln, you can try a simple and effective method using bicarb soda (baking soda) to unblock your drain. This eco-friendly and non-toxic solution is a great alternative to harsh chemicals.

• 1 cup of bicarb soda (baking soda)
• 1 kettle of boiling water
• 1 cup of white vinegar
• Optional: 1 tablespoon of salt

1. Pour Bicarb Soda Down the Drain: Start by pouring 1 cup of bicarb soda down the blocked drain. This will help break down any hair or debris that may be causing the blockage.
2. Follow with Boiling Water: Next, pour a kettle of boiling water down the drain to help dissolve the bicarb soda and loosen any blockages.
3. Add Vinegar: After pouring the boiling water, add 1 cup of white vinegar down the drain. The mixture of bicarb soda and vinegar will create a chemical reaction that will help break down any tough blockages.
4. Optional: Add Salt: If you want to add an extra layer of cleaning power, you can add 1 tablespoon of salt to the mixture. Salt can help break down any grease or grime that may be causing the blockage.
5. Let it Sit: Allow the mixture to sit in the drain for a few hours or overnight. This will give the bicarb soda and vinegar time to work their magic and break down any blockages.
6. Flush with Hot Water: After the mixture has sat for a few hours or overnight, flush the drain with hot water to rinse away any remaining debris.

• Make sure to use a kettle of boiling water to help dissolve the bicarb soda and loosen any blockages.
• If you have a severe blockage, you may need to repeat the process a few times before the drain is fully unblocked.
• If you're unsure about the cause of the blockage or if the blockage persists after trying this method, it's best to call a professional drainage service like Blocked Drains Lincoln to diagnose and fix the issue.
