Blocked Drains Lincoln

Are you tired of dealing with clogged drains in your Lincolnshire home? Before calling a professional drainage service like Blocked Drains Lincoln, you can try a simple and eco-friendly method to unblock your drains using bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) and vinegar.

The combination of baking soda and vinegar creates a chemical reaction that can help break down and dissolve blockages in your drain. The baking soda acts as a mild abrasive, while the acid in the vinegar helps to break down grease and other substances that may be causing the blockage.

To unblock your drain using bicarb and vinegar, follow these steps:

1. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain. This will help to break down any blockages and create a surface for the vinegar to react with.
2. Follow with 1 cup of vinegar. The acid in the vinegar will react with the baking soda to create a fizzing reaction that will help to break down any blockages.
3. Let the mixture sit for a few hours or overnight. This will allow the reaction to take place and help to break down any tough blockages.
4. Pour boiling water down the drain to rinse away any remaining blockages and debris.
5. Flush the drain with hot water to test if the blockage has been cleared.

• Before attempting to unblock your drain, make sure to remove any visible blockages or debris from the drain cover or grate.
• If you have a severe blockage or if the blockage persists after trying this method, it may be best to call a professional drainage service like Blocked Drains Lincoln to avoid causing further damage to your pipes.
• To prevent blockages from forming in the future, consider using a drain maintenance product or running hot water through your drains on a regular basis to help dissolve any grease or debris.
