Blocked Drains Lincoln

Are you tired of dealing with a slow-draining shower in your Lincolnshire home? Hair is one of the most common causes of clogged shower drains, and it can be frustrating to deal with. At Blocked Drains Lincoln, we've put together a step-by-step guide on how to unblock a shower drain full of hair.

Hair can accumulate in your shower drain over time, causing a blockage that prevents water from flowing freely. This can lead to a range of problems, including slow draining, overflowing, and even sewer backups. To avoid these issues, it's essential to address the blockage as soon as possible.

One of the simplest ways to unblock a shower drain is to use a plunger. A plunger creates suction that can help dislodge hair and other debris that's causing the blockage. To use a plunger effectively:

1. Remove any visible hair or debris from the drain cover.
2. Apply a small amount of soap or lubricant to the plunger to help it create a good seal.
3. Place the plunger over the drain and push down slowly and steadily.
4. Hold the plunger in place for a few seconds, then lift up.
5. Repeat the process several times to help loosen the blockage.

If the plunger doesn't work, you may need to use a drain unblocker to clear the hair from your shower drain. There are several types of drain unblockers available, including chemical-based products and natural alternatives. To use a drain unblocker:

1. Follow the instructions on the packaging to mix the product with hot water.
2. Pour the solution down the drain and let it sit for a few minutes.
3. Rinse the drain with hot water to help clear the blockage.

To prevent hair from clogging your shower drain in the future, consider the following tips:

• Use a drain screen or filter to catch hair and other debris before it goes down the drain.
• Run hot water through the drain on a regular basis to help clear any blockages.
• Avoid using soap or shampoo that can contribute to blockages.
• Consider using a natural drain cleaner on a regular basis to help maintain your drains.
