Blocked Drains Lincoln

Are you tired of dealing with clogged drains in your Lincolnshire home? Look no further than a simple and effective solution: baking soda. This natural cleaner is a great alternative to harsh chemicals and can help keep your drains flowing freely.

Baking soda, also known as sodium bicarbonate, is a natural abrasive that can help break down grease and other debris that can clog your drains. When combined with hot water, baking soda can help dissolve and remove blockages, leaving your drains clean and clear.

To use baking soda to clean your drains, follow these simple steps:

1. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain: This will help to break down any grease or debris that may be causing the blockage.
2. Follow with 2 cups of hot water: The hot water will help to activate the baking soda and allow it to penetrate deep into the drain.
3. Let it sit: Allow the baking soda and water to sit in the drain for 30 minutes to an hour. This will give the baking soda time to work its magic.
4. Flush with boiling water: After the baking soda has sat for the desired amount of time, flush the drain with boiling water to rinse away any remaining debris.
5. Optional: Add vinegar: If you want to give your drain an extra cleaning boost, you can add 1 cup of white vinegar to the drain after the baking soda. The acid in the vinegar will help to break down any remaining grease and debris.

• Use this method regularly: To keep your drains clean and clear, try using this method every 1-2 months.
• Be careful with boiling water: When flushing the drain with boiling water, be careful not to splash any water on your skin or surrounding surfaces.
• Don't use this method on severe blockages: If you have a severe blockage, it's best to call a professional drain cleaning service, such as Blocked Drains Lincoln, to avoid causing further damage to your pipes.
