Blocked Drains Harrogate

Are you tired of dealing with clogged bath drains in your North Yorkshire home? Hair is a common culprit behind these pesky clogs, but fortunately, there are several methods to clean hair from your bath drain. In this article, we'll walk you through the steps to remove hair from your bath drain and prevent future clogs.

Hair can accumulate in your bath drain over time, causing water to back up and creating an unpleasant experience. The stopper or strainer in your bathtub can catch some hair, but it's not always effective. When hair accumulates in the drain, it can cause a clog that requires professional attention.

1. Remove any visible hair from the drain using your hands or a pair of tweezers.
2. Place the plunger over the drain, making sure the rubber edge is seated snugly.
3. Plunge the drain several times to create suction. This can help dislodge any hair that's accumulated in the drain.
4. Check if the water drains freely. If not, repeat the process a few more times.

1. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain.
2. Follow with 1 cup of vinegar. The mixture will fizz and help break down any hair in the drain.
3. Let the mixture sit for a few hours or overnight.
4. Pour hot water down the drain to rinse it.
