Blocked Drains Harrogate

Are you tired of dealing with a clogged shower drain in your North Yorkshire home? Hair is one of the most common causes of blocked drains, and it can be frustrating to deal with. At Blocked Drains Harrogate, we've put together a step-by-step guide on how to clean out hair from your shower drain.

Before attempting to clean out your shower drain, make sure to turn off the water supply to the shower. This will prevent any more water from flowing into the drain and making the clog worse.

A drain snake, also known as an auger, is a long, flexible rod that can be inserted into the drain to break up any blockages. To use a drain snake:

1. Feed the snake into the drain and rotate it as you push it further into the pipe.
2. When you feel resistance, it means you've reached the clog.
3. Hold the snake in place and twist it to break up the hair and other debris.
4. Remove the snake and pour hot water down the drain to rinse it.

If you don't have a drain snake, you can try using baking soda and vinegar to unclog your shower drain.

1. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain.
2. Follow with 1 cup of vinegar.
3. Let the mixture sit for a few hours or overnight.
4. Pour hot water down the drain to rinse it.

Boiling water can be an effective way to clear out hair from your shower drain.

1. Boil a kettle of water.
2. Pour the boiling water down the drain.
3. Let it sit for a few minutes to allow the hot water to break up the hair.
4. Pour more hot water down the drain to rinse it.

To prevent future clogs in your shower drain, try the following:

• Use a drain screen or filter to catch hair and other debris before they go down the drain.
• Run hot water through the drain on a regular basis to keep it clear.
• Avoid pouring grease and other substances down the drain.
