Blocked Drains Harrogate

Are you experiencing a blocked sink drain in your North Yorkshire home or business? At Blocked Drains Harrogate, we understand the frustration and inconvenience that comes with a clogged sink. In this article, we will provide you with a step-by-step guide on how to fix a blocked sink drain and offer our expert drainage services to help you resolve the issue.

Before we dive into the solution, it's essential to know how the drainage system works. The sink drain is connected to a network of pipes that carry wastewater away from your property and into the sewer system. When a blockage occurs, it can cause water to back up into the sink, creating a messy and unpleasant problem.

To fix a blocked sink drain, you need to know where the blockage is located. Check the sink drain for any visible signs of blockage, such as hair, soap scum, or food particles. If you can't see the blockage, it may be further down the drain pipe.

1. Turn off the water supply: Before you start, turn off the water supply to the sink by locating the shut-off valves under the sink and turning them clockwise.
2. Remove any visible blockages: Use a pair of needle-nose pliers or a drain snake to remove any visible blockages from the sink drain.
3. Use a plunger: Create a seal around the sink drain with a plunger and push down slowly and steadily to create suction. Repeat this process several times to loosen the blockage.
4. Use baking soda and vinegar: Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of vinegar. Let the mixture sit for a few hours or overnight, then pour hot water down the drain to rinse.
5. Use a drain auger: If the blockage is further down the drain pipe, use a drain auger (also known as a drain snake) to break up the blockage.
