How to Unblock a Sink
A blocked sink is usually caused by a build up of grime and dirt over time, which means this is normally your responsibility to fix if there's an issue
How do I unblock a sink?
You can buy a chemical unblocker product at the supermarket, which will have instructions for use on the back, or use a plunger. Alternatively, you can follow the simple steps below to find out how to unclog your drain with things you might already have in your home:
Step One
Make sure your sink is dry.
Step Two
Pour at least one whole cup of baking soda down the drain followed by two cups of boiling water.
Step Three
Wait a few minutes.
Step Four
Add on more cup of baking soda and a cup of white vinegar.
Step Five
Plug the drain if you can. If you hear it bubbling and fizzing, that means its working.
Step Six
Once the bubbles have all gone, you can wash it away with another two cups of boiling water.
Step Seven
Try to keep your sink clean and dont wash food or fat down the plughole (this will stop it getting blocked again).
Step Eight
You could also repeat the above steps once a month to keep everything running smoothly.
