Blocked Drains York

Are you tired of dealing with clogged drains in your York home? Hair is one of the most common causes of sink drain clogs, and it can be frustrating to deal with. At Blocked Drains York, we've seen our fair share of hair-clogged drains, and we're here to provide you with a step-by-step guide on how to clean hair from your sink drain.

Hair can easily get tangled around the drain's pipes, causing a clog that prevents water from flowing freely. This can lead to a buildup of soap, shampoo, and other debris, making the clog even worse. If you don't address the issue promptly, it can cause serious damage to your drainage system.

A drain snake, also known as an auger, is a long, flexible rod that can be inserted into the drain to remove hair and other debris. You can purchase a drain snake at a hardware store or home improvement store. Feed the snake into the drain and rotate it as you push it further into the pipe. This will help break up any hair clogs.

For tougher clogs, try using a combination of 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.

If the above methods don't work, you may need to use a drain cleaner. These products can be found at most hardware stores or home improvement stores. Follow the instructions on the packaging carefully, and be sure to wear gloves and protective eyewear.

To prevent hair clogs from forming in the future, consider the following tips:

• Use a drain screen or filter to catch hair before it goes down the drain.
• Run hot water through the drain after washing your hair to help clear out any loose hair.
• Consider using a drain maintenance product on a regular basis to keep your drains flowing freely.

• If you have a shower or bathtub, consider using a drain guard to catch hair before it goes down the drain.
• Regularly cleaning your drains can help prevent clogs from forming.
