Blocked Drains York

Are you experiencing a blocked kitchen sink drain in York? Don't worry, it's a common issue that can be resolved with a few simple steps. Before calling a professional drainage service, try these DIY methods to clear the blockage.

A blocked kitchen sink drain is often caused by grease, food particles, and other debris accumulating in the pipes. When these substances build up, they can restrict water flow, leading to a clogged drain.

Before attempting to clear the blockage, turn off the water supply to the sink by locating the shut-off valves under the sink and turning them clockwise. This will prevent any further water from flowing into the sink.

Pour hot water down the drain to help loosen any grease or debris that may be causing the blockage. Be careful not to splash the water, as it may be hot.

Mix equal parts baking soda and vinegar to create a natural cleaning solution. Pour the mixture down the drain and let it sit for a few hours or overnight. The mixture will help break down any tough blockages.

If the baking soda and vinegar solution doesn't work, try using a plunger or drain snake to remove the blockage. A plunger can create suction to loosen any debris, while a drain snake can be inserted into the drain to break up any stubborn blockages.

If none of the above steps work, it's time to call a professional drainage service in York. At Blocked Drains York, our team of experts is equipped to handle even the toughest blockages.
