Blocked Drains York

Are you experiencing a blocked shower drain in your York home? Don't worry, we at Blocked Drains York are here to help. One of the most effective and eco-friendly methods to unblock a shower drain is by using baking soda. This method is not only cost-effective but also a safer alternative to harsh chemicals.

Baking soda is a natural and non-corrosive substance that can help break down the clog in your shower drain. It's also a great alternative to using harsh chemicals that can damage your pipes or harm the environment.

Blocked shower drains are often caused by a buildup of hair, soap scum, and other debris. When these substances accumulate, they can create a clog that prevents water from flowing freely down the drain.

To unblock your shower drain using baking soda, follow these simple steps:

1. Pour Baking Soda Down the Drain: Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the shower drain.
2. Follow with Hot Water: Pour 2 cups of hot water down the drain to help the baking soda flow down and reach the clog.
3. Let it Sit: Allow the baking soda to sit in the drain for 30 minutes to an hour. This will give it time to work its way through the clog.
4. Pour Boiling Water: Pour 2 cups of boiling water down the drain to help dissolve the clog.
5. Check the Drain: Check the drain to see if the water is flowing freely. If it's still blocked, you may need to repeat the process.

• To prevent clogs from forming in the future, consider using a drain screen or filter to catch hair and other debris before they go down the drain.
• Don't use harsh chemicals to unblock your shower drain, as they can damage your pipes and harm the environment.
