SINK UNBLOCKER
2BLOCKED KITCHEN SINKS
Blocked kitchen sinks are one of the most common
plumbing issues to occur in the modern home.
Given the importance of the role that this
facility plays on a daily basis, its also one of
the most frustrating household problems. But
you neednt start worrying just yet there may be
a simple solution for the blocked drain
Essex. When your kitchen sink is clogged with
gunk and junk, these five simple tasks may be all
you need to clear the blockage and get things
back to normal. So, what are you waiting for?
Lets get to work.
3SINK UNBLOCKER 1 THE BAKING SODA TRICK
- The process is very simple. First of all, you
want to pour a kettles worth of boiling water
down the kitchen sink. Secondly, tip roughly 100g
of baking soda followed by a mixture of 250ml
boiling water and 250ml vinegar. Cover the
opening and let the ingredients do their job for
10 minutes before pouring another kettle of
boiling water to flush. Voila
SINK UNBLOCKER 2 CAUSTIC SODA
- If baking soda doesnt work, you may need to go
for a slightly more heavy duty approach. Sodium
hydroxide is available in most DIY stores and can
do the hard work when baking soda and vinegar
fails. - Before doing anything, ensure your hands are
covered as this material can burn. Mix roughly
three litres of cold water with 450g of the
caustic soda. Pour it down the sink and leave it
for half an hour. Flush through with boiling
water, and repeat the process if necessary.
4SINK UNBLOCKER 3 USE A METAL HANGER
When the drain is blocked, youll invariably need
to do one of two things. The materials that are
causing the clog can either be pushed through or
pulled out. Either way, a metal coat hanger can
be your secret weapon.
SINK UNBLOCKER 4 CLEAN THE TRAP
- This step is arguably a little more complex than
some of the alternatives. Nonetheless, you
shouldnt encounter too many issues, and it may
solve your problems. - Look under the sink, and you should be able to
unscrew the cap which keeps the trap locked in
place. Before detaching it, youll want to place
a bucket underneath in order to catch any water.
Once youve removed the trap, clearing lodged
materials should be a very easy task indeed.
Screw it back in place tightly, checking that
there arent any leaks, and you should be good to
go.
5SINK UNBLOCKED 5 PLUNGE IT
- It might not be the most glamorous of household
products, but a trusty plunger may just be one of
the most valuable items at your disposal. This is
especially true when it comes to unblocking a
clogged kitchen sink. - The process is simple. However, it is one that
will require a lot of force. Once the plunger has
created that vacuum over the sink, youll need to
complete the plunge motion at least 10 times.
Following this, youll want to check to see if
the block has gone. If still clogged, repeating
the process is worthwhile.
