Use a plunger

A plunger is usually the first-line tool to unblock your bath. Dip the plunger into the water until it covers the rubber part of the plunger, then use a forceful up-and-down motion to dislodge the blockage. This method works by creating enough suction to suck the blockage out of the pipes, allowing water to flow freely.

Using a Chemical Unblocker

Suppose plunging the bath did not work. In that case, you could try using a chemical unblocker such as liquid plumbing, which is available in most home improvement stores. Follow the instructions carefully and leave the solution to work for about 30 minutes before flushing the drain with hot water.

Remove the Stopper

Some blockages can be removed by unscrewing the stopper at the bottom of your bath. This process requires you to turn the stopper counterclockwise to loosen it, then pull it out. You can then use a wire hanger to reach inside the drain and pull out any hair or debris that might be causing the blockage.
