How to Unblock a Bath Drain

If you're dealing with a blocked bath, your first impulse may be to try and deal with it yourself. Before you grab a plunger or some drain cleaner, there are a few steps you can take to help reduce the blockage:

1. Remove any visible debris from the top of your drain, such as hair or soap scum.

2. Fill the bath with hot water, and wait for several minutes to allow the water to work its way through the blockage.

3. Use a plunger or a drain snake to try and dislodge the blockage.

If none of these steps do the trick, it's time to call in the professionals at Drainage Cumbria. We have the expertise and equipment required to get your bath drain flowing again quickly and effectively.

Using a Plunger to Unblock a Bath

If you're feeling brave and want to try and deal with the blockage yourself, a plunger can be an effective tool. Here's how to use one:

1. Fill the bath with enough water to cover the end of the plunger.

2. Cover the overflow with a rag to ensure that all of the pressure is focused on the plughole.

3. Place the plunger over the plughole, ensuring that you create a tight seal.

4. Push the plunger down and pull up rapidly, creating a vacuum. Repeat this several times until the blockage is dislodged.

If you are still unable to resolve the issue, don't hesitate to give us a call at Drainage Cumbria. We are always happy to help.
