Step 3: Check Drain Stopper

The drain stopper is another potential cause of a blocked bath. Check to see if it's clogged with hair, soap, or other debris, and remove any material that may be blocking it.

Step 4: Check Overflow

The overflow is located below the faucet and above the drain. It's designed to prevent water from overflowing from the bath. Sometimes, the overflow can become clogged and cause a blockage. Use a small mirror to check for any debris in the overflow, and remove it with a long wire or brush.

Step 5: Using Chemicals

If the above steps have not worked, you can try using a chemical drain cleaner. However, be cautious on the type of chemical you use, as some drain cleaners can cause damage to your pipes.

If you have tried these steps and still cannot remove the blockage, then it's time to call in the professionals.
