Causes of a Blocked Bath

There are several reasons why a bath may become blocked. Some of the most common causes of a blocked bath include:

• Hair and skin cells getting stuck in the drain
• Soap scum and other residues blocking the drain
• Foreign objects, such as toys or toiletries, blocking the drain
• Build-up of mineral deposits in the pipes

How to Remove a Blockage in Your Bath

If you have a blocked bath and want to remove the blockage yourself, the following steps may be helpful:

1. Use a plunger - Cover the overflow with duct tape, then fill the tub with a few inches of water. Place the plunger over the drain and pump it up and down several times. This will create pressure and suction that may dislodge the blockage.

2. Using a drain stopper - Place a drain stopper over the drain and fill the bath with a few inches of water. Use a plunger to create suction and force the blockage out of the drain.

3. Using a drain snake - Feed the drain snake into the drain until you feel resistance. Twist and turn the drain snake until the blockage comes loose.

While these DIY methods may be effective in some cases, it is important to consult a professional if the blockage persists or if you are unable to remove the blockage yourself.
