What Should You Do if You Have a Blocked Sink?

If you suspect that you have a blocked sink, it's essential to take action before the problem escalates. Here are some steps you can take before calling Drainage Cumbria:

1. Remove any visible debris: If you see any food scraps, hair or soap buildup in the sink, try to remove them as much as possible using a pair of gloves or tongs.

2. Try a plunger: If the blockage is not severe, you can try using a plunger to create suction and dislodge the clog. Place the plunger over the plughole and push and pull it up and down vigorously, creating a vacuum that should loosen the debris. Once you're done, run some hot water down the sink to flush away any remaining debris.

3. Do not use chemical drain cleaners: While it may be tempting to use chemical drain cleaners to fix a blocked sink, we advise against it. These products contain harsh chemicals that can damage your pipes, and they often don't work as advertised. In some cases, they can even make the problem worse.

4. Call Drainage Cumbria: If the blockage persists despite your efforts, or if it is severe, you should call us right away. We will dispatch a team of experts to your location as soon as possible, equipped with the tools and technology to diagnose and fix the problem.
