Sink blockages can happen for several reasons, such as food scraps, hair, grease, soap scum buildup, or foreign objects. When blockages occur, it leads to slow-draining water or no drainage at all. It's best to address the problem as soon as possible to avoid further damage to your plumbing or water damage in your home.

At Drainage Cumbria, we have the tools and expertise to handle any sink blockage, whether it's in your kitchen, bathroom, or commercial property. Our team will assess the situation, identify the cause, and apply the best solution.

One of the common methods we use to remove sink blockages is the plunger. It's a simple tool that creates suction and pressure to dislodge the blockage. Before using a plunger, we recommend clearing out any debris stuck on the surface, such as hair or food particles. You should also fill the sink with water before plunging, so the plunger has maximum effect.

If plunging doesn't work, we use other proven methods, such as drain snakes or hydro jetting. Drain snakes are flexible, long cables that can go deep into your drain pipes and remove any clogs or debris. Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water streams to flush out blockages and clean your pipes. We choose the best method based on your specific situation, so your sink is fully functional again.
