The sink is an essential part of your home plumbing system, and it's used for a variety of purposes - from washing dishes to brushing your teeth. However, sinks can often become blocked due to a buildup of debris, grease, hair, and other materials that can clog the drain and prevent water from flowing freely.

When a sink becomes blocked, you'll notice that the water won't drain away as quickly as it should. It might also start to smell, and you may hear gurgling or bubbling sounds coming from the plughole. If left untreated, a blocked sink can cause more serious plumbing issues and even lead to water damage or flooding.
