Clearing Blocked Drains Newcastle

Are you tired of dealing with blocked drains in your South Tyneside home? One common solution is to use caustic soda, a powerful chemical that can dissolve grease and other blockages. However, using caustic soda can be tricky, and if not done correctly, it can cause more harm than good. At Clearing Blocked Drains Newcastle, our team of experts is here to guide you through the process and offer our professional services if you need help.

Caustic soda, also known as sodium hydroxide, is a strong alkaline substance that can dissolve grease, hair, and other organic matter that can clog your drains. When you pour caustic soda down your drain, it reacts with the water to produce heat, which helps to break down the blockage. However, it's essential to use caustic soda with caution, as it can cause burns and damage to your pipes if not handled correctly.

If you decide to use caustic soda to clean your drains, make sure to follow these steps:

1. Wear protective gloves and goggles to avoid skin and eye irritation.
2. Pour 1-2 cups of caustic soda down the drain, depending on the severity of the blockage.
3. Follow the caustic soda with 2-3 cups of hot water to help the chemical react with the blockage.
4. Let the mixture sit in the drain for 30 minutes to an hour before rinsing with hot water.
5. Repeat the process if the blockage persists.

While caustic soda can be an effective solution for minor blockages, it's not always the best option. If you're dealing with a severe blockage or if you're not comfortable using caustic soda, it's best to call a professional.
