Clearing Blocked Drains Newcastle

Are you tired of dealing with a slow-draining shower in your South Tyneside home? Do you find yourself standing in a pool of water every time you try to wash up? The culprit behind this frustrating issue might just be soap scum buildup in your shower drain. At Clearing Blocked Drains Newcastle, we've seen our fair share of clogged drains, and we're here to help you tackle the problem.

Soap scum, a combination of soap residue, body oils, and hair, can accumulate in your shower drain, causing blockages and reducing water flow. This buildup can be exacerbated by hard water, which is common in the North East of England. When soap scum combines with mineral deposits, it creates a stubborn substance that can be difficult to remove. But don't worry, we've got some tips to help you clean your shower drain and get your water flowing freely again.

Before calling in the professionals, you can try a few DIY methods to clean your shower drain. Here are a few techniques you can try:

• Baking soda and vinegar: Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of vinegar. Let the mixture sit for a few hours before rinsing with hot water.
• Boiling water: Pour a kettle of boiling water down the drain to help dissolve any blockages.
• Soda crystals: Use a product like Soda Crystals to help break down soap scum and mineral deposits.

While DIY methods can be effective, they might not always work. If you've tried the above techniques and your shower drain is still clogged, it's time to call in the professionals. At Clearing Blocked Drains Newcastle, our team of experts has the equipment and expertise to quickly and efficiently clean your shower drain.

To prevent soap scum buildup in the future, consider the following tips:
