Are you tired of dealing with a blocked sink in your South Tyneside home? Don't worry, we've got you covered. At Clearing Blocked Drains Newcastle, we understand the frustration that comes with a clogged sink, and we're here to help you unblock it without using a plunger.

Before we dive into the steps to clear a blocked sink, it's essential to understand what might be causing the blockage. Common culprits include food waste, grease, and hair. If you're washing dishes or cleaning up after a meal, it's easy for debris to accumulate in the sink drain. If you notice your sink is draining slowly or not at all, it's likely that there's a blockage in the pipe.

The first step in clearing a blocked sink is to turn off the water supply. Locate the shut-off valves under the sink and turn them clockwise to shut off the water supply. This will prevent any more water from flowing into the sink and making the blockage worse.

One of the most effective ways to clear a blocked sink without a plunger is to use baking soda and hot water. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 2 cups of hot water. Let the mixture sit for a few hours or overnight, allowing the baking soda to break down the blockage. Then, pour hot water down the drain to rinse it out.

If the baking soda and hot water method doesn't work, you can try using a wire to clear the blockage. You can purchase a drain snake or use a wire coat hanger to create your own. Feed the wire into the drain and manipulate it to break up any blockages. Be careful not to scratch the pipes.

If none of the above methods work, it's time to call a professional. At Clearing Blocked Drains Newcastle, we have the expertise and equipment to clear even the toughest blockages. Our team of experienced drain specialists will use high-pressure water jetting or other techniques to clear your sink drain and get your water flowing freely again.

To prevent future blockages, make sure to regularly clean your sink drain with baking soda and hot water. You can also use a drain screen or filter to catch hair and other debris before they go down the drain. By taking these simple steps, you can avoid the hassle and expense of a blocked sink.
