The Power of Natural Drain Cleaning: Bicarb and Vinegar to the Rescue

Are you tired of dealing with clogged drains in your South Tyneside home? Before reaching for harsh chemicals, consider a more eco-friendly and cost-effective solution: using bicarb and vinegar to unblock your drain. At Clearing Blocked Drains Newcastle, we've seen firsthand the effectiveness of this natural method, and we're here to guide you through the process.

How Does it Work?

The combination of bicarb (baking soda) and vinegar is a classic cleaning duo that's been around for centuries. When you mix the two, they react to form carbon dioxide gas, which creates a gentle yet powerful cleaning action. This reaction helps to break down and dissolve any blockages in your drain, leaving it flowing freely once again.

A Step-by-Step Guide to Unclogging Your Drain with Bicarb and Vinegar

  1. Pour 1 cup of bicarb down the drain, making sure to cover the entire surface.
  2. Follow with 1 cup of vinegar, which will start to fizz and bubble as it reacts with the bicarb.
  3. Allow the mixture to sit in the drain for 2-3 hours or overnight, giving it time to work its magic.
  4. After the sitting time has passed, pour boiling water down the drain to rinse away any remaining debris.
  5. Repeat the process if the blockage persists, but be careful not to overdo it, as excessive use can damage your pipes.

When to Call in the Professionals

While the bicarb and vinegar method is a great DIY solution, there are times when a more serious blockage requires professional attention.
