How to clear common pipe blockages
A blocked pipe will catch us all out at some point! But don’t worry, to help you tackle it, here are the three top causes I’ve come across and how to clear them quickly…
Blocked sink:
Mix some baking soda with white vinegar, pour it down the sink and cover it for 30 minutes. If that still hasn’t shifted the problem, follow it up with hot water.
Blocked toilet:
Thankfully, an ordinary bucket of hot water, a trusty plunger, or (in more severe cases) a toilet auger can dislodge any blockages in a jiffy.
Blocked soil pipe:
A pongy smell or slow draining loo are tell-tale signs of this. It can be complicated to fix, so it’s probably best you give me a call to help sort it.
Now you’ve shown those nasty blockages who’s boss, my final tip is to go and treat yourself to a nice hot cuppa! To read the full guide click the link below.
