Sink and Drain Unblocking

Kitchen and bathroom sinks that drain slowly or hold water.

About this service

Slow drainage can come from a local trap or from further along the line. Mention which outlets are affected and whether a gurgling sound comes from another fixture.

Kitchen sinks, bathroom basins, and floor traps that hold water belong on this page. A toilet bowl that will not clear belongs on the toilet choke page instead.

Say what usually goes into that sink, such as grease or hair, only if you know. If you do not, describe the water level and how long it sits.

Questions

You do not need to. If you already did, say which product, so the person attending knows what is in the line.

Name that trap and the room. A photo of the standing water is enough to start.
