Block drain

A blocked drain is usually caused by buildup of hair, grease, food scraps, or soap scum. To clear it quickly, start by pouring a kettle of boiling water down the drain to loosen minor clogs. Follow with a mix of half a cup of baking soda and half a cup of white vinegar—let it fizz for 15 minutes, then flush again with hot water.

If that fails, use a plunger to create suction or a drain snake/plumber’s auger to break up the blockage physically. Avoid chemical drain cleaners if possible, as they can damage pipes over time. For persistent or recurring blocks, call a plumber to inspect for deeper issues like tree roots or collapsed pipes.

Prevention helps: use drain strainers, avoid pouring grease or oil down sinks, and flush with hot water weekly.
