Is a clogged drain “causing a pain in your drain” within your business or home’s sink? It happens to all of us from time to time. It’s a good idea to keep a plumbing professional’s contact information on hand, just in case such an urgent need arises. Until a qualified plumbing services specialist can get to your home or business, there are a few steps you can take to try and unclog the drain.
Step One: Plug the overflow sink area with a washcloth, while placing a plunger over the mouth of the clogged drain.
Step Two: Press plunger down firmly and then quickly pull it up. Repeat this 20 – 30 times to remove the debris from the clogged drain.
Step Three: Repeat until drain unclogs.
Step Four: Watch our helpful video that explains this process clearly
