Summary: Learn how to unblock a sink drain, unblocking a kitchen sink, unblocking a bathroom sink and unblocking a shower or bath plug hole.
Over time, your sink, shower or bath can become blocked up, preventing water from flowing through the waste pipe. In bathrooms, this is often caused by hair. In kitchen sinks the cause of the blockage is usually fat or food particles. Over time these debris usually get blocked in the trap (the ‘U’ bend in the piping).
