Problem with sink blockage?

Tired of blocked up sinks? Tired of complaining wives?

Well we have got the perfect solution for you. All we ask for is a few seconds of your precious time and of course your reading glasses…

Most often the area blocked is the trap connected with your sink drain. Sometimes the issue may be a snake nestling at that specific level. For un-blocking a sink you need to dismantle the trap to get access. If matters get out of hand you might want to call plumber Colorado Springs.

For this specific purpose you will require a few items that will make this task easy to bear. Keep at an arm’s length a bowl, a bucket, replacement washers and an old toothbrush, a pair of rubber gloves, sink cleaner and that awesome charm that you possess.

The initial step is to undo the trap. You can do it manually or use a wrench. Place a bucket beneath it so that you do not get soaked with the dripping water. Remove the debris with gloved hands (rubber gloves to be specific). The problematic debris is, usually, a tuft of hair or clumped up soap particles. You might want to take a shot at the bathroom waste basket or just get a plumber from plumber Colorado Springs…. Suit yourself.

The next thing up on the list is to clean that dismantled trap thoroughly. For this purpose a toothbrush is just the right thing. Rinse the trap in the bucket placed beneath. Now comes the final step of replacing the trap back where it came from. Secure it back and look for any worn out washers. If you find them unfit, immediately replace them; otherwise you might encounter troublesome leaks.

To prevent future trouble you might want to instruct your family especially the long haired members, to prevent accumulation of unnecessary debris. Also make sure that your pipes are algae free. You might want to frequent the use of drain plug adjustment arm. This instrument works when the spring tab is removed.  After that you need to remove the ball valve from the sink trap. Get rid of the pop up plug in your sink bowl. Now you can easily remove the debris which has been clogging your sink. At any stage if you feel lost be sure to call plumber Colorado Springs for further assistance.

If you keep unclogging after a couple of days you might never have to clear traps. Also make sure that durable products have been used in your plumbing system (bought from plumber Colorado Springs) because they might lead to unnecessary leaks.

Using bleach off and on might decrease the incident as well. But, if you live in a home full of kids you might want to reconsider.

Try this very useful technique and rest assured that you won’t have to face that mucky blockade again or better still pay the huge plumbing bills that never seem to end.
