Clearing a Minor Clog
We know that not every clog needs professional intervention. The easiest ways to clear a minor clog include the following:
- Fill the sink partly with water and cover the overflow hole.
- If you have a double sink, plug one of the drains.
- Plunge the open drain with a plunger.
- Repeat this process multiple times.
- If your shower is clogged, use a drain snake, or try to dissolve the clog with a drain cleaner.
