DIY Tips for Bathroom Sink Clogs and Leaks: A Lighthearted Guide

Is your bathroom sink acting up in San Francisco, draining slower than a Monday morning? Before you panic, try these DIY tips!


  1. Unclogging:
    Baking Soda & Vinegar:
    Pour a cup of baking soda followed by a cup of vinegar into the drain. Watch it fizz like a science experiment, then flush with hot water. It’s like magic, but for plumbing.

    Plunger Power: Channel your inner superhero with a plunger. Ensure there’s enough water to cover the cup and give it a few firm pumps. You might just save yourself from calling for help.

  2. Fixing Leaks:
    Tighten Connections: Check under the sink and tighten any loose fittings. If that doesn’t stop the leak, your sink might just be overacting.

    Replace the Sink Trap: If the leak persists, swap out the P-trap. It’s easier than assembling IKEA furniture and will stop that waterworks show.

  3. Prevention:
    Drain Screens: Use them to catch hair and debris. Your sink will stay clear and clog-free.

    Regular Clean-Up: Clean out your sink regularly to keep it happy and healthy.
