The best way to deal with blocked drains is never to block them in the first place (see ‘Waste water and drainage’ under ‘Essential household knowledge’ in the Contents List of this website). However, if you’re experiencing a welling up of water (and emotion), it could herald the first symptoms of a blockage. Using a plunger If the sink or hand basin is blocked and water refuses to drain out, begin by pouring hot water down the sink. If that doesn’t work, use a plunger or ‘plumber’s friend’ — a large rubber suction cup on a wooden handle. If you have a double sink, firmly plug the second plughole before plunging the first one, to prevent water spurting up at you. Cup the plunger tightly over the plughole and plunge it vigorously up and down several times. If that doesn’t work immediately, concentrate on pushing down slowly, making sure the plunger is sealed to the hole and then pulling up quickly. This tends to loosen the blockage rather than pack it......www.howjunct ion.com
