Despite the constant warnings and relentless campaigning by water companies and other drainage experts, it is still the case that fat, oil and grease (FOG) being poured down sinks is responsible for 75 per cent of all drain and sewer blockages (Source: Southern Water’s ‘Pain in the Drain’ campaign). And at Christmas time when everyone looks forward to tucking into their turkey dinner, the risk of this happening is even greater.

My sink isn’t draining properly. What could be the cause?

Most people use fat and oil to prepare food, but lard, butter, margarine and cooking oil more often than not ends up being poured away down the kitchen sink.

Over time, the oils and fats can harden inside the drains and sewers with this concrete-like material restricting the flow of wastewater in the pipework. These substances solidify and get caught up with other bits of food and household items that are disposed of in this way.

The blockages mentioned above can lead to wastewater backing up through sinks and toilets – or being pushed out into streets and waterways.

What is the worst-case scenario for a blocked sink?

Unblocked Inspect Element Unblocked Everything Mod

Sink blockages, like a clogged toilet, can sometimes lead to flooding within the home. Needless to say, this can be very unhygienic and unpleasant for those living in the property. It can also result in costly repairs. This is without considering the environmental impact – and the effect it can have on the wider sewerage system too.

At Emergency Plumber, we recommend householders and business owners get this sorted out as soon as possible.

A smell is coming from the sink in my kitchen. How can I get rid of it?

Over time, a blocked sink can lead to unpleasant smells in the kitchen. We’ve mentioned this in a previous post on Drain Smells, so feel free to refer back to this for specific advice on this issue.

While this may seem like a bit too obvious, we’ll say it anyway: don’t flush any more water down the sink! This only serves to make the issue harder to resolve.

In terms of solutions, drain cleaners such as One Shot can be used to open clogged drains quickly. However, we would always advise householders to take the necessary precautions before using such products to unblock plugholes and pipes. Alternatively, you can get in touch with us here at Emergency Plumber and we can find an expert to sort out the problem for you.

What type of tools will I need to unblock a sink?

If you call an emergency plumber, they will be able to take care of everything – but if you do decide to sort it out yourself, you will need to get some plumbing tools which are up to the task.

To address most blockages, a plunger and a drain cleaning coil with brush – which can be picked up from most DIY stores – can be used to plunge the drain and clean the P-trap and the drain line.

Why have I got water coming up through my sink waste when using the washing machine?

It’s not uncommon for a washing machine to share the same drain as the sink. If this appliance is installed close to the kitchen then they will both probably empty into a toilet waste pipe.

Wet venting is a term used by plumbers to describe the oversized configuration of the pipes so that air can pass through the waste line while water is flowing. If the sink backs (and bubbles) up at the same time water is draining from the washing machine during the spin cycle, a sink blockage might be preventing air or/and water from flowing through the line. This can often lead to the unpleasant smells mentioned in a previous question.

Don’t let the issue get any worse. This is not a complicated job, but it is one that should be carried out by someone who knows what they’re doing. Your emergency plumber will be able to inspect the drains behind the walls to make sure this is the case. They will then decide whether to plunge the sink or a nearby toilet, depending on where they expect the blockage to be located.

Is it safe to unblock my sink when I have a macerator?

If you are concerned about unblocking your sink when you have an under-the-sink food macerator, please refer to our article on macerator problems and cures. This post explains everything you need to know about owning and maintaining an “InSinkErator” or one of the other products out there.

To be completely honest, we don’t ever encourage homeowners to buy one as they can be very dangerous, but we will still offer guidance for those who do decide to buy one. Precautions must be taken at all times when trying to unblock the waste pipe at the back of the unit. Place a bucket underneath to catch any dirty, sludgy water that may be have become trapped in the drain.

Is it the job of a plumber or drainage engineer to unblock my sink?

A drainage engineer usually works with the lateral drains and sewer systems beyond the curtilage of your home. They can be called out to work on private drains, clearing or repairing them in the case of a blocked sink; but plumbers are more used to being called out in these type of emergency residential situations.

Feel free to check out our post on how an emergency plumber can help you out of a kitchen disaster.

When unblocking my sink, will I need to replace the waste pipe?

If you have an obstruction that lies beyond the trap, and you cannot run a snake through the waste pipe, it might be necessary to disassemble some of the drain system in order to reach the source of the issue.

In most cases, the issue can be solved without having to replace the blocked sink waste pipe, but y
