Housekeeping tips

One of the problems that occasionally pops up is a blocked kitchen sink. Unfortunately, the continuous use we make of the kitchen sink makes it prone getting blocked. We can try to prevent food and other organic waste from ending up in the pipes, but this is not always easy.

For many, solving the problem of a blocked sink means calling out a plumber - and this can be very expensive.

But there is an easy and cheap solution to this problem that could be right for you!

Quick and easy cleaning and unblocking

In the case of minor blockages, just follow this simple procedure to start cleaning the sink. All you need is one ingredient: ecological powder detergent. Here's how to proceed step by step:

First, boil about half a liter of water, then put two teaspoons of the ecological powder detergent down the drain and follow this with the boiling water. The passage of the detergent and water will dissolve any blockages caused by dirt, dust or limescale.

We recommend that you wait at least 15-20 minutes after pouring the mix down the drain: this amount of time will be needed for the "mixture" to do its work. If you do not have this type of detergent available, you could also use sodium bicarbonate as it is equally effective and has great degreasing properties. Did you know about these tips?
