If it's a sink drain , best to remove the entire pipe and P trap. I then take outside and hose them out.
Use a piece of equipment called a snake.
Unhook the drain from below the sink
another clog, further down the drain pipe. You need a drain snake.
You didnt specify where the clog is located. So, if you are referring to a bathroom sink clog, Liquid Drano really works well for me. For a toilet, most clogs can be removed with the use of a plunger. But if this is a drain in a utility closet, then you may have to contract a professional plumber who a access to device know as a Drain Snake to breakthrough the clog for you.
Unclog drain that both sinks drain into.
Pee in the drain or sink! n00b
Probably not, depends on where the clog is at and how the dishwasher drain is connected. I wouldn't chance it, but the worst that will happen is the sink will fill with the water from the dishwasher.
By itself, probably not. Over time, though, other waste and particles will start accumulating around penny and cause a problem. Best to remove penny from sink trap.
If you do this water will not run down the drain, but will add even more mess to the original clog. Soggy,thick leftover foods should go into a garburator or down the toilet. If your sink becomes clogged, remove the P trap beneath it and clean out the mess.
you can try cleaning the sink out with bleach.
Mission CAP or IPS plug if there is a female fitting
You may have a clog in front of your sink as the check vent is lower than the drain on the sink. Snake it or call a plumber.
Best way is to avoid them completely by placing them in your compost pile or in your trash can. But to clear an existing clog plungers and/or small drain snake. If you are trying to clear a clog in a double sink, you will need to block-off one of the drains before using a plunger. After the drain starts working, fill the sink (with water) and drain again, the added pressure of a full sink of water will help assure the clog is cleared. Then don't put grounds down the drain/garbage disposal at all.
If you have a stink coming up from the overflow drain in your bathroom sink, you have some garbage down there that you should not have. You probably have a lot of hair clogging the drain. It is probably slow draining. You need to clean it out and get rid of the gunk.
