1. Try Hot Water First

Pouring hot water down the drain can help break down grease and soap build-up. This is often enough to clear small blockages in kitchen sinks.

2. Use a Plunger

A standard plunger can be very effective for blocked drains. Make sure you create a tight seal and use firm, consistent pressure to dislodge the blockage.

3. Baking Soda and Vinegar

Pour half a cup of baking soda followed by vinegar into the drain. Let it sit for 10–15 minutes, then flush with hot water. This can help break down debris naturally.

4. Check for Visible Blockages

If possible, inspect the drain for hair, food, or debris near the opening and remove it manually.
