When your kitchen sink is blocked, the problem might be more complex than it appears. This blog will delve into why blockages occur and why they are often challenging to clear using conventional methods. Understanding Kitchen Sink Blockages Blockages in kitchen sinks usually stem from two types of waste: solid food remnants and grease. Solid blockages, such as those from carrot skins or potato peels, are somewhat easier to manage because they can be physically removed. However, despite being more manageable, these solid blockages are rarely the primary cause of severe clogs that can completely halt the flow of water in your sink. Understanding the different types of blockages in kitchen sinks can help you take preventative measures to keep your kitchen plumbing running smoothly.
