Unclogging a Sink With a Garbage Disposal
Unclogged double kitchen sink with garbage disposal? Easy! If your kitchen sink has standing water in it and the pipes underneath are clear, the clog is probably in the main drain pipe. Try this BEFORE you call a plumber.

Dawn Detergent To Unclog Drain
Instead of harsh chemicals or a plunger, try 1/2 cup of Dawn dishwashing detergent! Just pour it right in the clog and let it sit. After 30 minutes, try and flush. If you don't have Dawn, any detergent brand name will work.

Use Soda Pop Bottle for Clogged Drains
I was helping my friend clean a bathroom that had a clogged basin drain. After the two of us polished off half a two-liter bottle of diet pop, I filled it with water, matched the opening of the bottle to the drain opening and mashed the bottle firmly.

Clearing a Sluggish Sink
I have a bathroom sink that is extremely slow in draining and backs up. I've heard of certain things like boiling water and dishwasher soap poured down as a possible remedy. However, that did not work.

Use Bleach Once a Month to Keep Drains Clear
We recently paid a plumber $95 to clean a clogged bathtub drain. All our home remedy tips did not free the clog. In fact, we even had to have them get the "snake" that we had used out of the drain because it was lodged in and we couldn't get it to move.
