Is the water in your sink not draining properly, and are you experiencing unpleasant odors? Then the drain is likely clogged. A clogged drain can have various causes. Often, a blockage is caused by an accumulation of waste, soap, or lime residue on the inside of the drain. Additionally, hair ending up in the drain can also result in a clogged drain.
Objects such as pins, elastic bands, cotton swabs, and small pieces of paper can also lead to a drain blockage. Are you dealing with a clogged drain and looking for a plumber for drain unblocking in Amsterdam? Then call unblocking company RBNL Amsterdam and have your drain unblocked in Amsterdam by our recognized, reliable, and skilled plumbers.
Our technicians assess where and why the drain is clogged. Sometimes this can be done with a simple small inspection, but it may also be necessary to perform a camera inspection if the blockage is deeper in the pipes. Afterward, professional equipment is used to remove the dirt or buildup, for example, with a mechanical spring machine or high-pressure sprayer. This way, the water can flow away again. Afterward, the technician tests whether the drain is completely clear and provides advice on how to prevent future clogs.
Should the inspection reveal a break or sag in the sewer system, our specialists can also assist you with repairs or replacement of the affected pipe sections. This means you don't have to look for another party yourself.

For small and superficial clogs in your drain, you might try to fix them yourself. However, clogs are often stubborn and located deeper, requiring expertise and professional equipment to fully resolve the issue. Also, attempting to fix it yourself can sometimes push a clog deeper into the sewer system.
That's why we recommend calling a specialist immediately if you notice your drain isn't working properly. This will save you a lot of time, effort, and frustration. If you do decide to try it yourself, here are a few tips:
First, you can try to clear the blockage by pouring buckets of lukewarm water down the drain. If you see a whirlpool forming, it's often a sign that the drain is no longer blocked.
If water alone isn't enough to clear the blockage, you can flush the drain with a mixture of warm water and baking soda. Baking soda is a natural agent that can loosen and dissolve dirt in the drain.
Dish soap can also help clear a blockage. This method is most effective when the drain is clogged by grease. Pour a bucket of warm water and dish soap down the drain and let it sit for half a day. After this time, you can open the tap to check if the water drains properly again.
Some clogs are caused by a blockage inside or just behind the U-bend (siphon). You can solve these types of clogs by disconnecting the U-bend and removing the blockage. When disconnecting, don't forget to place a bucket underneath the U-bend to catch water and debris. Then clean the U-bend with water and soda to ensure it's free of any remaining residue.
This method of unclogging can be used for both kitchen sinks and bathroom sinks. For bathroom sinks, be careful not to use boiling water, as this can crack the porcelain.
If the above methods don't work, you can try to clear the drain with a drain snake or a plunger. Frequent or incorrect use can cause damage to the drain. Therefore, try the methods above first before using drain-clearing tools.
