Causes of a drain clog
Does the water in your sink no longer drain properly and are you suffering from odors? Then the drain is probably clogged. A clogged drain can have several causes. Often a clog is caused by an accumulation of waste residue, soap scum or limescale on the inside of the drain. In addition, hair that ends up in the drain can also result in a clogged drain.
Objects such as pins, rubber bands, cotton buds and small papers can also lead to a blocked drain. Are you dealing with a blocked drain and looking for a plumber for drain unblocking Amsterdam? Then call unclogging company RBNL Amsterdam and have your drain unblocked in Amsterdam by our licensed, reliable and skilled plumbers.
How does unclogging work?
Our technicians assess where and why the drain is clogged. Sometimes this can be done easily with a small inspection, but it may also be necessary to perform a camera inspection if the blockage is deeper in the pipes. Then professional equipment is used to remove the dirt or build-up, such as with a mechanical spring machine or high-pressure sprayer. This allows the water to flow away again. Afterwards, the technician tests whether the drain is really completely clear, and we give advice on how to prevent future blockages.
Should the inspection reveal a break or subsidence in the sewer, our specialists can also help you repair or replace the affected pipe sections. So you don't have to look for another party yourself.

Tips for unclogging your drain
You can work on small and superficial drain clogs yourself, but often clogs are stubborn and deeper, requiring expertise and professional equipment to fully solve the problem. You can also move a clog deeper into the sewer by getting started yourself.
This is why we recommend calling in a specialist right away when you notice that your drain is no longer working properly. This will save you a lot of time, effort and frustration. Should you still want to get started yourself, we offer a few tips:
First, you can try dissolving the clog with water by pouring buckets of lukewarm water down the drain. When you see a whirlpool forming in the water, this is often the sign that the drain is no longer clogged.
If water is not enough to stop the clog, you can flush the drain with a mixture of warm water and baking soda. Baking soda is a natural remedy that can loosen and dissolve dirt in the drain.
Detergent can also clear a clog. This method is most effective when the drain is clogged with grease residue. Pour a bucket of warm water and dish soap down the drain and let it soak for half a day. Once the soaking time has passed, you can open the faucet to see if the water flushes away properly again.
Some blockages are caused by a blockage in or just behind the siphon. You can solve this type of blockage by disconnecting the siphon and removing the blockage. When disconnecting, remember to place a bucket under the siphon to catch water and debris. Then clean the siphon with water and baking soda to ensure that it is free of residue left behind.
This method of drain unclogging can be used for both sink and sink unclogging. With the sink, be careful not to use boiling water; this can crack the porcelain.
If the above methods do not work, you can try unclogging the drain with an unblocker spring or a plopper. Frequent or improper use can cause damage to the drain. Therefore, try the above ways first before getting started with unclogging materials.

Why your drain often gets clogged
A drain can become clogged for several reasons. For example, hair, food scraps, soap scum and lime can build up in the pipe, leading to a blockage. It is also possible that the clog is caused by small objects such as pins, rubber bands or even cotton buds that have ended up in the drain. It is best to fix an incipient clog as soon as possible. Here are some tips for preventing a clog:
- Place a strainer in front of the drain. This strainer will keep food particles and blockages out of the drain. When the strainer is full, empty it into the trash. This is also a good tip for the shower drain.
- You can also be careful that items such as pins and cotton swabs do not accidentally end up in the drain, which can lead to blockages.
- Shower drains and sinks can be cleaned regularly by removing stuck hairs and rinsing the drains clean with water and baking soda, reducing the chances of a clog.
