How To Plunge A Bathroom Sink

A clogged bathroom sink can be a major inconvenience. Plunging is a simple and effective way to clear a clog and get your sink draining again. Here are the steps on how to plunge a bathroom sink:

1. Gather your materials. You will need a plunger, a bucket, and a towel.

2. Position the plunger. Place the plunger over the drain hole in the sink. Make sure that the plunger is completely covering the hole.

3. Add water to the sink. Run the hot water faucet until the sink is about half full.

4. Start plunging. Use a firm, up-and-down motion to plunge the sink. Continue plunging for 10-15 seconds.

5. Check the drain. Remove the plunger and check to see if the clog has been cleared. If the water is still not draining, repeat steps 3-5.

6. Clean up. Once the clog has been cleared, remove the bucket and towel. Rinse the plunger with hot water.

Here are some additional tips for plunging a bathroom sink:

If the clog is severe, you may need to use a stronger plunger.
Be careful not to over-plunge, as this can damage the sink.
If you are unable to clear the clog with a plunger, you may need to call a plumber.
