Slow draining bathroom sinks are one those slow-onset, insidious annoyances that many of us tend to ignore until the sink has reached a painfully slow crawl.  Thankfully, however, resolving the problem can be done in just a few simple steps.


Don Kennedy, President of ProMaster Home Repair & Handyman of Cincinnati, walks you through how to disassemble and clean both the p-trap and popup in your bathroom sink drain.  This bathroom repair is simple enough for most homeowners and does not require any specialized tools.  Warning: the video does depict some gross contents in the drain!

Cleaning the slime out of a bathroom sink drain is no fun.  But neither are the enormous repair bills from an overflowing or leaking bathroom sink.  Hire a pro if this project is something you aren’t comfortable tackling on your own—and enjoy the peace of mind knowing that your sink drains and water supply lines are about to spring a leak!

Great video guys. I'd rather it be you under the sink than me… I'm too old for this stuff! Not to mention I hate cleaning the hair and junk out of my drains.

Don – After watching the video about bathroom drain cleaning, I am actually excited about giving it a try. Please have one of your Master Craftsman on call this weekend as my plumbing efforts usually result in some kind of disaster like leaky pipes that were not leaking before I started the project. Thanks for the info!

Drew–I believe in you… YOU CAN DO IT!!! (But… if something does go wrong, you can still give me a call and I won't say anything about it to anyone). :)

Sorry guys, I took most of the plumbing out from under the sink (except the part that goes into the wall)–cleaned all the gunk out, and the drainage problem is not much better than before.
