You are an absolute legend! thank you so much! i had a terrible sink blockage! tried baking soda and vinegar, Mr Muscle overnight sink unblocker, bleach! Nothing worked! literally grabbed the plunger and did exactly what you said whilst watching this video! and it worked in seconds! i lost so much sleep about this dam blocked sink! thank you so much!!! You've saved me from wasting money on having this done professionally!
Glad it helped!
Mate you have just saved me a few quid! My sink was blocked and I’ve been plunging away to no avail. I followed your instructions on covering the overflow hole and managed to unblock my sink. On behalf of me and my wallet thank you sir!!
Glad it helped
You're a legend mate! Blocking the over flow instantly unblocked it after a couple pushes. Cheers!
Spent 30 minutes trying at the sink watched your video cleared in 60 seconds. Silly I didn’t think of it myself but job done
I've taken my pipes apart like 3 times trying to fix my sink. This worked first try. Youre a legend! Thank you so much
I just unblocked my first clogged sink thanks to this video. It’s scarred me for life, but the blocking up all the water exits tip was where I was going wrong. I don’t comment on videos often, and may I add that the ridiculously gross experience was made slightly better with the funny commentary. Thank you 🤓 🪠
"I'm extremely talented, so I can do it" Lol. :)
Lol
Yeah well i live alone so i’ve got no choice

Thumbs up for the help and for this - 'Out of respect to our channel sponsors and the wide variety of people who watch our videos, we will remove comments that do not follow common standards of politeness and decency.' Nice work.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾
I spent nearly 2 hours watching a TON of RUclips videos and google articles.. this video nailed it with absolute ease.. NO money spent. NO acids or liquids/boiling water. NO getting hands and knees dirty tryna yank out pipes. (I did ALL of this and it didn’t work) Finally something soo simple done the job! I nearly lost hope and was dreading to spend a fortune. Wish I saw this sooner but so glad I did, Thanks again 🙌🏾
Thanks David. Please help our channel by liking and sharing
You are so natural and funny. Love your vids going to see if this works on my blocked sink. Thank you
Man, I don’t know you and this is my first time seeing your channel but THANK YOU! this is the only thing I’ve seen anywhere online that actually works.
Thanks so much! I followed your advice and it worked a treat. I had spent a lot of time and effort this week on a badly blocked sink. Now it’s all clear!
God bless you sir.
You are a life saver, I can confirm that this technique works 100% 😁
Thank you for your help! You have just helped me and my boyfriend unblock a sink for the first time ! 😊
Glad I could help!
THANKS!!You just saved me!!! ..BEEN battling with my blocked kitchen sink all day...i bought coastic soda and another liquid unblocker and a black plunger similar to the one you have in your video but smaller, emptied half the liquids unblocker bottles , left it for 2 hrs , it didnt work.In fact when i used the plunger the water was coming out from the over-flow hole which means nothing was working! Only when i stumbled across your video and followed your technique i.e i block the over-flow hole first and then used the suction of the plunger in the sink like in your video and as if by MIRACLE all sorts of dirt,rubbish , etc gushed out of the sink hole! It UNBLOCKED MY SINK after like just 6 plunges!!!! Thank you and happy NEW YEAR!!Happy days!
This is probably the most useful video I've watched on RUclips! Our kitchen sink was blocked, tried drain cleaner left overnight with no joy.
Tried plunging for a couple of hours. The water just would not drain.
Watched this video. Went back and tried again, this time blocking the overflow.
All it took was a few plunges and the drain cleared!! Amazing.
Glad it helped! Please watch another video, it helps the channel do good things
cleared my kitchen sink in 4 plunges with the plunger. It was blocking the twin sink that I did not know about. Your video is priceless. thanks again
I loved watching your video, very entertaining - and so helpful about needing to plug up the holes! It wasn’t working before… I went back to try it and the water went down! 😀 Thank you!!!
For 2 days we've tried chemicals of all kinds n nothing worked, last time I called a plumber he asked me for 250 euro..
I was just about to give up and call him again but then I tried this little trick: what a life saver!
This is one of the rare occasions where I found a genuinely useful and simple how-to video.Thanks a lot for your help, you got a like and a new subscriber right here!
Great video, has worked for us after a week of blockage and trying home methods with vinegar/baking soda. I purchased the monument one having seen it work so well on this video.
Thank you!
I dont often comment but after asking my landlady to call someone in and waiting to weeks for it to happen i decided to seek help online and this simple tip with blocking the overflow worked wonders!! Thanks a lot! I hope you have a great day
Thank you for this VITAL yet simple piece of advice which saves POLLUTING the environment with toxic chemicals - which a plumber told me to use.
Our on-suite wash-hand basin has been so slow to drain. Using my old rubber plunger, it now disappears without a problem. You're a star!
That is great, made my day. I love to see a basin waste run away like new.
2022 and still saving lifes 🤣, thank-
you very much for the video, worked for me.
You just got a like and subscribe. The masking tape tip from another member helped, too. I hate DIY massively and was close to asking my plumber mate round.
Thanks man. This was an awesome video and look forward to watching more that you've made.
I used some blue tack to seal the overflow, worked well.
Thank you for the info. It worked perfectly
2 minutes with the plunger did the job !!!!!! Thank you
God bless you!I was a bit hopeless before I watched your technique. It worked really well!Thank you very much!
Thank you SO VERY MUCH for your helpful information in your video!! My kitchen sink was plugged up for around 2 weeks! I tried boiling water, over 2 bottles of Liquid Plumber, and a plunger very similar to the one that you showed in your video, and was going to try to take some of the pipes apart to find where the clog was, but I prayed for God to help me find another way. After finding your video earlier today I thought I'd try my plunger again after putting my strainer with the stopper in, and now the clog is totally cleared out!! Thank you SO VERY MUCH for saving me a lot of time and money! God bless you for your honest advise and helping so many of us!!
Really helped with my sink!! Great advise!
Really thought I was going to have to call a plumber and then a minute or two of this had it cleared. Thank you!!
Thank you so much! I have just unblocked my sink, and nothing else would work. Fabulous. Can't thank you enough for your wonderful video.😀❤
Absolutely fantastic just pulled pipes all over the place wife squealing in one ear look at the state of the kitchen. Had enough turned to your channel spotted the plunger and said to myself I have one of them in my shed I remember buying one of them years ago found it came running back into the kitchen the wife’s says what the hell is that I said stand back stand well back she said I’m away to my sons house call me when you have fixed my kitchen and with five minutes of plunging I unblocked my sink yeha I said that man’s channel is the best I would have giving you a big hug friend.so I phoned my wife six hours later and says it’s all done , great six hours break from nagging lol😂thank you friend once again.
HI Roy
What a great story, I hope she treated you very nicely when she returned. We all like a happy ending.
Oh yes 6 hours of bliss,yes everything is great thanks to you,brilliant I felt like I was a plumber man lol many thanks,I will subscribe to your fantastic channel.
Brilliant little video, probably less mess than taking out the U bend. Thanks
That drumming at the end both disturbed and made me laugh at the same time, nice one Roger and video editor!
You Sir are the best. I followed your advice and it worked a treat.
Many thanks
Thanks to this video I spent £4 on a plunger from Wickes, and successfully unblocked 2 bathroom sinks, so more having to waste £4-£5 every few months on a liquid unblocker 😬Thank you so much!!!
I used tissue to block the overflow hole. (Thought I’d mention that in case others don’t know what to use).
Sink 1 unblocked after 2 minutes. Sink 2 took a a bit about 3-minutes. Happy days, as I was contemplating soda and vinegar which there was no guarantee would work. So glad I stumbled upon this video! Saved myself a lot of time and effort.
Wow! After trying everything all night , soon as I’ve tried the way you’ve done it(covering the overflow hole) it’s unclog in a second 😁. Thank you so so much for sharing such an useful informations with us🙏🙂
Glad it helped
Thank you mate. Saved me a lot of hassle. Have an excellent day.
The blocking overflow trick saved my sink. I had tried everything and nothing worked. Thank you for selflessly sharing your trade secrets. You’re doing god’s work.
Tried branded cleaners/plunger/soda crystals thought I was about to start opening drains. But your advice on the simplest of remedies WORKED. Cover the overflow. How simple and that created the necessary pressure to force all through and really clear sink. Thank you.
Glad I could help
Omg it's so simple!! Thank you :D

Thanks , I spent £20.00 on stuff to unblock sink , & the plunger was the one last thing I used that removed the blockage , but that’s after a week of being covered in drain water , after trying everything to fix it …. Once It ran clear & blockage was removed , I thanked god & then I wanted to Thankyou …. Saved me from plumbers fees I really couldn’t afford. So Thankyou
Perfect, thank you so much for this!

Thank you so much 👍🏻
It worked! Thank you 😊
What a godsend finding this video has been. Two blocked sinks and both cleared within minutes. THANK YOU!!!!! 😀
Excellent!
What do you recommend between blockages just to keep things clean and flowing
You are a kitchen God saver. Thanks
Wow. It actually worked! Thanks, I'm greatful!
Not sure how drain plumbing is done in the UK, but in the US the under-sink drain pvc pipes are fixed together using plastic nuts and washers that come apart easily with force. I’ve unclogged drains with plungers and wouldn’t recommend it after having the pipes blow apart and water everywhere from the filled up clogged sink. Plumbing is done differently everywhere, but something to be mindful of if you are in the US.
Thank you, very useful.
You are a legend. It works. Thank you so much.
