Stinky sink drains are a drag…and disgusting. Today we talk about how to tackle this problem and remove the smell. The first step is to make sure your P-traps are full of water. If your tub, shower, or vanity haven’t been used in awhile…run water for 1-2 minutes. This might solve your problem. The second reason your bathroom or kitchen may stink is due to biofilm. Unfortunately you have to remove the P-Trap and pipes from the vanity. Check for gunk in the pipes. Scrape any sediment from the wall pipe. Then push several paper towels down the sink drain and related pipes. The last step is to soak these sink parts in warm water and bleach. Finally, put all the pipes back together and check for leaks. Then pour a pot of hot water down the drain. This will put the death nail in your stinky drain.
