A few weeks back I discovered the water wasn't draining away as quickly from my bathroom sink. I couldn't see any hair clogging up around the plug area, but over the next couple of days it got worse with water taking longer and longer to drain away, so on my day off from work I bought a plunger and used it thinking that it would do the trick. However, this seemed to have little effect at all other than actually making it worse, as the water seemed to be barely draining away at all after this. I had heard about products you can buy which you pour down the sink to clear a blockage, but had never actually used any before and so I was a little sceptical as to ...  Read the complete review

I'd heard told that when you are pregnant your hair grows extra luscious and thick. I was somewhat peeved when this did not happen to me. I had also heard told that after you have your baby you lose this extra hair, and I was really, really peeved when this did happen despite it not having got noticeably thicker during pregnancy. Anyway, it was the copious quantities of my hair coming out when I washed it that led to me being stood in the shower one morning, slowly realising that the water was not draining away as usual but was instead sloshing about my ankles in an unpleasant, tepid, lathery mess. I scooched about in the plug hole, removed a big clump of ...  Read the complete review

My family seem to think we live in America and have one of those whirring waste disposal units in our sink and I've become thoroughly fed up with fishing floating food and random junk out of a backed up sink. However once the gunk has been fished out our sink usually empties fast. There are some occasions though when the sink starts to run slow and finally gives up the ghost, this Christmas was one of those times. We tried our trusty basic plunger, and one of those snakey things that burrow down through your pipes, then the big guns of a fancy pants plunger that you fill with water before using, half a bottle of fairy liquid and boiling water, soda crystals ...  Read the complete review

Well with two 4 year olds who like to dump their dinner dishes etc in their sink with scraps off food on them it was no surprise that my kitchen sink had developed a bit of a stench. On my last shopping trip I picked up Mr Muscle's Kitchen and Bathroom Drain Gel. I hadn't used this particular product before but when I purchased it was it was reduced to £3 instead of the usual £3.99. The drain gel comes in a bright orange 500ml plastic bottle with a built in handle. It clearly states on the front of the bottole it is a Mr Muscle product and it is Kitchen and Bathroom gel which 'unblocks your drain quickly, starts working instantly, eliminates bad odours and is ...  Read the complete review

We get continual problems with slow draining water in our bathroom sink and shower mainly due to my long hair finding it's way down the plughole and slowly building up in the pipe. After finding the water was once again starting to drain slowly in our shower I bought the Mr Muscle Drain Gel in the hope of clearing the blockage before the drain ended up blocked completely. The Mr Muscle comes in a bright orange plastic container which contains 500ml of the product according to the instructions for blockages or slow draining water you should use the entire bottle and leave for 15 minutes or for severe blockages you can leave it in ...  Read the complete review
