Few years ago, the basement bathroom tub and "sanitary" tub in the
laundry room were clogged. I saw the plumber clear the bathroom tub
clog with a snake. Didn't see how he cleared the laundry tub but he
spent some time on the roof.

Now the basement bathroom sink needs to be unclogged. I was thinking
about snaking it.

Do I have to get on the roof first, and, if so, what procedures should
be followed? Thanks again for your help.


I used to use water pressure to unclog drains when I had apartments.
Just stick a hose in the drain, pack a wet face cloth around the hose
plugging the drain, apply pressure and turn on the water. Blows the clog
out every time.


You forgot to mention sealing any overfill holes in a sink with another
wet rag when doing that.
