It's common for sinks to get clogged up every now and then.<\/p>\n

During an episode of Sort Your Life Out, Stacey Solomon's BBC One show, the housework whiz revealed you don't even need to call a handyman in.<\/p>\n

He said: "Often, with blocked sinks, the first thing you might think is calling out a plumber.<\/p>\n

"But this can actually be a really easy task you can do yourself, quite simply."<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

To banish blockages, he recommends "gently prizing off" the U-bend of your sink.<\/p>\n

You can then pull out any gunk caught up in the tube.<\/p>\n

Demonstrating the chore, he explained: "This is a combination of hair and soap."<\/p>\n

Next, it's time to "give [the U-bend] a good scrub" with a toothbrush to get into every nook and cranny.<\/p>\n

Then simply place the U-bend back in position and tighten it up again.<\/p>\n

Ewan added: "Now look how quick that water is draining!"<\/p>\n
