First, you need to unplug your washing machine. Then, you gotta locate the drain pipe at the back of the machine. Get a bucket ready, 'cause you're gonna need it. Disconnect the drain hose from the back of the machine, and aim it into the bucket. Let any water still in the machine drain out.

Next, you need to clean out the hose. You can use a plumbing snake to remove anything clogging it up. If you don't have a snake, try using a wire hanger. Once it's cleared, reattach the hose to the machine and plug it back in. Test it out with a load of laundry and see if the problem is solved.

There's a few things you can try here. Get some gloves and a bucket ready. First, try using a plunger on one of the sinks. If there's too much water in the other sink, cover it up with a towel.

If that doesn't work, remove the trap under the sink. It's the U-shaped pipe that connects the sink to the drain. You might need a wrench for this. Put the bucket underneath to catch any water, and carefully remove the trap. Clean it out, then reattach it. Test it out and see if it worked.

If all else fails, you might have to call in a plumber. But hopefully, one of these methods worked for you.

So there you have it, folks. Some simple and effective ways to clear up those pesky clogged drains. No need to stress and no need to spend unnecessary money on a plumber. Give these a try and let me know if it worked for you.
