Could a handyman fix a clogged Laundry room sink or would I need to call a plumber? I saw recommendations for @xanthippe and Brendan Barlow so I might start with them but any other recommendations in case they are too busy? This week has been crazy

Tried plunger, baking soda and vinegar with hot water and a "plastic snake". So far no luck

@guatemala you can check the trap. How long of a snake did you use?

Try a plunger first. If there is a drain stopper pull it and make sure there isn't a nest of hair connected to it.

If there’s a trap it could be very clogged. I eventually had to pay a plumber to remove it and put in a new one.

Pour coco-cola it will clear drains. Or go to Menards spend $20 on a metal snake
