Good morning all,
I've got a problem that's really worrying me at the minute and has been for about 2 weeks now. I've tried fixing the problem using information I've found on the internet but have been unable to, and have hitherto not made a thread detailing my specific situation because I'm worried about what the answer might be (i.e. spending a lot of money which I don't have!) :o
Basically, a couple of weeks ago my girlfriend stayed over in my room at my university accommodation, and she spent a long time in the bathroom 'beautifying', by which I mean waxing or shaving or brushing her hair or something; I really don't know. Since then, my shower has been draining painfully slowly, to the point where I can't properly shower because the unit begins to get too filled. I'm guessing there's a lot of hair in there, and I'm pretty sure it crops up sometimes *winces* :o:eek:
I tried using a plunger hoping it would suck it up, hot water, bleach and a coat hanger in sheer desperation, but I just cannot solve the problem :( The problem is that because it's university accommodation, it's just been built really cheaply. So, it's just like a step in rectangular shower unit and the drain is in the middle and basically cemented all the way around, so I can't take anything off if you see what I mean. I think it's impossible to actually access the hairs, which I presume to be far down because I can't see them.
I'm really worried because it's university accommodation and they're going to charge me an arm and a leg for this- it's happened to someone before and they don't even let us find our own cheap plumbers!! :mad:
I just thought I'd ask on here as a last shot. If anyone has ANY ideas, then I'd be really grateful. I'll try ANYTHING and I'm willing to buy anything.
Thank you :)
