Assess the Clog and Initial Observation

What happens here

Begin by assessing the severity of the clog. Turn on the faucet and observe how quickly the water fills the sink and then drains. A slow drain indicates a partial clog, often caused by hair and soap scum. Open the cabinet directly under the sink to visualize the P-trap and drain connections. The presenter points out various drain-cleaning products stored in the cabinet, such as a 'Drain Weasel' and 'Drain Rooter,' indicating previous attempts or considerations for drain issues.

Goal: Understand the extent of the drain issue
