Hello Sandy, I am sorry to hear that your drain is still plugged even though you have tried natural solutions to unclog it. The clog may be deeper in the pipeline and heavier/thicker than a normal solution can handle. Have you used boiling water in the drain? Has it been snaked? You may have to go ahead and call a plumber to open it :( The good thing about THAT would be that #1 It will finally be open and #2 you can regularly use homemade solutions to maintain it and keep it open in the future. Good Luck Sandy, and I wish I could have given you the answer you were hoping to hear instead of an answer that calls for hiring a professional. Thanks for coming to us here at HOMETALK to try to find help with your dilemma.

1.5 cup soda, put down drain, boil 1 cup viegar, pore on top of sada, wait 30 min before running water down drain

Unscrew the drain cap (if you can). Screw down as if you're closing the drain, then, using regular pliers, turn counter-clockwise to remove the drain cap. Then pull out hair and grime with needle nose pliers. After this, pour boiling water down the drain to clear the rest.

Most easily fixable drain problems are obstructions of clogs in the u trap directly under the sink drain outlet. I usually put about an inch of water in the sink, making sure the drain on the other side of a double sink has the drain strainer closed, then take a bathroom plunger, place over the open drain, hold the other drain down to keep cloised, then vigorously work the plunger up and down. Most times , you will see some pretty grungy crud come back into the sink, but that's the stuff causing the problem.

If that doesn't work, the foot is deeper in the drain lines and may require removing the drain trap under the sink and running a drain snake 🐍 on through until you clear the obstruction. I would suggest putting a pan under the u trap (grease trap) because it will often leak after any contact and may need to be loosened and retightened (by hand) to stop the leaks.
