Here are some steps if you're planning on unblocking a urinal yourself -

To unblock a urinal, you can try the following steps:
- Turn off the water supply to the urinal by turning the valve located behind the urinal or at the main water supply line.
- Use a plunger to attempt to dislodge the blockage. If the plunger is not effective, you may need to use a urinal auger, which is a specialized tool for clearing blockages in pipes.
- Pour hydrochloric acid in the urinal drain and allow to sit for 30 minutes before attempting to unblock once again.
- If the blockage is not cleared after trying the above methods, you may need to disassemble the urinal to remove the blockage. This will require some plumbing experience, so it may be best to call a plumber for assistance.
- Once the blockage has been cleared, turn the water supply back on and check for any leaks.
- Clean the urinal with a commercial cleaner or a solution of white vinegar and water to remove any stains or build-up.
Please note that if you are not familiar with plumbing, it is best to call a professional plumber to prevent any damage.

There are several common causes of a blocked urinal:
- Build-up of mineral deposits: Hard water can leave mineral deposits in the pipes, which can eventually cause blockages.
- Foreign objects: Sometimes, items such as paper or gum can become lodged in the pipes, causing blockages.
- Clogs in the trap: The trap, the small curved pipe that prevents sewer gases from entering the building, can become clogged with debris.
- Damage to the pipes: Pipes can become damaged over time due to corrosion, freezing, or shifting.
- Improper use: Urinals are not meant to be used as trash cans. Flushing inappropnoriate items such as sanitary products, paper towels, or cigarettes can cause blockages.
- Poor maintenance: Not cleaning the urinal regularly and not using appropriate cleaning products can lead to blockages.
It is important to regularly maintain and clean the urinal to prevent blockages and prolong the life of the pipes. If you notice a recurring blockage, it is best to call a professional plumber to investigate the cause and prevent it from happening again.
