We cleared the clog, but two weeks later it is blocked again — why?

Because the snake goes through the grease layer without scraping it off the walls. The next time it builds up faster — the diameter is already smaller. The fix is a proper hydro jetting — after that you can forget about cleanings for a couple of years.

Does baking soda with vinegar help?

At an early stage (water drains slowly, but drains) — yes, once a month preventively. Once the plug is full and water stands in the sink — not really, the reaction does not reach it.

We have a double sink, only one side is blocked — why?

The blockage is in the trap of that one section or in the flex line up to the common tee. Often it is enough to remove just that trap — nothing else needs to be touched.

The washing machine drains into the kitchen sink — can that cause clogs?

Yes, if the machine drain is connected to the sink pipe incorrectly (without an air gap, with a sag, straight into the side). Discuss moving the drain point or installing a check valve with the plumber.
