Four Ways to Fix a Blocked Toilet




One of the many catastrophic events that could happen in your bathroom is a blocked toilet because it is a necessity for any household that is used regularly throughout the day. However, it can be a pretty quick fix and there are multiple solutions to unblock a toilet without having to call a Plumber Waterloo which should be your last solution in this task. The following four tips should help you unblock your toilet:
You can try unblocking your toilet with drain opening chemicals if your toilet bowl is not overflowing since this should help break down or soften the materials currently causing the blockage. What you should do in this case is pour the chemical down the toilet bowl and let it sit for a quarter of an hour as this will help soften the blockage. An indication of whether is it working or not is if the water level of the bowl is going down which indicates the blockage is moving. Once the water level is low, you simply only have to flush the toilet and that should clear out the blockage.
One of the most common solutions to a blocked toilet is the plunger which is very effective if there is an immediate blockage like a hand towel. Also, if the toilet overflow has been caused by something more organic, a plunger could also be used. However, sometimes the plunger doesn’t work and you will require another solution.
If you live in a less built up residential area, unfortunately large tree root systems could be the cause of your problem. This means that tree roots grow into your sewing pipe which can cause enormous damage to you underground pipes. It is crucial you call Plumbers Waterloo to have this treated immediately.
Alternatively, the blocked toilet could be the result of your plumbing system failing and may require a Plumber Waterloo to replace your pipes. Plumbers Waterloo are a trusted plumbing business who have a team of experience plumbing professionals who can treat any plumbing problem for an affordable price.
