Blocked Toilet / Drain Toowoomba
Blocked Toilets and Drains Toowoomba
Common causes of blockages
Blocked toilets can be caused by a number of issues. Often they are caused from too much toilet paper being used, or something that shouldn’t be flushed being flushed. Prevention is always the best cure when it comes to blocked toilets.
Remember, if you have a blocked toilet, don’t keep flushing to try and clear your clogged toilet when unblocking a toilet. This could cause it to overflow and flood the bathroom.
What to do if you have a blocked toilet/drain
What if, despite your best efforts, the toilet becomes blocked? First thing you should do is grab a plunger.
You should always have a plunger on hand at home, just in case the toilet blocks. Quite often, all it takes is some vigorous, careful plunging and the problem passes.
You should feel a degree of resistance if you are doing it properly. Hopefully, after about five to ten plunges, you should hear some movement in the pipes. When you hear the sound from the pipes, take the plunger out and check the water levels. If it has worked the water should be back to the normal height. If not, then your blockage is more severe and is going to need more work.
