How to Fix a Blocked Toilet
|
Blocked toilets are one of the most common issues that arise in the long list of domestic plumbing emergencies. The good news is, that most of the time you can fix this issue yourself, here is how:
Flush again, sometimes flushing the toilet for the second time clears up the issue. However, if this ends up raising the water level in the toilet instead, some more serious action needs to be taken. The toilet is now full of water so do not flush it again, it might even be a good idea to place some towels around the toilet to prevent a bigger mess in case it overflows. |

Wait a little bit until the water level goes down a bit and try one of these methods:
You will notice some reaction and fizzing, this means it is working. Leave it overnight if possible and hopefully the blockage is dissolved by the morning.
If this still did not help, there is nothing more than you can do and you will need the assistance of a professional plumber.

- See if you can clear the blockage manually, Use long rubber gloves and wear clothes that can get wet and dirty just to be safe. You may be able to reach the obstruction and pull it out. We wouldn't not be surprised if it’s a children's toy as this is actually the most common cause for a blocked toilet.
- If you can’t reach the blockage with your hand, it is time to use the good old plunger. Plungers can do a good job at clearing up any blockage. If you haven’t used a plunger before, just type “how to use a plunger” into YouTube or Google.
- If the plunger lets you down as well, you can try vinegar and soda mixture. The cocktail goes like this, pour these ingredients into your toilet in the following order:
- One cup of baking soda
- Two cups of vinegar
- A dash of dishwashing liquid for lubrication
- Some boiling water to speed the process
You will notice some reaction and fizzing, this means it is working. Leave it overnight if possible and hopefully the blockage is dissolved by the morning.
