If your cistern water is slow to drain or begins to overflow, it could mean there?s a blockage?you?ve got a blocked toilet.
Blocked toilets caused by floating objects like toilet paper are easy to detect and remove. However, various reasons can remain undetectable, especially if you have no experience with plumbing. It?ll be to your advantage if Sydney blocked drain plumber specialists can perform CCTV drain inspections and blocked drain clearing processes for your blocked toilets in Sydney.
Mineral deposits from hard water can settle and solidify (known as calcification) in the pipes. They can hinder the movement of waste, causing blocked toilets.
Not only that, but blocked toilets can also stem from unwanted objects like too much toilet paper, wet wipes, razor heads, hair, soap scums, and detergent flushing down the pipe. Over time, the undissolved substances will block the pipe, narrowing the passage for waste removal.
It would help if you were careful about dropping anything in the toilet bowl that?s not meant to be flushed in the first place. To prevent blocked toilets, you must dispose of hygiene products like dental floss, napkins, diapers, and tissues appropriately.
Another common cause behind blocked toilets is worn-out pipes or parts (like washers). Heavy wear and tear from regular use, corrosion, or inclement weather can damage the pipes, slowing the flushing. In such cases, the clog will build up over time until the point where waste movement is completely ceased. And trust us ? you don?t want to deal with the mess of cleaning such waste without adequate preparation!
Ways to Unclog Blocked Toilets
A toilet system has many parts and components to it. And it can seem very overwhelming when you try to fix blocked toilets or leaks yourself. Although not practical, it?s workable. You can fix the problem on your own.
1. Wait it out.
Patience always pays off. If you wait a while, the water in your toilet exerts pressure on the clog in the drain as it attempts to leave, which could dislodge the clog on its own.
2. Pour hot water down your clogged toilet.
It can sometimes break down the soap scum or other residue, holding the clog together and clearing the blockage.
3. Use a plunger.
Plunge vigorously. However, depending on how deep the cause of the blockage is, plunging may be difficult. The success rate is low when it comes to unblocking toilets.
4. Use a plumber?s snake.
Like the plunger, you can remove the clog using a hook, a plumber?s snake, or a makeshift wire coat hanger.
5. Use baking soda and vinegar.
These are your natural alternative to chemicals. Their components can help break down the residue in your drain.
6. Use a chemical drain cleaner.
These chemicals dissolve the hardened minerals, causing the blockage. Be sure to protect yourself when using this method. Chemicals are toxic and health hazards.
7. Use dish soap.
Dish soap can break down grease, dirt, and grime. Put a cup or so of dish soap into the toilet bowl.
