Toilet Unclogging

Common Causes of Toilet Clogs

Excess Toilet Paper
Using too much toilet paper at once can overwhelm the plumbing and cause blockages.
Foreign Objects
Items accidentally flushed, such as hygiene products, wipes, toys, or sanitary items, can create severe clogs.
Hard Water Deposits
Mineral buildup in pipes over time can narrow the passage, making the toilet prone to clogs.
Aging or Faulty Plumbing
Older pipes, low-flow toilets, or misaligned plumbing can exacerbate clogging issues.

Signs Your Toilet is Clogged

Slow or incomplete flushing
Water rising in the bowl but not draining
Gurgling noises from the toilet or nearby drains
Recurring clogs despite attempts to clear them
Unpleasant odors coming from the toilets
