How to unblock a toilet!
It's not a fun job but someone has to do it...
What you need
A large plunger
thin hosing (for last ditch efforts)
Step 1
Stop flushing it and turn off the water supply (see our article – click here). Bail out as much water as you can with a bucket. Get the plunger out and place the rubber end over the hole at the bottom of the toilet, and pump the handle up and downwards as if your life depended on it, creating suction in the pipe. This usually fixes the problem, just remember, don't flush whatever has appeared without breaking it up first. I know it's grim but you could just block it up again...
Step 2
If the evil deed is still offending then it's time for the thin hosing... it needs to be long and bendy but tough, like very flexible garden hose, or hosing from a local hardware shop. Basically shove the hose down the toilet and try to get it round the bend to break up the blockage. Don't be too aggressive but work at it to get it right round.
If you still find it is blocked then it could be a messy job, so probably best to get a professional in.
