KNOW WHEN TO CALL
When to Call an Expert for a Clogged Toilet
A pesky clog your plunger is unable to remove is not the only sign you should call a professional. Clogged toilets are common, and most of the time, it’s simply a clog. However, there are cases in which a clogged toilet is a small sign of something worse. When your toilet presents any of the following problems, you may have a bigger problem:
- Regular clogging problems
- Toilet water drains slowly
- Sewage or wastewater begins filling the toilet
The signs above are problems associated with the overall health of your plumbing system. It likely means a problem with your sewer line. If that is the case, your clogged toilet is the least of your problems. That is when you should contact ASAP Plumbing Experts for an inspection.
GO-TO METHODS
How to Fix a Clogged Toilet
We all go for the plunger when a toilet becomes clogged. For most of us, this simple tool works well. Unfortunately, that isn’t always the case. Some clogs can be extremely difficult to remove. It may require a more complicated tool such as a drain snake. Drain snakes, also known as hand augers, are made of flexible lines with a hook or screw-like shape on one end. They’re effective in dislodging and removing clogs from your drains, including the toilet! Most drain snakes found at your local hardware store only go a few feet. Our team has access to longer drain snakes, allowing us to reach further down to reach the clog.
If our drain snake is unable to remove the clog, we’ll inspect your plumbing system for another problem. It is likely tied to your plumbing system as a whole or even the sewer line. From there, we’ll implement a solution that fits your situation.
