What are the signs of a blocked toilet?

Of course, the most obvious sign of a blocked toilet is the wastewater not flushing away. However, there are also other indications that a smaller blockage is present in the drainage system, which should be dealt with as soon as possible before it becomes a major problem.

This includes water draining slowly after flushing, the water level in the bowl rising quickly when flushing, wastewater overflowing, unusual gurgling in the pipework, and unpleasant smells lingering after flushing.

It’s important not to ignore any of these signs if they are happening in your toilet and to act quickly before a much bigger – and smellier – disaster unfolds in your bathroom.

Contrary to popular belief, simply attacking the blockage with a plunger or toilet unblocking gel rarely solves the root cause of the problem – and can even cause more damage to the drainage system. So it is always advisable to trust an expert toilet unblocking technician to get your toilet back in perfect working order.

What causes a blocked toilet?

You can probably guess what the most common culprit for causing a blocked toilet is, so we will spare you the unpleasant details. Aside from this, the overuse of toilet paper is a common cause for toilet blockages, as are bathroom cleaning or sanitary products being wrongly flushed down the toilet.

Additionally, the layout and condition of a drainage system can also make toilet blockages more likely to occur in some homes.
