Some Helpful Information for a Blocked Toilet Kanata

Where to Shut Off Your Water

This is an important piece before we even get into tips for your toilet. Everybody needs to know where your main water source is located and how to shut it off as well as all fixtures in your home. Your property line is most often where you will see the valve that allows water to enter the property. Have a quick look and know how to turn it off. As for your toilet and sink fixtures you will find them behind and below respectively. If you wind up with a plumbing emergency, you will be grateful to know where to go and what to do! Now, how about some home toilet de-clog methods…

Make Your Own Snake

You will require gloves, but you can make your own mini auger:

  • Straighten out a wire hanger so it’s like one long rod
  • Take an old rag and tie it around one end of the rod to avoid damage/scratches on your bowl
  • Break up whatever is clogging your bowl by dropping the covered rod into it to loosen it up
  • Remove what you can manually out of the toilet and flush the rest with boiling water

Au Naturel De-Clogging

  • Retrieve a cup of baking soda and your vinegar jug from your kitchen
  • Dump the baking soda into the toilet; then generously dump vinegar all over the baking soda
  • There will be a mini explosion of sorts – give it 15 minutes
  • Now dump boiling hot water down the toilet, and give it another five minutes
  • Flush toilet once – if it’s all clear you’re back in business!

Say No To Draino

We know this seems crazy as we are professionals and Draino is on the market specifically to declog situations like a blocked toilet but buyers beware: Draino is an easy fix with possible long term consequences. Its powerful chemicals will most likely break up your clog, but they are also very capable of damaging porcelain and pipes. Use Draino a few times and you may well have a much bigger and more expensive issue than a blocked toilet.
