Are you dealing with a toilet blocked with paper in East Lothian? Don't worry, we've got you covered. At Blocked Drains Edinburgh, our team of experts has years of experience in unblocking toilets and drains. In this article, we'll walk you through a simple step-by-step guide on how to clear a toilet blocked with paper.

Before attempting to unblock your toilet, make sure you've turned off the water supply to prevent any further damage. You can do this by locating the shut-off valve behind the toilet and turning it clockwise.

1. Put on your rubber gloves and grab a plunger. Make sure the plunger is properly seated over the clogged drain hole.
2. Plunge the toilet several times, maintaining a good seal. This will help loosen the blockage.
3. If the water level in the toilet bowl starts to drop, you've successfully unblocked your toilet.

1. If the plunger doesn't work, it's time to bring in the drain snake. Feed the snake into the drain hole and rotate it as you push it further into the pipe.
2. Once you feel resistance, it means you've reached the blockage. Hold the snake in place and twist it to break up the paper.
3. Remove the snake and flush the toilet to test if the blockage is cleared.

1. Pour 1 cup of baking soda into the toilet bowl, followed by 1 cup of vinegar.
2. Let the mixture sit for a few hours or overnight. The mixture will help break down the paper and clear the blockage.
3. Flush the toilet to test if the blockage is cleared.
