Blocked Drains Edinburgh

Blocked toilets can be a nightmare, especially when you don't have a plunger to hand. If you're in East Lothian and facing this issue, don't worry, we've got you covered. At Blocked Drains Edinburgh, we've put together a step-by-step guide on how to unblock a blocked toilet without a plunger.

One of the most effective ways to unblock a toilet without a plunger is to use a mop and a bag. Yes, you read that right! This method may sound unconventional, but it's worked for many people in the past.

1. Put on a pair of rubber gloves to protect your hands from bacteria and other contaminants.
2. Take a mop and insert the head into the toilet bowl, making sure it's fully submerged in water.
3. Wrap a plastic bag around the mop head, securing it with a twist tie or a rubber band.
4. Push the mop head down into the toilet bowl, applying gentle pressure. The bag will help to create suction, which can dislodge the blockage.
5. Hold the mop in place for a few seconds, then pull it back up. Repeat this process several times until the water starts to drain.

If the above method doesn't work, try using hot water to help loosen the blockage. Pour a bucket of hot water into the toilet bowl, then repeat the mop and bag method. The hot water can help to dissolve any grease or debris that's causing the blockage.
