Blocked Drains Edinburgh

Blocked toilets can be a nightmare, especially when it's a poo blockage. If you're experiencing a blocked toilet in East Lothian, don't panic. At Blocked Drains Edinburgh, we've put together a step-by-step guide on how to unblock a poo blocked toilet.

Before you start, make sure to put on a pair of rubber gloves to protect your hands from bacteria and germs. If the water level in the toilet bowl is high, use a bucket to scoop out some of the water to prevent overflow.

The first method to try is using a plunger. Make sure the plunger is properly seated over the blocked drain, then push down slowly and steadily until you feel resistance. Hold for a few seconds, then lift up. Repeat this process several times. If the blockage is minor, this method may work.

If the plunger doesn't work, try using a drain snake (also known as an auger). Feed the snake into the toilet drain and rotate it as you push it further into the pipe. This can help break up any blockages.

If the above methods don't work, try using baking soda and vinegar. Pour 1 cup of baking soda into the toilet bowl, followed by 1 cup of vinegar. Let the mixture sit for a few hours or overnight, then try flushing the toilet.

If none of the above methods work, it may be time to call in the professionals. At Blocked Drains Edinburgh, we use high-pressure water jetting to clear even the toughest blockages.

Once the blockage is cleared, use a mop and bucket to clean up any spills or mess. Make sure to disinfect the toilet and surrounding area to prevent the spread of bacteria.
