The toilet can clog from time to time and some of the causes behind the blocked toilet Hornsey are water pressure which fails in moving the materials with the right force and the attempts of flushing too much toilet paper or waste at once. Even if it is easy to use chemicals when it comes to unclogging the sink, some of the products used may not be used for the toilet because they could end up damaging the bowl or they may not reach the place of the clog because of the design of the toilet. You may need to unclog the toilet while using mechanical means.

If you want to use a plunger, then make sure that there is enough water in the bowl that can cover the plunger. Put the dish detergent in the water found in the toilet bowl and push a plunger straight within the trap of the toilet. You have to put it in the position to ensure that the plunger is able to form a seal on the trap of the blocked toilet. You should repeat the process and when the clog is not fixed, turn to the closest auger.

Get rubber gloves and put a bucket near the toilet. Extend the handle of the auger and insert one end of the auger into the toilet trap. Sheath around one end of the auger so that it can fit the contour of the toilet bowl and trap and also protect the toilet so that it does not scratch. Push the handle until you are able to feel the resistance. The resistance of the augur cable can be pressed against materials that led to a clog. Extend the handle again so that you may remove a cable and clogged material which the cable tip may have brought out. Remove excess material and put it in the bucket.
