Are you dealing with a blocked toilet bowl in your Lincolnshire property? Don't panic, we've got you covered. At Blocked Drains Lincoln, we understand the urgency and frustration that comes with a clogged toilet. In this article, we'll guide you through the steps to fix a blocked toilet bowl and provide you with expert advice on how to prevent future blockages.

Toilets can get blocked due to a variety of reasons, including excessive toilet paper usage, flushing non-biodegradable items, and mineral buildup in the pipes. In Lincolnshire, the water table is relatively high, which can cause water to flow back into the toilet bowl, leading to blockages.

If you're experiencing a blocked toilet bowl, it's essential to address the issue promptly to avoid further damage to your property. At Blocked Drains Lincoln, our team of experts is equipped to handle all types of drainage issues, including blocked toilets. We use state-of-the-art equipment and techniques to diagnose and fix the problem quickly and efficiently.

Before you start fixing the blocked toilet bowl, it's crucial to identify the source of the blockage. Check if the water level in the toilet bowl is rising or if there's a visible blockage in the toilet drain. If you're unsure, our team can perform a CCTV drain survey to locate the blockage and determine the best course of action.

To fix a blocked toilet bowl, follow these steps:

1. Turn off the water supply: Locate the shut-off valve behind the toilet and turn it clockwise to shut off the water supply.
2. Use a plunger: Plunge the toilet bowl to create suction and loosen the blockage. Make sure to use a plunger that fits snugly over the toilet drain.
3. Use a drain snake: If the plunger doesn't work, use a drain snake to remove the blockage. Feed the snake into the toilet drain and rotate it as you push it further into the pipe.
4. Use 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 before flushing the toilet.
5. Call a professional: If none of the above steps work, it's time to call a professional drainage service like Blocked Drains Lincoln.

To prevent future blockages, follow these tips:

• Be mindful of what you flush down the toilet.
• Use a toilet strainer to catch hair and other debris.
• Regularly clean the toilet bowl and drain.
• Consider installing a low-flow toilet to reduce water usage.
