Are you experiencing a blocked toilet in your Lincolnshire home? Don't worry, we've got you covered. At Blocked Drains Lincoln, we understand the frustration and inconvenience that comes with a clogged toilet. In this article, we'll provide you with a comprehensive guide on how to remove a toilet block in Lincolnshire.

Before we dive into the removal process, it's essential to understand what might be causing the blockage. In Lincolnshire, the most common causes of toilet blockages include:

• Excessive toilet paper usage
• Flushing non-biodegradable items, such as sanitary products or wipes
• Grease and fat buildup in the drain
• Tree root invasion in the sewer system

The first step in removing a toilet block is to turn off the water supply to the toilet. Locate the shut-off valve behind the toilet and turn it clockwise to shut off the water supply. This will prevent further water from flowing into the toilet bowl.

A plunger is a simple and effective tool for removing toilet blockages. Make sure the plunger is properly seated over the clogged drain, then push down and pull up quickly to create suction. Repeat this process several times until the blockage is removed.

If the plunger doesn't work, it's time to use a drain snake. A drain snake is a long, flexible rod that can be inserted into the drain to break up any blockages. Feed the snake into the drain and rotate it as you push it further into the pipe.

For more stubborn blockages, try using baking soda and vinegar. Pour 1 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1 cup of vinegar. Let the mixture sit for a few hours, then pour hot water down the drain to rinse.

If none of the above steps work, it's time to call a professional. At Blocked Drains Lincoln, we offer a 24/7 emergency drainage service to help you remove even the most stubborn toilet blockages.
