Blocked Drains Lincoln

A blocked toilet can be a stressful and unpleasant experience, especially if it happens at the most inopportune moment. If you're a resident of Lincolnshire, you're not alone in dealing with this issue. At WPS Plumbing & Drainage, trading as Blocked Drains Lincoln, we're here to provide you with expert advice and services to resolve the problem quickly and efficiently.

If you've accidentally blocked the toilet, the first thing to do is not to panic. Avoid using the toilet again until the issue is resolved, as this can cause further damage and make the problem worse. Instead, take a deep breath and follow these steps:

1. Turn off the water supply: Locate the shut-off valve behind the toilet and turn it clockwise to stop the water supply. This will prevent further water from flowing into the toilet bowl.
2. Use a plunger: A plunger is a simple and effective tool to clear blockages. Make sure the plunger is properly seated over the clogged drain hole, then push down and pull up quickly to create suction. Repeat this process several times until the blockage is cleared.
3. Use a drain snake: If the plunger doesn't work, you can try using a drain snake (also known as an auger) to remove the blockage. Feed the snake into the drain hole and rotate it as you push it further into the pipe.

If you're not comfortable using a plunger or drain snake, or if the blockage persists after trying these methods, it's time to call a professional.
