Risks of a Blocked Toilet
Ignoring a blocked toilet can lead to bigger problems like:
- Foul odors: A blockage in your toilet can cause unpleasant smells that spread throughout the bathroom and home.
- Sanitary issues: Clogged toilets can overflow, leading to unsanitary conditions that are hazardous to your health.
- Plumbing damage: Persistent blockages increase the risk of damage to your pipes and can even cause sewer backups.
- Expensive repairs: Neglecting the root cause of a clog can lead to costly repairs and replacements in the future if not addressed properly.
What Causes Blocked Toilets?
Preventing clogs is the best way to keep your plumbing in top shape. Items that might seem harmless to toss in the toilet can actually cause serious problems. Some of these items are:
- Wet wipes
- Nappies
- Flushable wipes (yes, even flushable!)
- Feminine hygiene products
- Dental floss
- Hair
- Paper towels
- Toys and other foreign objects
Additionally, tree roots and buildup of hard minerals can be another cause of toilet plumbing issues and blocked drains in Brisbane stormwater or sewage systems..

DIY - Do’s and Don’ts
When trying to clear a clog yourself, it’s important to keep a few things in mind. You can try this natural method before calling S&J Plumbing and Gasfitting for toilet repair:
- Pour a bucket of hot water (not boiling) into the toilet from waist height.
- Add two cups of vinegar followed by one cup of baking soda.
- Wait for 30 minutes and then flush.
If this approach doesn’t work, don’t fret – we’re just a phone call away!
What NOT to do:
When you are dealing with a clogged toilet, you should avoid:
- Repeated flushing (it won’t work!)
- Chemical drain cleaners – this can create a dangerous situation for you or the plumber who comes to fix the clog
- Using a wire to clear the blockage (you may cause pipe damage)
