Plumbing problem most people experience

One of the most common problems everybody has with plumbing is a clogged toilet.  Sometimes it is easy and a plunger will clear it.Then some times it will be needed that a plumber be the one to fix it.  But for most people I am going to share a few tips that will hopefully fix it so you won’t need a plumber.

Now these are some tricks I have picked up running my Temecula plumber business.But these are steps that most homeowners will be able to do.It doesn’t necessitate the use of expensive equipment.You aren’t required to be expert in plumbing to know how to fix it.  Just follow some directions and you can fix it.

First of all you want to try a plunger.  Everyone has a plunger and most clogged toilets can be freed from it.  The most effective plungers have a fold out cup.That cup is what you are going to fit into the toilet trap.  That allows a good suction.Then all you are going to need to do is use an even back and forth motion.  This should clear the toilet.

Next after the plunger is using a toilet auger.How it looks is it has a J shaped tube and a cable attached.  Sort of like a drain snake.  It is one of my most used tools for my Murrieta plumber service.  They can be purchased at most hardware stores.What you will do is take the end of the auger and put it into the toilet.Then you take the handle and push it in while you crank it clockwise.  This loosens any debris and clears the toilet.

These two pieces of equipment should be able to accomplish it.  But of course if it doesn’t then you will need a good plumber to come out.  It is more expensive then doing it yourself. But if you can’t do it, it is well worth it to get your plumbing fixed.Because when the toilet of the house is clogged it isn’t very pleasant.Plus it will lead to a lot of other problems.
