Using a Plunger to Unblock Your Toilet

If you are experiencing a minor blockage in your toilet, you may be able to resolve the issue yourself using a plunger. Here is a step-by-step guide to using a plunger to unblock your toilet:

1. Fill a bucket with water and pour it gently into the toilet bowl. This will create pressure and help to dislodge the blockage.

2. Use a plunger to create suction and push the blockage through the toilet trap. Make sure the plunger is inserted firmly into the toilet bowl to create a seal.

3. Pump the plunger up and down vigorously, creating a suction that will dislodge the blockage. Be careful not to splash water onto the floor or yourself.

4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 several times until the blockage is cleared. You may need to use more water from the bucket to fill the toilet bowl between attempts.

5. Flush the toilet to ensure that the blockage has been cleared. If the toilet remains blocked, it is time to call in the experts at Drainage Cumbria.
