Bathroom

Having a blocked drain pipe can be very annoying. All the dirty water just won’t go away and all the cleaning you have to do after your plumber made a mess repairing it. All of this can be very stressing, not to mention it can also be time and money consuming.

Therefore, people tend to do their own cleaning of the clogged pipes. There are several methods you can use to do it by yourself, from homemade string hooks to using a soda.

But when neither of those methods actually give any positive effects, the next best way you can use to clear out your drain pipe is to use a drain auger, otherwise called drain or plumber snake.

In further text, we will explain what drain auger is, what types of augers are available out there and how and when to use them.

Is your toilet clogged and you don’t have any tools in the house to fix it? Not even an old toilet plunger, much less a toilet snake?

Before you panic and do something you might regret later on (like calling in a plumber and spending a lot of money), here’s a quick tutorial on how to snake a toilet with a hanger. Sounds like an obscure way to fix a clogged toilet, but hey, it works.

How did I come around to discovering this weird trick, you may ask?

Well, it all started way back in college when I shared a house with three other people. Of course, not everyone is familiar with the concept of throwing out their toiletries in the garbage can and not the toilet. Hence, a massively clogged throne.

Being a clump of broke college students, we couldn’t afford to hire a professional plumbing service to unclog our toilet. We didn’t have a plunger lying around either.

Lo and behold — with the help of some Internet searching– I came across a tutorial on how to use a hanger to unclog a toilet. Now I’m here, ready to share the same wisdom with you.

Nothing is more frustrating than a clogged toilet, especially if it clogs up at just the worst of times.

At some point in your life, you will have experienced a clogged toilet. If you haven’t yet, that’s great!

But as an adult who should be responsible enough to unclog their own toilet, here’s a quick article on how to unclog a toilet with an electric snake.

Say goodbye to plungers, because we have a better unclogger — quite literally — in our hands.

A toilet that flushes slow but is not clogged can be quite frustrating. Weak or slow water movement can fail to create an effective flush.

In a normally functioning toilet, the rapid water movement creates a suction inside the pipe, which serves as the actual flush that pulls down all waste material down the drain. If your toilet is not flushing completely, then waste material may be backed up in the bowl or you may be using more water than usual.

Are you having the same annoying problem with your toilet? In this article, we will talk about the possible home remedies if a toilet flushes slow but is not clogged.

It takes just two things to keep a toilet flushing properly: enough water in the toilet tank, and a clear drainpipe with no blockages at all.

If you happen to lack any or both of these requirements, then your toilet is bound to act up. For example, it can flush slowly and incompletely, causing great inconvenience to you and whoever uses the toilet.

This problem is the most common one I encounter in other people’s houses and in my own. Toilets that are flushing slowly and incompletely are not only annoying, but they can also cause overflow or cause further damage to the toilet. It certainly did cost me a few hundred dollars in plumbing bills when I wasn’t aware of DIY fixes yet.

Let’s be honest, this chore is not something that thrills you, but still, it has to be done. Once you start looking for solutions, you will find numerous answers. A sigh of relief here! Most of them do the job, and sometimes quick and simple fixes just do work.

What to do when the toilet won’t flush as fast as it should? Is there anything you can do quickly to solve it? What about home remedies that could help? Do you need to call a plumber immediately or there’s something that you can do to solve the issue? Let’s find out!

If you have ever experienced that unpleasant moment when your toilet gets clogged because of hard poop, then you know the pain of dealing with it.

This problem can cause some very annoying and extremely unpleasant situations. Clogged toilet tends to even cause flooding in your bathroom, which could be very bad if you don’t work a lot or if you have a very big bathroom, so it would take you a long time to clean everything by yourself.

Apart from that, of course, there is one more downside to this entire situation, and that is the fact that if you didn’t manage to fix the problem alone, you would have to call a plumber, and that, of course, requires a lot of money if the flooding problem is huge.

However, don’t be afraid just yet, there is still hope for you. Luckily, you could fix this problem yourself, by either using some very simple tools used for unblocking the drains, such as a plunger or a drain snake.

But, if you prefer not to do all the physical work required, or if you simply don’t have enough time to do it, you can try a couple of other solutions we will list below.
So, strap in and let’s get on with this list, shall we?

Most of us have experienced that horrible feeling when you flush your toilet and instead of it flushing nicely, it gets clogged.

Sometimes it can also cause flooding, which only adds to our frustration, because then we have to either call a plumber or unclog the toilet ourselves and clean the entire toilet, because of all the mess that had happened.

When we do not have money for a plumber, we tend to try to resolve this issue alone, and the most common way to do it is to unclog the toilet drain with a plunger tool or some drain snake.

But, since it requires some time and things tend to get messy when this type of work is done, first we usually try to unclog the toilet by pouring certain materials into it and hope that it will work out nicely.

Well, we are here today to teach you what you could pour down a toilet in order to unclog it, what are the most common household items you could use for this and if that doesn’t do the trick, what is the best chemical alternative to the homemade remedies.

So, stick with us and let us begin!
