When faced with a blocked toilet, many homeowners react by flushing the cistern repeatedly. Unfortunately this is unlikely to solve the problem and could cause the toilet to overflow and flood the entire bathroom. If this happens an emergency plumber is usually the only option left open.
Plunge
A plunger is often the best tool for clearing a heavy blockage such as toilet paper. Pull on a pair of gloves and goggles before pushing the plunger all the way to the bottom of the toilet bowl, then pump backwards and forwards repeatedly.

Drain inspection covers are usually located outside the house; lift the one nearest to the toilet to see whether a chamber is blocked. If you can see a blockage and you cannot easily dislodge it from the drain, then calling a plumber is advised.

Remember; all cleaners are different and you should follow the instructions printed on the bottle when using. Always wear gloves and goggles when using chemical solutions and ensure the bathroom is well-ventilated before proceeding.
