Blocked Toilet
If the water level in the toilet bowl is too high, too low or slow to drain away, then it is likely that it is just a blocked toilet. A Drainz technician will investigate the problem and diagnose the right equipment to use to clear the blockage. A Drainz technician will use a drain rod to plunge your toilet to push toilet paper and excrement down the pipes.
If there is no water in your toilet bowl, then it is likely that there is a blocked drain somewhere on your property causing the problem. A Drainz technician will use a high pressure hydro jet to unblock any drains that are causing the blockage in your toilet. We recommend that you keep the lid on the toilet seat closed to safeguard leakage.
Signs of a blocked toilet
Signs to look out for that indicates you have a blocked toilet and need a drain unblocker are:
- water is slow to drain away or fills up high
- there is lots of toilet paper
- there is no water in the toilet bowl
- water or sewerage overflows from toilet bowl or shower
- other bathroom fixtures (shower, vanity basin) may also drain slowly
- there is a bad smell

Please do not keep flushing as the toilet bowl will overflow.
