The majority of toilet blockages are caused by the slow buildup, inside the drainpipe, of toilet paper and things like hand tissues. 

The instant we receive your call for help we will dispatch a team of highly trained plumbers to you, who will immediately begin working to clear the clog from your toilet. Even before the plumbers arrive on the scene, though, we will start helping you; we will, while you are on the phone with us, give you reassurance that the situation will soon be under control, and will also give you important advice that you can follow while you are waiting for our team to arrive. For example, if a toilet does not properly flush the first time you try, we will usually advise you to not try to flush the toilet again. If you follow this advice, you will most likely not be presented with the alarming problem of water overflowing onto and spilling all across your bathroom floor. Another piece of advice we may typically give in such a situation is to turn off the water cock in your bathroom to stop the flow of water to your toilet. 

All Terre Haute Plumbing Services team members thoroughly understand that a blocked toilet is very different than a blocked drain in a sink.

Most clogs in sink drains can be cleared by the simple act of injecting a liquid clog-buster to dissolve the clog, but liquid additives of that nature should usually not be used to dissolve clogs in toilets. That’s because in many cases the additives start generating heat, which can, in the case of certain kinds of toilet bowls, lead to damage. Moreover, the design of many toilet bowls functionally block the effects of such additives, making them powerless to dissolve clogs.

To clear your clog in the fastest, safest and most effective way possible Terre Haute Plumbing Services professionals will bring with them a range of highly specialized tools. 

We have the very latest in snakes, plungers, and toilet augers, and it is possible that in order to clear your clog our technicians will have to use all three kinds of those tools. That’s because although shallow clogs can be cleared by plungers, to clear deeper clots you need cable style plungers, and often flat tape augurs. To clear the most stubborn of the clogs, we may also have to use a high pressure water injection system.
