Common Causes of a Clogged Toilet
The blockage in a toilet can be caused by various objects or materials that obstruct the normal water flow and waste through the toilet. Some of these causes include:
Excessive Toilet Paper:
Using an excessive amount of toilet paper in a single flush can overwhelm the toilet’s drainage capacity and lead to a clog.
Objects
Items such as sanitary products, wipes, dental floss, cotton balls, q-tips, or excessive amounts of hair can get flushed down the toilet and become stuck in the drain. This will lead to a clog.
Build-up of Waste and Debris:
Over time, a buildup of waste, grease, or mineral deposits can accumulate inside the toilet drain or in the plumbing pipes. This will narrow the passage and eventually cause a clog.
When a toilet is clogged, it typically results in the water level rising or not draining when you attempt to flush. It’s important to address a clogged toilet promptly to prevent further complications.
