How to fix a toilet clogged with a plastic toilet tissue roller

you will probably have to remove the toilet,the roller is probably stuck on the flange. you can call a plumber but they will probably charge a lot for something you can do by yourself. most home improvement places will be able to walk you through the steps.

Toilet wont flush

Main 3 (or 4) inch drain under the toilet is clogged. Requires removing the toilet and running a "snake" down the pipe. Alternately, you can (carefully) try manually filling the toilet bowl all the way to the top----to apply pressure to the clog....it may push it through.

My Glacier Bay toilet is clogged. I tried plunging, the hot water and dishwasher detergent trick, the baking soda and vinegar trick and even attempted to manually unclog it with my hand. I don't e

The clog must be down in the pipe a ways. You will have to remove the toilet from the floor and use a plumber's snake. It is not as hard as it sounds to do this, but it can be intimidating. Look up how-to videos on you-tube. You will need a new wax ring (when you put the toilet back) and you can rent an electric snake from a tool rental place. They will show you how to operate it. You might be able to get away with a hand-snake, but only if the clog is easy and kind of close. The electric snake might be overkill, but it will work even if you have tree roots causing the clog. Good luck!

Upstairs toliet will not drain tried all kinds of

sounds like if drain cleaner dident work and a snake the nexst step will have to be to put the drain rod /snake in to were it stops , open up cut pipe and fix blockage. use 2 cimberly 110 socket strait cuplers to fix pyp again. bt might want to get a plumber in, and remind the plumber that all 2nd story drainage must have an access i and that he must install a i.e.

the oder opsion is to get the exsperts in . they will *** with rods that have electrick blades on the front end. that will surly clean ur suer line and fix toilet. bt with option 1 u will have prevension and access to ur pipe for if it cloggs up in the future

Plz vote for my advise. and good luck

Problem: when I flush my toilet most often the water swirls around and doesn't flush. I've tried bending a coat hanger and snaking it through the exit hole to see if there was an obstruction. Any...

This is a job for a plumber unless you have a ladder. The vent pipe may be plugged or the trap in the toilet may be plugged up but this requires removing the toilet from the floor which is not that hard. two floor bolts and and turn off the water valve and disconnect the water hose then lift the toilet up and see if there is blockage by poring a gallon of water into the drain pipe. if it backs up you need to snake out the main line. You can rent a electric 25 foot snake for 35 bucks but then you have to reinstall everything plus buy a new wax ring which is about 5 bucks. if the pipe is clean and drains fine then you need to run water into the toilet outside to clear the throat of the toilet if there is no blockage then the vent pipe may be plugged and that you have to get from the roof. Best bet is call a plumber.

Water won't go down the bowl..Seems to flush fine except water wont go down...Nothing is obstructing it..it is not clogged

If water won't go down, you have an obstruction. It might be up inside the trap of the toilet. Use a closet auger to try to remove it. If the toilet trap is clear, you either have a clogged stack or vent.

My Whirlpool Cabrio washer is backing up into and overflowing my toilet every once in a while during the spin cylce. But today, the washer was not running and the toilet overflowed. The toilet is located...

Your problem is not with the washing machine. I suspect that the drain line for your toilet is obstructed further down the line than your snake can reach. If you have a clean out riser to your sewer system, flush the toilet while someone else is watching the flow past the clean out. I would say that renting a sewer line snake at a tool rental like Home Depot would solve your problem. Good luck

Dishwasher will not Drain

Some of that porcelain is in the pump which drains the dishwasher. This is an easy job but you will need a phillips head screw driver.

Remove the lower front panel and you will see the drain hose. The end of the drain hose at the base of the dishwasher is connected to the drain pump. Loosen the clamp and remove the drain hose. Check the hose for pieces of porcelain. Next remove the drain pump and look inside of it. I am quite sure you will find a piece of porcelain in there. Remove it and reconnect everything. That should solve your problem.
