Squeaks Plumbing Explains Common Causes of Toilet Clogs

 

Denver, CO -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/29/2019 -- When a toilet stops working, it can create a huge inconvenience for any household, especially when the cause of the clog is unknown. Homeowners in the Boulder, CO area who have a blocked toilet that not even a plunger can fix are encouraged to contact Squeaks Plumbing, Heating & Cooling.

Sometimes, a clogged toilet is due to operator error, such as trying to flush something that a toilet was never meant to handle. Cat litter, for example, is engineered for absorption. That's a good thing in a litter box, but it's a bad thing in a toilet because even a small amount can create a big clog. Speaking of little things causing big clogs, dental floss might seem thin enough to flush, but it has a tendency to wrap itself around larger objects and create wads that can grow to become nasty clogs. Materials such as cotton and facial tissues don't break down and can also lead to clogs.

Basically, the only things that are totally safe to flush are waste and toilet paper. But not all clogs are the fault of homeowners. For example, a clog in a main sewer line can be the result of tree root infiltration, and a clog can also be the cause of a toilet that has taken ordinary wear and tear from frequent use and needs repair or replacement. In that case, homeowners can rely on the toilet installation service of Squeaks Plumbing, Heating & Cooling.
