Common Causes of Clogged Toilets

Toilet clogs are one of the most common plumbing issues. Here’s what typically causes them:

  • Excessive Toilet Paper Use – Thick, high-density toilet paper can take longer to break down.
  • Flushing Non-Flushable Items – Wipes, paper towels, cotton swabs, and hygiene products should never be flushed.
  • Foreign Objects – Small toys, toothbrushes, and pet-related items can accidentally end up in the toilet.
  • Low-Flow Toilets – Older low-flush models may lack the power to push waste through effectively.
  • Sewer Line Issues – Persistent toilet clogs could indicate a deeper blockage in your sewer line.

If plunging doesn’t work, it’s time to call a professional plumber!   

Our Clogged Toilet Repair Solutions

At The Waterworks, we use the latest tools and techniques to clear toilet clogs safely and effectively.

1. Plumbing Auger (Toilet Snake) Service

  • A flexible, cable-like auger is inserted into the toilet drain to break apart tough clogs.
  • Safer than chemical drain cleaners, which can corrode pipes over time.
  • Effective for removing lodged foreign objects without damaging plumbing.

2. Drain Flushing & Hydro-Jetting

For deep-set clogs or slow-draining toilets, we use:

  • High-pressure water flushing to clear stubborn debris.
  • Hydro-jetting to remove grease, mineral buildup, and tree root intrusion.

If your toilet is experiencing frequent clogs or slow drainage, our team can inspect your sewer line to identify any hidden blockages.  

How to Prevent Toilet Clogs

Preventative maintenance can save you from unexpected plumbing emergencies. Follow these simple tips:

  • Use Toilet Paper in Moderation – Opt for septic-safe, fast-dissolving toilet paper and avoid excessive use.
  • Never Flush Non-Flushable Items – Only toilet paper and waste should be flushed—no wipes, tissues, or hygiene products.
  • Educate Small Children – Teach kids what should and shouldn’t be flushed to prevent accidental blockages.
  • Schedule Regular Drain Cleaning – If you experience frequent toilet clogs, professional drain cleaning can prevent major plumbing problems.

By following these simple steps, you can keep your toilet running smoothly and avoid costly repairs.

We have been using Jonle for 20+ years. Technician (Mark Johnston) performed our annual furnace maintenance this past week. He was on time, courteous and thorough. Once complete, Mark showed us pictures of the inside of our furnace and explained the services he performed, including changing the filter (I provided) and the humidifier pad. Overall we were pleased as always.

I called Waterworks to diagnose a leaking bathroom sink. The tech, Brian, was great communicating his arrival time, prompt and polite, and quickly diagnosed an issue with the old shut-off valves and quoted the price for the repairs.  He was very professional, thorough, and was sure to show me the new working valves in action, ensuring the leak was fixed. The price was exactly as quoted, and the work was completed quickly and to my complete satisfaction.

Had a recent service call from Jonle. They provided a text to let us know we were the first stop of the day at 8am. The service tech showed up right on time and provided the service for us in a friendly and professional manner. We have been a client with them since 2017. We have a service agreement for two visits per year (spring & fall)…..a great value! Great company and great people!

I've been using JonLe for my HVAC services for years and their technicians have always been professional, thorough, and honest. Today, Mark came out to do my annual AC maintenance. He's been here before, and I'm always appreciative of how he goes though everything he inspected and tuned up. He's very knowledgable and offers great advice to keep my system in tip top shape. I would highly recommend JonLe to anyone who needs HVAC service.

I had to have the HVAC compressor replaced. Matt, was the Service Repair man who installed my new compressor. He did an excellent job and had my AC up and running in about 4 hours! I was so thankful! I have used JonLe for over 30 years. They were very accommodating and was able to get my AC up and going on a 90° day! I have always been very pleased with their workmanship and their staff. I was fortunate enough to have the same service man, Dan, for my tune-ups for over a decade. Thank you!

I observed water backing up and fountaining from the outside downspout where it enters the ground during rainfall. To determine whether there was an underground blockage or another drainage issue, I contacted Waterworks for an inspection. The technician, Logan L., reviewed the situation, explained the range of possible causes, discussed potential outcomes, and provided sound recommendations for resolution. He was professional, courteous and very patient in explaining (and even re-explaining). When I need to work with Waterworks again, I would very much like to request Logan.

Look, sometimes your major appliances finally give out and when you’re faced with such situations, what you want is a reliable service that will help get your homestead back to normal operating order. That’s what these technicians (Conrad and Ryan) were able to do for me. They removed an 80gal hot water tank with nearly 2 decades of accumulated sediment out of one helluva tight utility closet in a condo. Installation of new tank was performed seamlessly, and they were a couple cool dudes that made the time go by easily. Took 1 business day to get on the Waterworks’ books. Job wrapped up within 5hrs. Appreciate the quality work.

Our tech was friendly and professional. He did a great job and communicated clearly. He turned off all the lights in the basement when done saving me time to not walk downstairs to turn them off, very conscious. Paperwork was electronic and speedily sent upon completion of the work. The dispatch personnel are pleasant to talk to, they are helpful and responsive. We have been using Jonle for many years and will continue due to the great service. We participate in the annual contract that gives two maintenance tune-ups, on for winter and one for summer. If problems arise the maintenance plan provides availability above non plan members, parts are cheaper and other perks.

I have had the maintenance service for years, and every technician that has come to my house has been on task, courteous, and respectful of the property. I really like that the company sends a photo of the technician and a brief description prior to his arrival. Any work they have done, including installing a new air conditioner and heat pump, has been professional, and I highly recommend them.
