Well the place I work we have two toilets that block up most weeks, the disc's on drain rods are to big really you just splash the water out of the pan, snakes don't work you just scratch the bottom of the pan

so does anyone know of a good toilet plunger that works ?

use a mop - not joking - the old fashioned type - creates a good vacuum

Tell the employer to sort it out!! Unless you're employed as the cleaner that is... in that case I've no helpful advice other than go home for a poo.

Wait until the bowl becomes so full of solid waste it forms a pile higher than the rim........

Then slam the lid down....

well the building is a 60 year old school so very old pipes and would be a massive job to rip them out, we tried to have them inspected with a camera down the pipe, but they are so old they could even get the bolts out of the inspection cover ha ha.

Cut the bottom off a 2ltr /lemonade bottle leaving the lid on. Push the cut off end down the toilet with an up and down movement. This normally works and you can put the bottle straight into a carrier bag straight from the toilet to dispose of it. Quick and as clean as possible way to unblock a loo...lol

Yes. Get a black bin liner, Roll a hand towel up into a ball. Hold towel in your hand. Place your hand into bag holding the towel, Plunge the hole at the bottom of the pan vigorously until blockage goes, turn bag inside out when removing your hand and towel or cloth, clean hand clean towel

My guess is a drain has collapsed and the flow through it is almost non-existent, hence the blockages. You could try something like Hipshift (yes, I did spell that correctly...) or One-Shot drain cleaner. They're both 95% sulphuric acid and if they don't do it, the problem isn't a 'blockage' - it's far more serious....

Do not use chemicals in a confined space, as the fumes may over power someone,

I use a long coat hanger to clear any visible blockages ... ie excess toilet paper ...

Pour in boiling water ... leave for a while ...

Then flush

Usually works ...

Drain unblocker good too

The inspection then needs to start from the manhole outside. Quite often you may find that the settlement of the building has crushed the drain and relining may be required. I had similar problems in a block of retirement flats which I managed. It's quite expensive but needs doing properly.

Oh and wetwipes must never be flushed down the loo. they don't disolve and will cause blockages.

cut the disc down in diameter, also as someone said, wet wipes it only takes one or two catch on a drain joint and blockage is the result, as for the drain cover being rusted up cut up with angle grinder and put new one in ay least blockage will be easier to clear

Pour petrol round the edge of the bowl, like you were bleaching, then drop a rat down there, set the petrol alight, he'll soon gnaw through you're blockage

Yes; probably the only way; however, it doesn't necessarily mean digging the drains up; nowadays it is sometimes possible to use a " mechanical mole" which is just a drain size tunnelling machine; it can be used to " bore out" the crushed pipe, and then insert a new plastic liner. Alternatively it can drill a new pipe route, and a new pipe can be installed.

Still expensive, but sometimes you can't dig drains up if they are under buildings

Yes, there's a thing that I pinched from work which has a pump blaster arrangement that you jerk up and down enthusiastically. It blasts pressure down the pipes thereby shifting the log-jam. Works great on showers and sinks as well. I think B&Q have them, not pricey however as they are plastic.

There is a great story about one of these being used in a hotel showering shit all over 20 people at a cocktail party in the suite next door

Yeah but I'll wager he never had his pipe blocked......

Modern bog paper is well known to stick where it shouldn't...

No such problems with Izal....

Biggest mistake is to put kitchen paper/towel down it. It swells as it's made to absorb moisture.... Not nice... specially when your garden is swimming in it thanks to a neighbour five doors 'down the line'....
