What Causes a Blocked Toilet?
The cause of a blocked toilet can be both simple and difficult. In many cases, it certainly takes more than just using a plunger! With 247 Plumber Johannesburg by your side, we can get to the bottom of the problem and unclog that throne.
Often a blocked toilet will be caused by the following:
- Too much toilet paper
- Unflushable wet wipes or sanitary products
- Tree roots further down the sewer pipeline
- Damaged or broken pipes
- Objects like toys which should not be flushed
When you are faced with a toilet that’s blocked it’s good to remember what you see in the toilet bowl is just the tip of the iceberg. Repeatedly flushing to try and force the blockage down can just lead to flooding and a nasty mess.
And while the actual clearout is unpleasant, 247 Plumbers Johannesburg are not troubled by a bit of mess. Our aim is to get things flowing again as quickly as possible and ensure the blockage does not reoccur. All of our solutions are long term so you won’t be staring at another clogged toilet a few days or weeks later.

Leaking Toilet Repair Johannesburg
A leaking toilet cistern will not only keep you awake at night but it will be flushing away litres of wasted water! This could be costing you more money than you think!
There are two common reasons why your toilet cistern may be leaking into your toilet bowl, these reasons are, a worn out inlet valve or a perished outlet washer.
Worn out Inlet Valve
The inlet valve which controls how much water enters the toilet cistern can over time become worn out, this can cause excess water to enter the toilet cistern, which then overflows into the overflow pipe. The water that overflows into the overflow pipe can then be seen dribbling down the inside of the toilet bowl.
Perished outlet washer
An outlet washer creates the seal between your toilet cistern and the toilet bowl, over time these washers can perish or form bubbles inside the rubber causing them to leak. When your cistern outlet washer is faulty, water will leak from your toilet cistern, flowing into the toilet bowl.
At 247 Plumber Johannesburg, we always recommend replacing both the inlet valve and outlet washer at the same time, as when one of these parts is worn out, it is common for the other part to be near the end of its working life too.
