Toilet Auger Service

A stopped toilet may have a restriction in its trap or farther along the connected drain. A toilet auger differs from cleanout equipment. Tell the provider whether only the bowl rises or nearby fixtures also react during use.

Assess the toilet restriction
Assessment may involve the toilet outlet, suitable auger access, and related drain behavior. The provider selects equipment after reviewing the symptoms.

Check related drain behavior
Do not keep flushing a filling toilet. Sterling Heights lists wipes, including flushable products, among materials that can clog plumbing. Tell the provider if an object may have entered the fixture.

Discuss a stopped toilet with a provider and explain what happens when the toilet is used.
