A blocked toilet needs fixing today, not tomorrow

A blocked toilet is one of those problems you can’t put off. Whether it’s a partial blockage that won’t flush properly or a complete obstruction, it’s a health hazard that needs to be sorted quickly.

Most toilet blockages can be cleared on the same visit. We’ll identify the cause, whether it’s a build-up in the trap, something lodged in the pan, or a deeper issue in the drain line, and fix it properly.

If the problem is recurring or more than one toilet is affected, it may point to a deeper issue in the sewer line. We’ll let you know what we find and talk you through the options before any additional work is carried out.

Warning Signs

Signs you have a blocked drain

Don’t ignore these early warning signs – a small blockage can quickly become a costly problem.

Won't flush properly

The toilet flushes but water rises instead of draining, or it drains very slowly.

Gurgling sounds

Gurgling from the toilet bowl when you flush, or when running other fixtures nearby.

Water rises to the rim

After flushing, the water level rises close to the top before slowly receding.

Overflowing bowl

Water spills over the rim when you flush. Stop using the toilet immediately and call a plumber.

Foul smell

A persistent sewage smell from the toilet or nearby drains, even when the bowl looks clean.

Other drains affected

If other drains in the house are also slow or gurgling, the blockage may be in the main sewer line rather than the toilet itself.

Common Questions

Blocked Toilets FAQs

Answers to the questions we get asked most often about blocked toilets in Perth.

Simple toilet blockages start from around $150. More complex jobs involving drain clearing or CCTV inspection cost more. We’ll give you a price before starting.

You can try a plunger for minor blockages, but if that doesn’t work, call a plumber. Using chemicals or excessive force can damage the toilet or push the blockage deeper.

Repeated blockages usually mean something isn’t right – either too much toilet paper, non-flushable items being flushed, or a partial obstruction in the drain. In older Perth homes, tree root intrusion is also a common cause.

Only toilet paper should be flushed. Wet wipes (even “flushable” ones), cotton pads, sanitary products, paper towels and food scraps are common causes of blockages.

Yes, where possible. Call us on 0497 258 334 and we’ll do our best to get to you the same day.

If flow doesn’t fully restore, there may be a partial obstruction or pipe damage further down the line. A CCTV inspection can identify this quickly.
