How to unblock a toilet clogged with toilet paper

How to unblock a toilet clogged with toilet paper

Is your toilet clogged with toilet paper? There is nothing more anxiety-inducing than flushing the toilet and watching the water level rise in the bowl. A toilet blocked with paper is one of the most common kinds of toilet clogs. It’s easy to accidentally block the toilet by using too much toilet paper in a single sitting. It can get jammed in the S-bend leading to a clog. If you use expensive, three or four-ply toilet paper it’s more likely that this will clog the toilet as it doesn’t disintegrate as easily as thinner brands. Thankfully, a toilet that’s blocked with toilet paper is one of the quickest and simplest types of clogs to fix without having to hire a plumber.

The reason is two fold. Firstly, people are spending more time at home and the bathroom facilities are being used more regularly. Secondly, an inadequate supply of toilet paper has led some people to use substitutes such as wet-wipes and kitchen roll.
