What to Do Right Now

  1. Stop flushing. Each flush adds more water to the bowl.
  2. Turn off the water. The valve is on the wall behind the toilet. Turn it to the right until it stops.
  3. Use a flange plunger. This type has a soft flap that fits into the toilet drain. Push down slowly, then pull up hard.
  4. Skip chemical drain cleaners. They often do not work on toilet clogs, and the water left in the bowl can splash on you later.
  5. Call if water keeps rising or if other drains in the house start to back up.

What to Do If the Toilet Is Overflowing

  1. Stop the water in the tank. Lift the lid off the tank and push the rubber flapper at the bottom down.
  2. Shut off the valve. Turn the valve on the wall behind the toilet to the right until it stops.
  3. Protect the floor. Lay old towels around the base.
  4. Check the other drains. If dirty water is also coming up in a tub or floor drain, the main line may be blocked. Keep kids and pets away and call (310) 340-1545.

Why Toilets Clog

  • Wipes. Many wipes, even ones labeled "flushable," do not break down like toilet paper.
  • Too much paper at once. A big wad can stick in the curved part of the toilet.
  • Things that fall in. Toys, phones, cotton swabs, dental floss and hygiene products.
  • Buildup in the pipe. Hard water deposits can make the opening smaller over time.
  • A main sewer line clog. Roots or buildup farther down can make every toilet slow.

Is the Clog in the Toilet or the Main Line?

Check your other drains:

  • Only one toilet is slow: the clog is likely in that toilet or the pipe right below it. A toilet auger fixes this.
  • The tub gurgles or fills when you flush: the clog is likely in the main line.
  • Every toilet is slow: the main sewer line may be blocked.
  • Water comes up in a shower or floor drain: stop using water and call.

A main line clog needs main sewer line cleaning, not a plunger.

How We Clear a Clogged Toilet

We start with a toilet auger. It has a covered tip that protects the porcelain bowl while the cable reaches the clog. If something solid is stuck, like a toy, we may need to lift the toilet off the floor to remove it from below. If more than one fixture is backing up, we clean the main line and can do a camera inspection to find the cause.

Toilet Clogs in Older Torrance Homes

About 8 in 10 Torrance homes were built before 1980, and about 6 in 10 were built in the 1950s and 1960s. Homes from that time often have cast iron drain pipes under the floor. Over the years, rust and scale build up inside them. The pipe gets narrower, so paper and waste catch more easily.

If a toilet in an older home clogs again and again, a camera inspection can show the inside of the pipe.

Housing figures: U.S. Census American Community Survey data, as shown on Point2Homes.

Toilet Clogs in Offices, Restaurants and Shops

Many business restrooms use flushometer toilets. These have no tank. A valve on the wall sends a fast rush of water into the bowl, so a clog can make the bowl overflow quickly. Shared restrooms also get more paper towels, wipes and hygiene products.

If more than one restroom backs up, the clog is likely in a shared line. We clear restroom toilets and the lines behind them. See commercial drain cleaning.

How to Keep Toilets From Clogging

  • Flush only toilet paper and human waste.
  • Keep a small trash can in each bathroom for wipes and hygiene products.
  • Teach kids not to flush toys or paper towels.
  • If a toilet clogs again and again, have the line checked.

How Much Does Clogged Toilet Repair Cost in Torrance?

The price depends on the job. Things that change the cost:

  • One toilet or several
  • Where the clog is
  • If an object is stuck
  • If the toilet must be lifted
  • Main sewer line involvement
  • Camera inspection
  • Home or business
  • Time of day

Clogged Toilet Repair FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you fix a clogged toilet today in Torrance?

Service is available 24/7, with a 30-minute response for urgent calls. Call (310) 340-1545.

What should I do if my toilet is overflowing?

Push the flapper down inside the tank, then turn the valve behind the toilet to the right. If water is also coming up in other drains, call right away.

Why does my toilet keep clogging?

Wipes, too much paper, buildup in the pipe or a problem in the main sewer line can cause repeat clogs. If it keeps happening, the line should be checked.

Is it safe to use drain cleaner in a toilet?

Chemical drain cleaners often do not clear toilet clogs, and the water left in the bowl can splash on you. A flange plunger or toilet auger is a safer first step.

Why does my bathtub gurgle when I flush?

Gurgling in the tub when you flush often means the main line is partly blocked. Air and water are pushing back through the nearest drain.

Are flushable wipes safe for my toilet?

Many wipes labeled "flushable" do not break down like toilet paper. It is safer to put wipes in the trash.

Do you clear toilet clogs in businesses?

Yes. We clear restroom toilet clogs for offices, restaurants, shops and other commercial properties.
