Professional Toilet Unblocking Services
Blocked toilets are a common problem that can cause disruption, unpleasant odours, and potential health risks if not dealt with quickly. Professional unblocking restores flow, prevents further damage, and ensures waste is removed safely from the property. Southern Drainage Solutions provides reliable toilet unblocking services across the south, supporting both domestic and commercial customers.
What Does Toilet Unblocking Involve?
Toilet blockages are often caused by a build-up of waste, wipes, sanitary products, or foreign objects that restrict flow in the soil pipe or connecting drain. In some cases, underlying problems such as scale, root intrusion, or defective pipework can make the issue recurrent.
Unblocking methods vary depending on the cause. For simple blockages, mechanical tools may be used to clear the obstruction directly. More stubborn problems are resolved with high-pressure water jetting, and if damage is suspected, a CCTV survey may be carried out to identify faults in the pipe.
Timely intervention restores the toilet to full working order, prevents flooding and overflows, and reduces the risk of damage to the wider drainage system.
The main benefits include:
- Fast restoration of toilet use
- Prevention of flooding and health hazards
- Reduced risk of recurring blockages
- Cost-effective compared to major drain repairs
- Long-term reliability when supported by proper maintenance

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the most common causes of a blocked toilet?
Blocked toilets are usually caused by non-flushable items such as wipes, sanitary products, nappies, or too much toilet paper. Scale build-up in older systems can also restrict flow, and in some cases, problems occur further down the soil stack or drainage pipe. External factors such as tree roots or collapsed drains may also lead to recurring toilet blockages. Identifying the cause is essential to apply the correct unblocking method.
Can I unblock a toilet myself?
A basic blockage can sometimes be cleared with a plunger or drain auger. However, DIY methods may only provide temporary relief if the problem lies deeper in the drainage system. Forcing a blockage with inappropriate tools or chemicals can damage the toilet or pipework. Professional unblocking ensures the obstruction is fully removed, reducing the risk of recurrence and avoiding further costs.
How quickly can Southern Drainage Solutions attend a toilet blockage?
We provide a 24/7 call-out service across the south. In urgent cases, engineers can usually arrive within one hour, depending on location. Rapid response prevents blockages from escalating into overflows or property damage, making professional attendance the safest option when facilities are out of action.
What methods are used to unblock toilets?
Our engineers use the most suitable method for the situation. This may include plunging, mechanical clearance using specialist rods, or high-pressure water jetting for stubborn blockages deeper in the system. Where there is a recurring issue, CCTV surveys are carried out to identify hidden faults such as cracked or displaced pipes. Each job is assessed individually to ensure the problem is resolved effectively.
How much does toilet unblocking cost?
The cost depends on the severity of the blockage and whether additional investigation is needed. Southern Drainage Solutions offers fixed price clearances with no call out fees, so customers know the price upfront. More complex blockages linked to damaged pipework may require additional work, but a clear quotation is always provided before any further repairs are carried out.
Can a blocked toilet cause further damage?
Yes. If water cannot flow away properly, it may back up and cause an overflow, leading to flooding and contamination in bathrooms or adjacent rooms. Repeated blockages could also indicate pipe damage that, if left untreated, may worsen over time and cause structural problems. Quick action limits disruption and prevents costly repairs later.
How can I prevent my toilet from blocking again?
Prevention is mostly about good flushing habits. Only toilet paper should be flushed; wipes, sanitary items, and other materials should be disposed of in bins. Regular drain maintenance can also help, especially in older systems. For properties that experience frequent blockages, a CCTV survey can check for defects or root intrusion that might require repair.

Yes. Southern Drainage Solutions operates across the south, including Hampshire, Dorset, Wiltshire, Surrey, West Sussex and Berkshire, as well as surrounding areas. Our wide coverage allows us to provide fast call-outs for emergencies and reliable scheduled visits for routine maintenance.
