Blocked toilets can cause havoc in homes and offices. The most common causes of blockages are, foreign objects being flushed, too much toilet paper or defects in the sewerage pipe allowing tree roots to enter.
If the water level in the toilet is higher than usual do not flush as this can cause an overflow which can create flooding. If the toilet is overflowing turn off the water at the cistern.
There are two places in which a blockage can form. Your best case scenario is that the blockage has formed within the toilet itself. This can generally be fixed by simply using a plunger.
