Its been two months since this incidence, and i was hoping it would dissolve and one day i would flush it and it would be okay, but that hasnt happened. I have plunged it but that doenst work. We have two bathrooms and dont typically use that one, so it hasnt been a big deal waiting on it to dissolve by itself, but i dont think thats happening. We need that bathroom now though because my kids have a sitter and i dont anyone in my bedroom when im gone, and the bathroom we use is thru there. I hope that it still just dissolves though, but i dont think thats my luck!

  1. its stuck in the s curve or drain line-take toliet up and flush it back wards


  2. well you can go to your local hardware store and buy what is called a closet auger. Its a snake that is made especially for the toilet. you insert it in the toilet and start spinng the cable using the handle. try to either push it out or pull it back. good luck

  3. try the auger and plunging.. The amount to TP is one thing but you also have the cardboard roll that's still there and hasn't dissolved.

    This will take some time and elbow grease keep at it and you'll resolve it soon. Use the auger then plunge, auger, plunge and so on....Repeat this until you clear the clog

    Hopefully it clean otherwise so you may want to hand remove any paper that gets dislodged; you don't want to flush anymore debris than you have to

  4. The closet auger will work but you probably only need a plunger, any hardware store will have one for a couple of bucks.

  5. go outside to the downpipe, take off the plate and start from there, it might do the trick
