aLKayeL 0 Report post Posted September 1, 2010 Hi there, I've got a problem with my toilet drain. Its basically clogged and the water goes down really slowly. I was wondering how much would it cost generally to unclog it? Just want to know the average price so that I won't be overcharged. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
forgotten 1 Report post Posted September 1, 2010 Maybe you can try this DIY method that I have been using for years before you call up plumber. Pour baking soda over it. Pour vinegar over it. You will see chemical reaction and bubbles. After bubbles stop, pour hot boiling water over it. Water should be able to run faster into it, as this method unclogs dirt.

RimBlock 0 Report post Posted September 21, 2010 Go to the supermarket. Buy a drain unblocking product (Kiwi - Drainex pipe cleaner, Liq - liquid plumber foam or Mr Muscle - Drain declogger to name a few, all around the $5-$10 range). Follow the products instructions. If the drain is still blocked then call a plumber. RB Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Buy a bottle of the bleach (green Bottle cheaper) and pour half the bottle in. Wait for 1 hr to 2 hr and you will able to see the effect. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
