    Toilet snake getting a workout!
    It's a once-a-week affair, and is getting annoying very fast. :mad: At least one of the two toilets gets clogged every week. I run the snake, and they're good for another week. The foundation is a concrete slab. Could the plumber who put in the plumbing used too-small PVC for the toilets?

    Thanks for any help,
    David

    How much toilet paper are you flushing? And what sort of paper? The thick quilted stuff will block small gauge drains quite easily!

    Doesn't matter. It can happen without any. And the consistency of the solids don't matter either. :confused:
