Hi,
this can be a terriblly
--- thilfy job. there is no getting round the fact that if a professional
toilet plunger is not working and particularly a snake, you may have a serious
problem. Do not try and use a sink plunger to unblock a toilet, it will not
work. A proper toilet plunger has a long handle, about 3 or 4 feett long and
is hard to push in to the pan of your toilet. The next step, if niever of
these things work, is to find the soil man hole cover and lift it, this is
usually in your garden, somewhere, but could be in your naghbour's garden, and
all so, could be on the pavement outside your house; this all depends on your
drain layout. Once you find this, the first thing you try is the snake from
that end, his may or may not work. If it doesn't, you should buy, rent, or
imploy somebody with a air blasting tool, which basicly blast water and
compressed air in a high powered jet to try and remove any obstructions.
Beware, if the snake or blast methods works, and the
soil pipe is full, and it is full to the upper floor, be prepared to be
covered in all kind of shit. I mean! it!, be prepared, it has actually
happened to me. Once it starts moving there is no stopping it and you are
usually confine in a tiny man hole so the shit hits the fan as it were, and the
fan is usually you.
Warm regards.
Martin Webster.

Carl, don't give up on the plunger quite so soon. Once at work I needed about
10 minutes of slow methodical plunging to how should I put it, break up a jam.
The next step if this fails is something like a snake and things get harder
from there.
