Thanks, watching you struggle gave me the push I needed to apply to use my auger to get through. I did it last night first time unsuccessfully but tried again after watching your video and I was successful in unclogging my toilet. Saved me a service call from the plumber...:) Thanks again!
Thanks great video !!!! Who could possibly give this video a thumbs down . He was honest and didn’t do no before and after edit version. Awesome 👏🏾
Thank you for sharing your knowledge. My son flushed a wash cloth and He told me right away. I was able to retrieve it with a Rigid toilet auger. I am very grateful. Thank you so much!
Oh my, thanks so much. This helped me figure out how to use my Auger and clear my line!!! You have literally SAVED THE DAY! Thanks, again!
Finally a video that shows to how clear a clog! Most videos only show how how to use the tool. Thank you!!
Thank you. Just pulled out a plastic paint bottle my littke guy flushed down. I was snaking it the wrong way. Your video saved me. Thank you and God bless
Thanks a lot, great video. I used a smaller auger (non professional) and it worked the exactly the way you explained.
Thank you so much. Very helpful. I never used an auger before and you showed me how to do it and it's so simple thank you so much.
As always, thank you for sharing your knowledge! I have one of those smaller augers for cleaning the shower drain. They are amazing.
I just started doing rooter work side work in nyc working my way to open my own small business because 40 hours a week of pipefitting and plumbing isn't enough to cover my family comfortably and it's crazy what people flush in their toilets lol. Liked n subbed. Salute for showing people how to save some money instead of panicking and spending up to 500$. ✌
Thanks for sharing your knowledge very helpful
Loved ❤it! Was very helpful that you couldn’t clear it on your first attempt. So we could see what we should do if the drain doesn’t unclog right away. Thank you. Awesome video.
wow...i did it! I unfortunately scratched the porclein but I CLEARED the blockage without using the additional 3 ft. Thank you
I have the same tool you use and I watched your video and removed the towel in less than 3 mins. It’s been over ten years since I had to unclog a toilet. We got a new plumbing for the entire house.I forgot how to use the tool. Your video helped me with easy removal. My wife is also grateful!!! She flushed the towel down the toilet with some mop water. And forgot to remove the towel before flushing. Keep the great videos coming!!!
Thank you so much brother!
I love it job completed 💯
Thank you so much , your video gave me motivation to use it vigorously, many thanks to you 🎉
GREAT JOB!!
I bought that used it and our toilet smells fresh in 3 minutes flat.
Cheers mate for video didn't know this existed till I saw this 👍🏿.
Omg!!!! Thank you
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOU RIHGT NOW !!! ❤❤❤❤❤ THANK YOU N GOD BLESS…
Thank you!!!
That Mr Hanky the Xmas poo wasn’t going down without a fight
Great for what you've shared! I have learned a lot from your videos
Great video!
Bought a cheap one from Canadian Tire. I don't know if it worked because the water did go down completely but I didn't pull anything out. I went to flush it but to no success, the water came rising up again but went down to normal level but still the toilet didn't flush correctly and all the poop residue that was in the toilet is now hanging around in the bowl. I tried the hot water and soap trick and it seemed to help a little bit but now I'm stuck with dirty water in the bowl that won't go down 🙁. Any advice?
Edit : The toilet sorted itself out after two months and now works fine so idk what happened
How satisfying!! 😎
Try the Milwaukee m12 auger. Its around 150 bucks. The general telescopic auger is 100 bucks so not much more
Hard work but successful. Thanks
Great job 👍🏻🇺🇸
Will this tool damage the seal wax?
omg thank u this helped
I immediately got one to barrow and it worked I struggled with plunger after plunger and no result thank you so much 🎉🎉🎉
Thanks for your video. I have a different type of auger but showing how close to the bottom of the toilet to put the coil was golden. It changed everything. I made sure to have the start of the coil right at the bottom of the bowl, snaked it in and then turned. Done in a minute! Saved me a lot of frustration.
Excellent
Thank you so much for this very useful and helpful vlog. It helped me a lot. I hope that some vloggers will make helpful and useful vlogs like yours. Instead of making non-sense vlogs. Thanks and God speed...
Thanks I didn't know augers came in different lengths.nI was able to use a 2 ft. Thanks ☺️
Can you use. THat auger in the floor drain?
WHERE CAN I PURCHASE THE TOILET AUGER?
So was that sponge from someone in the household flushing it? Or could that be someone outside
Great video, thank you. You must really love your brother. 😅
You were really giving it the business
Lol yeah that was a difficult one!
@@How2Plumb thanks for the video. I just got back from Walmart and snagged the last 3-foot auger. Worked like a charm. Saved me at least $150 call to a plumber. Thanks bro
Nice! I love it. Thanks for watching!
Lol. "Some jacksss" ....🤣
Thank you
Just did mind! Work it.
Sorry...NOT sorry to say, people who fix things are, in fact, the most attractive people in the world! 😅🤷🏽♀️🥰 Thank you for this video and so happy the little guy's innocence was proven!😂❤️
Thanks 😊 😁😍
What's with the thumbs down? Damn.
Thanks, very much for your help!
You guys need to start doing examples on old houses and houses that have weeds growing in the sewer line.and show what to do. Not on all these newer houses.
Wat zthe name ov the machine
Had a clog, plunger and the soap/boiling water didn't work. Watched this video and went to buy a closet auger and BAM unclogged! Thank you!
Wow.. that was one mean and determined turd.
lol! Right?
@@How2Plumb - Indeed.. all-in-all.. thanks for the tips.. always appreciated.
Where I buy this to clog ?
How plumbers get exercise:
That was a Ruff One LoL . Good Job !!!
US toilets seem designed to readily block to employ plumbers.
I have a toilet that a "genius" teenager clogged up with paper towels. It is so clogged that water level does not drop at all. To make it worse, it's not just one or two pieces but a bunch. I saw how much she grabbed to clean up a small spill in the bedroom and it's probably 20 sheets.
I bought a smaller version of the closet auger and cannot get it to go in.
After insertion I may get it in another 2 inches and nothing.
Paper towels aside, these toilets clog with only human feces. They are horrible.
Is it possible that the passages in the toilet are too small for the auger?
That was definitely the mom 😂
😂
what if we dont have that thing
So are you angling the metal end up?
My sister fixed it :)
Where did your get the snake from we only can get 4 ft that looks it was 8 ft long my problem is 8 ft the problem I’m not a plumber but the whole house is from the clean out 70 ft
maybe plumbing hardware shops have longer ones than hardware shops or ebay
I bought one today from Lowes for $19. It worked immediately. It grab a whole bundle of wet wipes. I guess those were not flushable after all.
What’s the name? I need to buy 1 my baby flushed an apple and my toilet is clogged.
What name the thing You bought.

Hey u nesses up pretty bad and flushed paper towels down the toilet can anyone recommend anything
"Your choice of toilet paper seems a bit rough sir. Mabe throw it in the trash next time."
:D
So someone was using a scouring pad to clean, and flushed it instead of pulling it out? Looks like the kid got the blame for the mom's bad decision.
How much poh
Was you goin clockwise or counter clockwise?
Clockwise
@@How2Plumb ok I've been tryin that it's just not workin lol
thanks
Thanks for the consistent support on the channel much appreciated!!
Lol. Charlie may have used rag as paper. Seen it done many times.
What if your toilet flushes but doesn't have any pressure and bubbles when the water goes down edit: I actually fixed mine just being persistent putting hot water and dishwashing soap I had something stuck in there I have kids so there's no telling I also got some of this acid stuff you can buy from Walmart or tractor supply eventually it ended up going down. I tried to snake my toilet more times than I can count that never worked for me, I also turn my water pressure up by opening my valves all the way on my hot water heater but I think what really did the trick was the liquid lightning it is sulfuric acid and eventually it away whatever was there I think it might have been a toy something plastic I mean I did this routine for about a week and then I gave up and eventually it ended up fixing itself lol I'm not tired just going to call a plumber so I was just like, that's how it is now I guess 🤷🏻♂️
If the toilet is plugged up and the snake auger does not work it's easier to just remove the toilet and snake it back the other way. Toys, balls, etc. are hard to remove unless you remove the toilet. Been there done that😀
They blamed that baby. He's innocent. Whoever cleaned the toilet did that. It looks like a scouring pad. 😌😌
wow!?
2:42 are you sure thats debris 😆
I shoved a camera down there and couldn't really see porcelain. It's all stained from 60 years of use. My toilet clogs intermittently. Maybe I need one of those augers.
My toilet was clogged too
Mines do the same
Lesson: Don't let your Charley eat sponges.
lol
Hahaha! Yea.
Can someone help me what do you call that tool? Thanks in advance
It is called a toilet auger also known as a closet auger.
A plunger worked 4 me
You might as well kept the auger in the toilet when you flushed , which might've cleaned it somewhat already. 👍🏾💩🚽
With bare hands, oh no! I gotta watch _that_ !!/
Hardly anyone will ever admit to dropping something into the toilet bowl and admit to be the culprit, they always just wish beyond hope that the object or debris will magically be pulled through and no one will be the wiser lol. Getting an auger and a better plunger today despite the wife's wishes to simply pour Drano into the toilet. Me thinks she protests too much saying we don't need an auger lol.
Hahah funny debris 🌪️
Why does it seem I'm the only person who cannot get the auger out of the toilet? It's pulled up all the way but that bulb on the end just will not come out! I'm at a loss
We we thought it was little Johnny and his Taco Bell. Little Johnny lied.🤔
Little Charlie points to the cleaning lady.. =) =
lol 😂
My girl cousin when she was 5... broke a toilet.. she had digestive issues and went to use the toilet and it wouldnt go down.. she told the man who owned the house and he came out looking like a ghost shocked. He couldnt understand how her lil body shit out a LOG that went into the hole up and around the bowl almost TWICE... he had to REPLACE the toilet. So yes i could believe a young kid can clog a toilet.. it doesnt even need to be shit it could be w tp or toys ect
Charlie need to eat some fruit 😂😂😂😂
3:50
would this works if it was a plastic toy?
It could work by pushing the plastic toy down the drain line
Use a retrieval swivel headed auger it'll grab things better. I just pulled a set of false teeth out of a toilet for a customer of mine with my new Milwaukee auger last week.
dont flush use controled buckets of water instead
It would be nice if the camera didn’t just focused on the toilet but your whole body. Still struggling with it
Why is it called a _closet_ auger? You can unclog a _closet_ with it?!?!?
It's short for water closet, which is a room with a toilet.
Ah. Thanks.
Why don't you use dish
😉 Don soap
if i can get cad 100/per hour, i will do this job
He put a top of a sponge in it and clogged it
No, I did not. This is how I found it.
This toilet water is brown
You weren't showing us what you were doing with the handle and everything you were just showing in the toilet
I was turning the handle.
I call it a snake
:l
