What should I do about my blocked toilet?

Question

Accepted Answer

If your toilet is blocked, you could try unblocking it yourself, like this: https://www.bunnings.co.nz/diy-advice/bathroom/baths-showers-and-toilets/how-to-unblock-a-toilet#step-by-step
If the toilet is blocked through normal use, it’s the landlord’s responsibility to fix it and, if there’s no other toilet on the property, to do the repairs urgently i.e. within 1–2 days. Tell the landlord about the damage as soon as possible, no matter how it happened or who caused the damage. If you don’t and the damage gets worse, you may be held liable for some of the costs of repair.
