    because something is clogging the drain-you need a plumber

      I've had a plumber out, snake it, etc.


      Thank you. Have a good day.

    Darr. Not enough water to flush. Use a plunger, and when it's clear, flush a couple of times to clean the lines. Open the value, under the tiolet, to let the water fill up faster. Aloha!

      Aloha. I'm curious to find out what it could be since it's just me. Unless it's been there forever. I've had it snaked and the entire toilet removed, etc.

    You have a clog or something fell into the toilet floating in the cavity causing a blockage. Get a toilet auger and see if that clears the clog or pulls out what may have fell in. I pulled out toys, combs, small half filled bottles, pens and pencils out of toilets.

    If you are on a septic system it could be time to have the tank drained.

    We had lots of trees and roots got in line. We dug up yard, replaced tile, and finally covered with dry concrete then some water. It always came in same place. Took care of problem.
