Answer 1

If you are on a Septic System you may need to have it pumped. If what you're doing isn't working call a plumber.

Answer 2

You have to fix the toilet seal so you might as well disassemble the toilet and remove it to replace the seal while you are there you can find out if there is a toy or something stuck inside the toilet and run a snake down the drain if it is full of water in the pipe. if it was the septic trap you would have the same trouble with your sinks and tub too.

Answer 3

The no trap for the waste line is in the stool. What is happening is that the wax ring between the stool outlet and the sewer pipe is bad--probably because the stool isn't fastened down properly. The fix is to remove the stool, at which time the floor can be cleaned, any blockage in the sewer line or stool removed, inspect the stool for cracks or chips, replace anything that needs to be replaced including hold down bolts, flooring, and subflooring, install a new wax ring and tighten down. As with many jobs, a careless slip, overtightening or other mishap can turn the job into six miles of bad road.

Answer 4

You have two problems.

The first is that the wax seal around the base of your toilet has failed. This needs to be replaced. In order to clear the clogged toilet I recommend using a snake since the failed seal won't allow you to use pressure.

Once the clog is cleared you need to remove the toilet and replace the seal. Your local hardware store will have all of the supplies you need and should be able to explain in detail what you need to do. It's a simple procedure.

Answer 5

your main sewer line to the septic tank is stopped up or your septic tank is full. Check the septic tank if it is full have it pumped. the dark stain from the sewer is almost permanent. you can remove the toilet and dry the area under the tank and use a bleach solution to neutralize the aroma. but if the flooring is deteriorated aroung the toilet flange you might consider removing the flooring arount the toilet area and replacing it with nes material. remember to cut the flooring material back to the floor joist to insure the joint between the existing flooring and the new flooring is rigid.

Answer 6

Try renting a plumber's snake and sending that through the system to unclog the blockage. If that doesn't work I would suggest calling a plumber because the toilet may need to be removed in order to get at the clog and that could be messy

Answer 7

well i clogged the toilet many times and hate to admit it. but my best advice is if you can't fix it call a plumber your worse off trying to fix the problem on your own than haveing someone help you thats a professional. also maybe a pipe might be broken i never have had an experience like this one so best of luck and may your toilet be unclogged. P.S. look in phone book for best plumber resouces some are cheap and better quaity than your ones who have a nemd brand

Answer 8

You've got several problems, which should we address first. You need to call a plumber to have your sewer lines snaked out to remove all the clogs. You then need to have them reset your toilets that are leaking from underneath because at a minimum your wax seal needs to be replaced. I would probably tear out the carpet and replace with new carpet or consider tile.

Answer 9

You really need to call a plumber. It could be anything from a clogged toilet, to a major clog in the pipes. At any rate, it's not a job for a home handyman.

Answer 10

Sounds like the septic tank is full. The ground is saturated where the lines run and it can't absorb anymore water. Call a septic company. You might need to have new lines added in another spot in the yard. But you won't need a new tank so don't let anybody sell you one. Cost for new lines run around 1500.00 to 2500.00 in Georgia. m

Answer 11

THE FIRST THING YOU NEED TO DO IS GO AHEAD AND TAKE THE TOILET LOOSE FROM THE FLOOR BECAUSE YOUR WAX RING IS NO GOOD AND FLUSH THE TOILET WITH A WATERHOSE OUTSIDE TO ENSURE IT IS NOT CLOGGED AND THEN ATTEMPT TO UNCLOG THE LINE IN THE FLOOR AFTER YOU GET IT USE RID X FOR YOUR SEPTIC SYSTEM IT WILL HELP ELIMINATE THIS IN THE FUTURE
