What it usually is
A toilet that clogs once is usually a one-off. One that keeps clogging, or where other drains gurgle too, may have a partial blockage in the line.
What to do first
Do not flush again. Use a flange plunger gently. If water rises toward the rim, shut the valve behind the toilet clockwise.
The flat rate that covers it
- Toilet repair (fill valve / flapper / seal): $179
- Single drain clearing (accessible cleanout): $189
Hilltop is an older Tacoma neighborhood of early and mid-1900s homes, small apartment buildings and newer infill. In Hilltop, a mix of old and new work on the same street means supply and drain pipe can be very different from one house to the next.
