My 2-year-old flushed a small, 2-inch hard, round, plastic toy down our toilet. It is lodged 6 feet down.
I rented a 5/8-inch snake from Home Depot, but the tip broke off. I called a plumber, but their snake broke too.
Our house is completely clogged. Other than digging through the floor to find the toy, is there a way to dislodge the toy, break it up or push it through to the septic tank?|||In most home construction the line coming off of a toilet should bee 4". However if you have a 2" line, it should not travel very far before it branches into a 4" line. Are you in a mobile home or a frame house with a slab. If you have a concrete slab, a plumber should be able to disconnect the other inlets (sink, tub ect) then use compressed air to push it threw. If you are in a mobile home it would be easier to go under the home and cut the line open at the plug.
Good Luck|||rent a wet vac, with a long 1-1/2 inch hose on it start it up run hose down pipe , it will grab the toy and you can pull it out that way,|||sewer lines are 3" i think you have other problems,go to the outside clean out and run the snake back to the house,pull the toilet.
