If standard plunging with a flange plunger fails to clear a stubborn obstruction, stop plunging and switch to a professional toilet auger (closet snake). Feed the vinyl-wrapped steel cable down into the toilet bowl drain trapway and crank the handle clockwise to hook or break apart the dense obstruction. Callout type="warning" title="Hygiene Warning": Wear rubber gloves and protective eyewear to prevent splashing during auger operation. Verification: Retract the cable slowly and test a bucket flush to ensure the water drains away freely.
