I am pretty certain that my son put a golf ball down my toliet. It flushes, but not well. What can I do?
Posted by admin
I <3 my boys asked:
I already found one in the toliet….I have 2 toliets that are acting this way…I am certain golf balls are the culprit. Anything I can do at home?
The ball is not visible…assuming he flushed it after dropping it in.

you will have to lift toilet off base and check it out. if you don’t know how to do this then call a plumber. However it can be done by you if you are handy. Shut off water empty tank and bowl, unscrew base and lift it off. To replace you scrape all the wax seal off and apply a new one and reset.

If you cannot see the ball, it has gone beyond the trap ( flushed ) and cannot be retrieved without damage to the plumbing.
Most sewer pipes in homes are at least four inches in diameter so that a golf ball can flow with the water to the main sewer lines provided there are no other obstructions like hardened sludge or tree roots or breakages in the line.
The problem may not be the ball by itself. Consider “rod-ding” out (cleaning) the lines to remove any debris.

The water to the bowl undo the water in the bowl at the line to remove the bowl undo the line to remove.
