How to fix a waterline! Featuring Ethan!

Your toilet shouldn’t need a moat.

If water’s coming out around the base during a drain backup, there’s more going on than a clogged pipe.

Under the toilet is a wax ring that seals it to the drain. Nothing fancy. Just a little ring doing a pretty disgusting job.

When the drain backs up, wastewater can build up and put pressure on that seal. A weak seal can let it escape onto the floor.

That’s where our RIDGID K-60SP gets its screen time. We used it to work the cable down this line, break through the blockage, and get things flowing again.

Basically, it gets the job nobody at career day volunteered for.

But “the toilet’s flushing again” doesn’t automatically mean the seal is good.

You can snake the drain from a cleanout somewhere else and clear the clog, but that doesn’t repair a toilet seal that leaked during the backup.

That’s why we recommend pulling and resealing any toilet that leaked at the base, even if we cleared the blockage from another spot. Check the fl**ge, install a fresh seal, reset the toilet, and test it.

Does every backed-up toilet automatically need a new wax ring? No. But if wastewater made an exit around the bottom, that deserves attention.

The bowl is the only approved swimming pool in this situation. RIDGID RIDGID Power Tools
