Workman did a giant poo in my downstairs toilet and it won't go.

[Poodlelove]

Today I had 2 men working in my garden , they were recommended to me by a colleague.4 hours work.
After a couple of hours one of them asked to use the toilet , he took off his shoes and was quick and didn't think any more of it.
An hour later the younger fella knocks on the door and I am on a work call , he points to the direction of the toilet and I just nod.

Ten minutes later he is still in there , I had to make another call so didn't think any more of it and then they had finished.

Anyway I had to dash out so got ready and needed a quick wee ( wee is only allowed in my downstairs loo ) and there is such a big poo in the toilet that it is actually out of the water AND it won't flush.

What on earth am I supposed to do ?

My Mum said stand on a chair and pour boiling water from a height 🤢 That doesn't work.
My husband isn't home until 9pm tonight , he is going to have to deal with it , but he said he wants his dinner first.
I could not poo in someone else's house.
Surely he could have held it in or scooped it out himself , or actually told me.
I have found an old ice cream container and some marigolds and as soon as hubby has eaten he can scoop it out.

Oh yuck! I hope it goes down. A delivery driver asked to use our loo the other day, inside I did think "oh no" but thankfully he was so quick it must have just been a wee but he would only have been at ours a minute tops!

Personally I would avoid pooping in someone else's house. Why couldn't he use the local supermarket loos or whatever.

I remember being a teen babysitting. I needed the loo and it wouldn't go down. In the end I had to get it out with toilet paper and it went down another loo. Embarrassing but they never knew about it and I couldn't have left it! Not sure I could do that with some strangers though.

OP, did you not notice that the guy who started the day looking like he weighed 15 stone went home weighing more like 10 stone. That was a brown flag right there.

If you can't shift it, you can always sell up and use it as a marketing feature:

"The downstairs cloakroom comes with a top of the range tradesman's turd preinstalled. This magnificent specimen has beefy top notes and hints of chilli towards the end of a long inhalation. Viewing is a must"

If you can't get rid or get a sale, I recommend a lot of fire and an insurance claim.

You need to break up the giant poo. I would not use water from height, it will splash. Use an old knife or stick which you will them get rid off.

Not everyone can control when they need to poo, but he really ought to have broken it up himself. Maybe he did not look to see that it didn't go down?

OMG winner of most disgusting post ever😂
I really don't know what I would do. Boiling water?? Bleach?? What a filthy git.

I'm jealous.
I envy those who produce megaturds.

Hot (but not boiling) water, with a squeeze of washing up liquid to break down the fats (boak) and leave for a white. Try not to pour the water directly onto the china to avoid cracking it.

DD once told me she'd borrowed my whisk to deal with a similar situation. Later that day, she did later admit she was teasing but I still bought a replacement. Couldn't get the image out of my head.

yeah assuming you don’t live in the middle of nowhere you’d have thought he could’ve found a McDonald’s or supermarket loo.

I had someone ask to use my toilet and I made some excuse and directed them to our building toilet which is specially for staff/contractors working in our apartment building. I know him better now as he’s did a few jobs and would let him use it now if he asked, but this was the first time I met him and wasn’t sure if he would leave it a mess and it would be awkward and I’d be grossed out 😂

Hope it's been dealt with by now? Otherwise 50 minutes until the sentient beast crawls out of the toilet and starts streaking (literally) around your house...

🤣🤣🤣
I have a cake slice (a rather fancy one) in my cutlery drawer. I have no idea where it came from. I'm throwing it out tomorrow, just in case...

No extra drama needed here

What age did she ask him to starting cleaning up after himself? Hope he was doing it by his teen years at least.

I feel the way some men are raised is part of the problem, they think women will just clean up their shit (Literal and metaphorical) as their mother did everything for them

Definitely not cat poo! It was one big log. A German Shepherd maybe but not a 3kg cat 😂

I took the hose pipe to one stuck in the loo. It worked a treat

Call a priest to perform an exorcism.

This thread 💀 why did they remove the laugh reaction?!

it’s not been mentioned yet, but if anyone reading this needs advice and doesn’t have a garden in which to store poo sticks (aka garden privilege), a reed diffuser stick works well and is easy to bin. Don’t ask me how I know 🥲😆

I’d be so proud of that poo. My 11 year old frequetly blocks the toilet with hers, I am not sure how she manages it.

What is all this crap (!) about boiling water and bleach? It's a mechanical blockage. It won't flush because most of the water rushes past the turd and not enough pressure builds up to get past the U-bend. Break it up with a stick or a knife into half a dozen pieces and it'll go in one flush. I learned this from my Mum 50 years ago. Eeee, young people today (etc etc).

I can’t imagine a skewer would be robust enough.

A pair of chopsticks, however…

Do people not have toilet brushes?

Or passed out from the effort and couldn't remember what had happened when he came round again.

I would not be doing all this bucket from a height stuff: won't that risk splashing? Surely that Mr Muscle unblocker would break it down - or even Fairy washing up liquid. That's designed to cut through food grease.

The same priest the workman called to get it passed?

We have had the exact same post on mum'snet before it will flush eventually

Put toilet roll over to cover then break up with toilet brush.

Yes I'm reading backwards (sorry not sure why I sometimes prefer reading in this direction), but have just posted the same concern. Especially if it's starting to break down at all, you will get splashes of it with the water op.

I'd be approaching it far more stealthily.

I don't think it's fair for drivers to ask to come into your home. They know their routes and ought to have sorted out a few options so it doesn't come to crisis point.

Workmen are a bit more complicated given they are on the premises and are there for longer, but all the same, our best workmen take themselves away for coffee and lunch breaks and manage not to inflict it.
