My downstairs bathroom toilet must be possessed with demons.... [View all]

Plumber just here, worked for an hour, fixed toilet, left.

I tried to flush it. Nothin'....

I called him as he was driving on the parkway. He turned around and came back.

He snaked it to be certain it was clear. Now it's fixed.

I have had this toilet fixed several times over the years. Plumber warranteed his work for one year.

You would faint if I told you what he charged.
