Why is My Toilet Gurgling?

      You’re right to be concerned; that sound is not normal.

When a toilet gurgles, it indicates that negative air pressure (suction) is building up in the drain line, creating an airlock of sorts. A rumbling sound, whether its random or after you flush, means there is a problem somewhere with your plumbing system. What causes this gurgling? The cause is a blockage in the line. A clog is NOT allowing air to flow through the line, instead, the clog creates negative air pressure and pushes back up the line, creating a gurgling sound. This clog could be an easy fix close to your toilet, or it could be further down the main sewer line. If neglected, waste could back up into toilets, showers, or tubs.
