Thanks Max - yeah, that's actually what the plumber suggested too, and I might consider that as a short term solution, but to be honest, I wouldn't put up with that as a tenant for very long (snaking a clogged toilet is not a particularly pleasant task), so I do want a more "hands-off" solution in the loner term.
