Common Toilet Repairs We Service

As soon as you contact us we will send an experienced plumber to your home as soon as possible. In fact, toilet repairs are one of the most common services we are contacted for. The following are some of the most frequent toilet related issues we encounter.

Clearing Severe Clogs

You will know when your toilet is clogged because when you try to flush a clogged toilet the water will overflow instead of being flushed down the pipe. This may even cause the water to overflow out of your toilet and onto your floor, creating a very unpleasant situation. If you have a stubborn clog that you cannot remove yourself, contact us immediately and we will get your toilet back into working order.

Fix Constantly Running Toilets

If you are hearing the sound of constantly running water in your bathroom, then chances are it’s coming from your toilet. The most common short-term fix may be to simply wiggle the toilet’s flushing handle several times. However, next time you flush the toilet it will continue to run and you’ll have to keep doing this process. Let our experts fix this issue so that you’re no longer wasting water on a constantly running toilet.

Toilet Fixture Repair & Replacement

There are several parts of your toilet that can fail, resulting in a breakdown or leaks. For example, the seals around an older toilet’s water lines may begin to fail, which would result in water leaking around the fixture. Or, perhaps your toilet isn’t flushing properly. Maybe you need to flush it several times to achieve a complete flush. A modern toilet is designed to be more efficient and use less water, which is not only better for sustainability, but will help you save a bit on your water bill.

Toilet Problems You May Encounter

Toilet Leaks: A leaky toilet can cause water damage on the floors surrounding it. A toilet has several potential areas it can leak from. For example, a leak may be coming from the water supply value or where the toilet tank connects to the lower half. You may also notice water leaks around where the toilet is attached to the floor. Regardless of where the leak is coming from, you will want an experienced plumber to fix it as soon as possible.

Toilet Not Flushing: The most common cause of a toilet not flushing is a clog in its pipes. However, there are several other issues that can effect a toilet’s ability to flush properly. If your toilet is simply not flushing all the way, then there could be a problem with the lift chain in the tank. Or, the flush handle may be too tight or too loose.

Toilet fills too slowly: After you flush the toilet, the bowl should refill quite rapidly. If you find that the toilet bowl is filling too slowly, however, then there could be a problem with your water supply value. The value assembly in the tank may need to be cleared of debris, or perhaps it is malfunctioning.

The last thing anyone wants is a broken down toilet. Whether you have a clog, leak or total toilet failure we can get you fixed up in no time. If you are experiencing any issues with your toilet, or require a brand new toilet, then contact the experts at Hire Me Plumbing right away.
