Help for Clogged, Leaking, or Running Toilets

Toilet issues are common, but they should not be ignored. A small leak around the base, a weak flush, or a toilet that keeps running can waste water and point to worn parts or a deeper drain issue.

Our toilet repair service focuses on finding the cause of the problem and repairing it properly, not just giving the toilet a temporary fix.

Common toilet problems include:

• Clogged toilets
• Toilets that overflow
• Toilets that keep running
• Weak or incomplete flushing
• Leaks around the base
• Water leaking from the tank
• Loose or rocking toilets
• Gurgling toilets
• Slow bowl drainage
• Bad smells near the toilet
• Repeat clogs after plunging

If a toilet keeps clogging or more than one drain is affected, the issue may be connected to the drain or sewer line.

Toilet Problems We Repair

Different toilet problems can come from different parts of the fixture or plumbing system. Some issues are inside the tank. Others involve the drain, flange, seal, or sewer line.

Clogged Toilets

A clogged toilet may be caused by excess paper, wipes, foreign objects, or a blockage deeper in the drain. If plunging does not solve the issue, or if the clog keeps coming back, professional service may be needed.

We clear toilet clogs and check whether the problem is isolated to the toilet or connected to the main drain.

Running Toilets

A toilet that keeps running can waste a lot of water. The issue may come from the flapper, fill valve, float, flush valve, chain, or other tank components.

We inspect the tank parts and repair or replace worn components when needed.

Toilet Leaks

Toilet leaks can happen around the base, inside the tank, near the supply line, or around the shutoff valve. Leaks near the floor should be checked quickly because they can damage flooring and subfloor materials.

We locate the source of the leak and repair the affected part.

Weak or Poor Flushing

A weak flush can happen because of low tank water level, worn parts, mineral buildup, clogged rim holes, or a partial drain blockage.

We check the toilet and related plumbing to find out why it is not flushing properly.

Loose or Rocking Toilets

A loose toilet can damage the wax ring and lead to leaks around the base. If the toilet moves when you sit down, it should be checked before the seal fails.

We can inspect the flange, seal, bolts, and base to determine the right repair.

Our Toilet Repair Process

Toilet repairs should be handled carefully because leaks and drainage problems can cause damage if they are missed.

We Check the Toilet and Symptoms

We start by reviewing what you have noticed, such as clogging, leaking, running water, weak flushing, or movement at the base.

We Inspect the Fixture

Next, we check the tank, bowl, base, supply line, shutoff valve, and visible connections. If the issue may involve the drain line, we look for signs of a deeper blockage.

We Repair the Problem

When the issue is clear, we repair the affected part, clear the clog, replace worn components, or address the leaking connection.

We Test the Toilet

After the repair, we flush and test the toilet to make sure it fills, drains, seals, and shuts off properly.
