Common Toilet Issues

• Clogging: When your toilet is getting clogged constantly, then there is something wrong with it. Clogging can be caused by blockage in some parts of the toilet. A toilet usually has an S-shaped trap between the bowl and the drain. When large particles of waste, debris, or shards accumulate there, it becomes hard for water to flow freely.
• Overflowing: If your toilet is overflowing, you should be worried about your home getting flooded. It is not advisable to wait until a plumber arrives. First, open the toilet cover and push down the flapper. Turn off the supply of water to the toilet. This little step will help prevent further damage while waiting for your technician.
• Toilet not flushing: A toilet that does not flush can be one of the most annoying situations ever. It can cause a foul smell in the home, and worse, it is an irritating sight. There are different reasons why a toilet does not flush. First, if there is not enough water in the toilet tank, the toilet will not flush. Is there water in your toilet tank? There should be water an inch below the overflow tube. If the water level is normal, check if the toilet receives water. Secondly, if the pull chain is disconnected, the toilet will not flush. This chain connects the toilet's handle to the flapper, if it is disconnected, it is impossible for the toilet to flush. Another reason a toilet would not flush is the loose or broken handle.
• Leaks: If the toilet is leaking, then the toilet is bad. This problem is very annoying because dirty water is leaking onto the floor of your home, which can cause a foul odor. Loose flange bolts can cause a leaking toilet. Flange bolts are responsible for keeping the toilet rooted into the ground. If the bolts become loose, water will escape from the toilet. It is important to fix this problem immediately, as loose flange bolts often damage the toilet's wax ring.

Toilet Replacement

There are situations where replacing the toilet is important. In cases like this, the toilet can not be repaired at all. Here are some of the reasons why you might need to replace your toilet.

• Constant Clogging Issue: It is normal for the toilet to get clogged occasionally. However, a more significant issue is if your toilet gets clogged weekly. There could be big particles in the toilet, excess use of toilet paper, or even broken toilet parts. This issue can hardly be fixed, so it is better just to get a new toilet.
• Multiple Repairs: If a plumber has worked on your toilet several times, it is a sign that it is aging. To avoid the stress and cost of fixing it, it is advisable to get a new one.
