Toilet Plumbing

A leak, breakage, or malfunctioning plumbing in the toilet can be one of the most frustrating things. It not only makes it difficult for the owners to use, but is also highly unhygienic. Many reasons can be responsible for frequent toilet plumbing problems. Uneven flooring, inaccurate pipework, bad weather and most importantly passage of time and wearing out of the parts are some of the main reasons why toilets need fixing.

However, all you need to do is call up a licensed plumber and get an appointment to make the problem go away.

Common toilet plumbing problems

- Clogging

Clogging of toilet can be caused by irregularities in the drainpipe or in the trap area. In most cases, it is some sort of damage from waste itself or something else. In some cases, it is a  problem in the sewer line. But if your toilet is clogging and the water is rising out of the bowl, it is time to make the call to the plumber.

- No or insufficient flushing

Unless you have water scarcity, it is not normal for your flush to not work properly. If it is making problems, then it needs repairs. What is even the point of having a flush toilet if it does not do its work of sanitation right? Also remember, water being present is not enough, there has to be sufficient water as well.

- Running toilet

Running toilets are the opposite problem. It can be caused by a corroded valve or overflow pipe, and lose you gallons of water every day.  A running toilet can cause your water bill to run sky high if not taken care of in a timely manner.
