A toilet leak occurs when water escapes from the toilet bowl, tank, or base instead of flowing correctly through the plumbing system. Some leaks are visible, while others remain hidden, silently wasting gallons of water. (Oh no!)
Is your toilet constantly running, leaking at the base, or leaving unexpected water puddles on the floor? Toilet leaks are not only frustrating but can also lead to higher water bills, potential water damage, and even mold growth if left unattended.
Worn-Out Flapper or Seal – A faulty flapper inside the tank can allow water to continuously leak into your bowl.
Loose or Damaged Bolts – Loose bolts securing the toilet to the floor can cause leaks at the base.
Cracked Toilet Tank or Bowl – Even small cracks can lead to water seepage over time.
Faulty Fill Valve – A malfunctioning fill valve can cause your toilet to run continuously, wasting water.
Broken Wax Ring – A deteriorated wax ring at the base of the toilet can allow water to leak onto your floor.
High Water Pressure – Excessive water pressure can wear out internal toilet components, causing leaks.
Improper Installation – A poorly installed toilet may not seal correctly, leading to water leaks.
Conducting a Leak Test – We perform dye tests and pressure checks to locate hidden leaks.
Inspecting Toilet Components – We examine the flapper, fill valve, tank, bowl, wax ring, and supply lines for any damage.
Tightening & Sealing Connections – If bolts or seals are loose, we properly tighten and secure them.
Replacing Worn-Out Parts – We replace flappers, seals, wax rings, or faulty valves to stop leaks.
Fixing or Replacing Cracked Toilets – If cracks are present, we seal small ones or recommend a full toilet replacement for severe damage.
Adjusting Water Pressure – If excessive water pressure is causing the leak, we install pressure regulators to protect your plumbing.
Ensuring a Leak-Free Flush – After repairs, we run multiple tests to confirm the issue is fully resolved.
✔ Water pooling around the base of the toilet
✔ The sound of running water even when the toilet isn’t in use
✔ A slow or weak flush
✔ Frequent refilling of the toilet tank
✔ An unexpected increase in your water bill
✔ Mold or mildew growth near the toilet area
If left unchecked, toilet leaks can cause floor damage, wall deterioration, and plumbing issues. That’s why quick action is essential!
