5 signs that your toilet needs to be repaired/replaced
- Constant clogging – random or recurring clogs may indicate a more serious problem. If your bathroom still has an old, low flush toilet, you may be experiencing stoppages more often than you care to see. If it happens more than once a week, or the clogs seem random and odd, you should consider replacing your toilet.
- Toilet Wobbles – this can be caused by a number of issues but it is almost certain that the toilet is broken or leaking. Leaks may have led to water damage which could be causing the subflooring to give under pressure. Act now before the matter gets worse.
- Visible cracks – There aren’t many parts on a toilet where a crack is just a “cosmetic nuisance”. Every component has a pivotal function, Aside from the toilet seat and the tank cover, most cracks anywhere else will call for replacement of the fixture.
- Age – If that toilet has been around for 20+ years, there could be benefits to replacing it. Over time, mineral deposits can build up on the lines and can cause the water to flow very slowly or stop altogether in extreme cases. You may also want to install a more modern design, water-efficient unit.
- Ongoing repairs – If you have been DIYing it and just can’t take it anymore, let the pros handle it. We will remove the existing fixture, haul it away and replace it with a shiny new unit of your choice!
