Signs Your Toilet Needs Repair
Contact AAA Organized Plumbing when your toilet exhibits issues like leaks, overflows, insufficient flushing, or continuous running. We prioritize addressing your plumbing concerns promptly, recognizing the inconvenience a malfunctioning toilet can cause.
Recognize these signs that indicate your toilet requires attention:
- Weak, slow flushing that doesn’t clear the bowl may be due to clogged rim jets or a corroded siphon hole. The toilet float inside the tank might need adjustment.
- Water around the toilet base signals a leak from a broken seal or cracks in the porcelain.
- If you find yourself jiggling the handle frequently, your toilet may need a new flapper valve.
- A worn fill valve may be the cause if the toilet bowl doesn’t fill after flushing.
- An overflowing toilet is a clear indicator of a clog.

You can rely on AAA Organized Plumbing for cost-effective, high-quality repairs and installations.
Installing a New Toilet
How do you determine when it’s time for a toilet replacement? Age is a crucial consideration when deciding between repairs and replacement. While a toilet may still function after 20 years, it could be inefficient and lead to increased water expenses.
According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), toilets are the primary contributors to water consumption in households. Outdated toilets using more than six gallons per flush contribute significantly to water wastage.
Toilet Replacement
Our plumbing experts at AAA Organized Plumbing can assist you in selecting a quality toilet with a robust flush and water-saving efficiency. Replacing your old toilet is a cost-effective alternative to frequent repairs.
Other signs you should consider replacement:
- Cracked porcelain leads to leaks.
- If your tank leaks, consider replacing the entire toilet. It makes better financial sense.
- An older toilet that clogs frequently is ready for replacement.
Toilet Maintenance Tips
Make toilet maintenance a household thought in order to prevent common plumbing issues.
Refrain from flushing wipes, feminine hygiene products, cotton swabs, and other paper items into your plumbing system, even if labeled as flushable. Such items are likely to cause clogs in your toilet or pipes.
Periodically inspect your toilet for wet areas or water accumulation at its base, indicating a potential leak. Conduct a simple test by adding a few drops of food coloring to the tank, waiting 15 to 30 minutes, and checking the bowl. If the bowl contains colored water, it signals a leaking tank.
Evaluate the valve responsible for shutting off water to your toilet. If it appears rusty or resists movement, consider replacing it.
