Common Toilet Problems

Once a part of the toilet breaks down or is too worn, it will hamper total operation and cause toilet malfunctions including vapor, plugged drains and overflowing toilets. Plumbers can detect the malfunction and provide a  solution to get your toilet functioning again.

Once you discover that your floor is wet every time water is flushed, the problem is most likely the wax bowl ring (located at the foundation of the toilet). As changing a wax seal involves removing the toilet from the floor, D.I.Y buffs should leave this job to  the plumbing professionals, but many homeowners can D.I.Y. Should you give it a try, start with disconnecting the water supply, Loosen the screws that anchor the toilet to the floor, put in a new wax bowl ring and place the toilet over the screws. Replacing the wax bowl ring is also crucial if the toilet wobbles back and forth breaking down the wax ring.

Blocked Toilet Clogs generally induce poor flushing. If not repaired, a congested toilet will spill over and flood your bathroom with gray water. A tiny clog may be removed with a toilet plunger. You can call Option One plumbing and have this service provided for only $49.50.

Condensation or "Sweaty tank" Steam triggers your toilet bowl to drip. Once oxygen in the bathroom is of a higher temperature than the temperature of water within the bowl, condensation will occur and generate a perspiring toilet. If not repaired, a sweaty toilet bowl can trigger fungus in the bathroom.

Running Toilet Hidden water leaks increase your water bill by discharging water gallons down the drain. Save money and water by Inserting a number of         drops of food coloring dye into the tank. If the food coloring leaks inside the bowl within thirty minutes, your toilet is without a doubt leaking. Changing           the rubber flapper valve will possibly end the water leak. As runny toilets are money and water wasters, call Option One plumbing for prompt water leak           detection and quick repair.
