Why Won’t My Toilet Stop Running? Why Is My Toilet Leaking?

Our plumbers have been doing toilet repairs in Reading MA and the North Shore for decades. At this point, we know pretty much everything there is to know about toilets. Most importantly, we know how to fix them and when it’s time for a toilet replacement. You can count on us to help you make smart, cost-effective decisions regarding all your plumbing fixtures. Today, we’re discussing causes of common toilet problems.
Problem #1: The Toilet Keeps Running
Usually a toilet that continuously runs when it hasn’t been flushed recently is suffering from a worn out toilet valve. Over time the toilet valve can harden and begin to allow water to escape from the toilet tank to the toilet bowl. This is a problem in need of attention. A running toilet wastes water and will only get worse with time. In many cases, a toilet replacement is not needed. Usually replacing the toilet valve will do the trick.
Problem #2: Leaky Toilets
Toilets can leak for a variety of reasons. Sometimes the wax seal becomes defective and needs to be replaced. Rusted, corroded pipes can also begin to leak water. In rare cases, the porcelain of the toilet tank or bowl can become cracked. In any of these instances, you’ll want to have a Reading toilet plumber take a look at your toilet. If your toilet can be adequately repaired that’s what we’ll do.
Our Plumbers Can Help You Choose a New Toilet
If it is determined that a toilet repair will be insufficient, we can help you to choose a new toilet that will best suit your needs. From low-flow toilets to handicap toilets, we can equip your bathroom with the toilet that makes the most sense for your bathroom.
If your toilet is acting up, give Waldman Plumbing a call before the problem gets worse. Remember, fixing water leaks  will help the environment, as well as help you save money on your water bills!
