Common Toilet Problems

Toilets that Clog Repeatedly

  • Foreign Objects - It's amazing how many people will flush non-toilet paper down the toilet. If you're experiencing repeated clogs, there is a good chance someone in your family is flushing: paper towels, tampons, q-tips, prophylactics, baby wipes, or other objects down the toilets. Make sure you have a talk with the members of your household, young and old about what goes into the toilet. (Toilet paper or tissues.) And what doesn't (Everything Else.)

  • Flapper Position- The flapper opens up to allow water from the tank to flush the toilet. If, for some reason it isn't opening all of the way, you may not get enough water into the bowl to properly flush. 

  • Blocked Plumbing Vents - Toilet drains vent out through your roof. These often become clogged by birds nests or other debris. If you are hearing gurgling in your drains, or drains have a lot of odor coming up through them, there is a good chance your problem is a clogged vent. 

  • Object in the Trap - While a plunger will push most things down the drain, if something like a toy or a toothbrush end up wedged in the S-Curve of the pipe, it will continue to collect debris and clog your toilet. 

  • Sewer Line Obsructions- Sewer lines may become clogged, or damaged by tree roots. This can cause backups in the toilet. 

  • Older Low Flow Toilets - When low-flow toilets first came out, there were a lot of design flaws. Newer Low Flow Toilets have good flushing power, but the older ones can fall short of the job. It may be time to swap out for a newer model, or simply to remain friendly with your plunger. 

Leaky Seals & Wax Rings

There are about 5 separate locations where your toilet seals can fail and leak. Most of these can be repaired with simple tightening or replacing of the seal. The largest fix is the wax ring at the base of the toilet. If you see water around the base of the toilet and you've eliminated all of the other locations as a cause for the leak, the toilet will have to be lifted from the floor and the wax ring replaced.

Phantom Flush

Is your tank mysteriously refilling - as though someone had just flushed? This is a sign that your tank is leaking water. To confirm this, you can drop some food coloring in the tank. If your toilet bowl changes color as well, you need new flapper.

Disappearing Bowl Water

Two things may be causing your bowl water level to change after filling. If you notice that you have the normal amount of water in the bowl - only to find later that most of it has disappeared, it's possible that there is a partial clog of toilet paper soaking up the water. The other less common possibility is that there is a crack in the colon or piping of the bowl. If this is the case, you will need to replace the toilet bowl.

Whistling Tanks

Does your toilet make a lot of noise when filling? Older toilets with ball cock valves will close slowly as the water level drains, causing suction noises as the water drains. A new toilet tank fill valve that stays open entirely until flushing is completed will eliminate the noise.

Disappearing Bowl Water

Two things may be causing your bowl water level to change after filling. If you notice that you have the normal amount of water in the bowl - only to find later that most of it has disappeared, it's possible that there is a partial clog of toilet paper soaking up the water. The other less common possibility is that there is a crack in the colon or piping of the bowl. If this is the case, you will need to replace the toilet bowl.
