Most toilet problems are repairable and don’t require full replacement. However, consider replacement if your toilet is over 20 years old, requires frequent repairs, or has visible cracks in the bowl or tank.
Signs that indicate repair rather than replacement include running water, weak flushes, minor leaks, or wobbling. These issues typically stem from worn internal components that we can replace efficiently and cost-effectively.
California’s water efficiency requirements also make replacement attractive for older toilets. Modern high-efficiency models can cut your water usage significantly while improving flush performance. We’ll help you evaluate whether repair or replacement makes more sense for your specific situation.
First, stop flushing immediately – repeated flushing will only make the problem worse and could cause overflow. Turn off the water supply valve behind the toilet if water levels are rising dangerously.
For minor clogs, a proper toilet plunger can often resolve the issue. However, if plunging doesn’t work after several attempts, or if you suspect the clog is deeper in the system, call for professional help to avoid damaging your plumbing.
Stubborn clogs often indicate problems beyond the toilet itself – blocked vent stacks, main line issues, or objects that shouldn’t have been flushed. We have the equipment to diagnose and clear these more complex blockages safely and completely.
