Toilet Repair — frequently asked
Why does my toilet keep running?+
A running toilet is usually caused by a worn flapper that no longer seals, a fill valve that does not shut off, or an overflow tube set too high.
Is water around the base an emergency?+
It can be, especially if it is contaminated. If the toilet is overflowing and cannot be stopped, shut off the supply valve where safe and arrange service promptly.
