Common signs that it's time to replace your toilet


 Problems with your toilet can be frustrating and discouraging, especially if you don't have the tools to fix it. How can you tell if your toilet is beyond repair and needs to be replaced? Our guide will save you time (and water) and give you important clues that it might be time to say goodbye to your beloved toilet. You can rely on us when it comes to your toilet: repair, installation, maintenance and unclogging. 

How old is your toilet?

It's obvious that something old needs replacing, but some people don't realise just how old their toilet is. On average, a toilet can be up to 50 years old. However, that doesn't mean you should keep your 49-year-old toilet for a few more years. Older toilets are often inefficient. If your toilet is 25 years old, you should consider switching to a newer toilet to save water and money. 

Cracks in the tank

Cracks are not always easily visible to the human eye. A common sign of a crack is when you notice puddles at the bottom of the toilet. If water is constantly leaking from your toilet, you should inspect the inside and outside of the tank for cracks. 

The flush is uninterrupted

If you flush your toilet and it continues to run for an extended period of time, it means that the flapper valve is not sealing. A running toilet can be annoying and also wastes water. You can often fix this temporarily by wiggling the valve or replacing the valve in the tank. While this sign is not a reason to replace the entire toilet, it can be a problem if it occurs repeatedly even after replacing parts. 

The toilet does not flush at all

Every homeowner and tenant's nightmare! If your toilet won't flush and you can't bring it back to life, you have a serious toilet problem. Our toilet experts are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week if this happens to you! 

Don't let your toilet problems take up more of your weekends to fix. If your toilet is showing some of these signs and you're constantly having to fix it, it may be time to replace your toilet.

Troubleshooting water heater problems: Noisy pipes

Image
 Noisy pipes can be caused by problems with the water heater. When you start hearing noises in the water pipes, these can be caused by air or lack of air, obstructions and blockages in the water line. Here are some steps you can take to identify the problem. Water hammer Water hammer is a dull sound that results from the sudden pressurisation of the water line caused by the rapid closing of a tap or other water valve. The water rises rapidly, causing a loud hammering sound in the pipes. This damages the pipes over time. Water hammer only occurs when water is not flowing. You can rule out water hammer if you hear the noise while the water is flowing. Shut off the water supply to your house and drain the water from the pipes by opening a low tap, such as an outside tap or a tub. Turn off all taps and turn the water back on in the house by opening a tap and closing it. If you do not hear the clunk noise, the problem is a water hammer.
