Your toilet is one of the most used plumbing fixtures, so it’s easy to see that it takes a lot of wear and tear. As a result, there may be times that the toilet needs to be replaced.

To determine whether or not you need a new toilet there are some signs that you should look for before making a new purchase.

Regular Clogs

If your toilet is frequently clogged and regularly overflows, there could be a problem with the toilet itself. While there are typical problems regarding the pipes, but the toilet can also be damaged.

Toilet Constantly Running

When toilets are continually running, there may be some simple ways to fix it. However, if the problem is consistent and persists for an extended period, there may be an issue that you are unable to fix. This is when you may want to consider getting a new toilet.

Large Leaks

If you’re noticing leaks around the toilet, you may have a severe problem on your hands. The tank may have a leak, or the bottom of the toilet may not be correctly installed. Either way, it could be time for a new toilet.

Your Toilet is Old

Plain and simply, if you have an older toilet that uses too much water when flushed, you should consider replacing it with a newer, more efficient and environmentally friendly model. This can help you in the long run and save you money on your water bills.

If any of these signs are apparent in your bathroom, it’s time to start looking for a new toilet. If you have other plumbing needs or questions, don’t hesitate to contact us!
