Running Toilet Repair in Delavan, IL

A toilet that runs between flushes can waste a couple hundred gallons a day, and most people only notice when the water bill jumps. A-1 Plumbing Services connects Delavan, IL homeowners with plumbers who fix the cause instead of jiggling the handle.

The usual suspects are few. A warped flapper lets water seep into the bowl, so the tank refills on its own every so often (the ghost flush). A fill valve set too high spills water down the overflow tube. A lift chain that is too short holds the flapper open a crack.

Here is a check you can do tonight. Put a few drops of food coloring in the tank and wait 15 minutes without flushing. Color in the bowl means the flapper or the flush valve seat is leaking.

If the seat under the flapper is pitted, the plumber will tell you whether a seal kit or a full valve swap makes more sense.

Toilet repair FAQs

Common questions about toilet repair and toilet installation

Questions we hear most often about Running Toilet Repair in Delavan, IL.

Talk to a person
Why does my toilet refill by itself every so often?
That is a ghost flush. Water is slowly leaking from the tank into the bowl, usually past a worn flapper or a pitted flush valve seat, until the fill valve kicks on to top it up.
Can a cracked toilet tank be repaired?
Not reliably. Epoxy patches rarely hold under constant water pressure. The tank should be replaced, or the whole toilet if a matching tank is no longer made.
What size toilet do I need for my bathroom in Delavan, IL?
Measure the rough-in from the finished wall to the center of the floor bolts. Most homes are 12 inches, and some older houses are 10 or 14 inches. Buy a toilet that matches.
Should I repair or replace my toilet?
Repair when the problem is a valve, flapper, seal or bolt. Consider replacing when the bowl or tank is cracked, parts are discontinued, or an older toilet flushes poorly even with new parts.
Can a wall-hung toilet be repaired without opening the wall?
Usually yes. Most in-wall tanks have an access panel behind the flush plate, so the fill valve and flush valve can be reached from the front.
