I will definitely be recommending Baker and Sons to everyone!! They were very professional and came quickly! I love how they sent a picture of the technician that was scheduled to come and the number he was going to be calling from. They went above and beyond and are fair priced. The technicians were very nice and explained everything that they were going to do. Very pleased with everything!
Toilet Replacement in Murphysboro
The main components of toilets are the tank, bowl, flapper, fill valve, and flush valve. Common repair issues revolve around the flushing mechanisms. The flapper controls the tank’s water supply release into the bowl. Worn-out flappers can cause your toilet to run continuously. Toilet flappers can wear out within three to five years.
Faulty fill valves are also a problem because they can prevent water from filling the tank or can cause the water to overflow, potentially damaging your bathroom. Overflows can also happen because of severe clogs within the toilet or sewer line.
Although porcelain is highly durable, it is also brittle. Even minute cracks can cause structural instability, worsening over time and leading to leaks. Severe toilet damage can become a danger to your family due to the potential for injuries.
Your toilet seals can also wear out over time, leading to the need for toilet repair. The wax seal is essential because it prevents leaks as water moves from the bowl to the sewer line. A seal between the tank and bowl can also begin to leak.
We want you to know the signs that your home needs toilet replacement.
- Cracks or other structural damage
- Frequent clogs or sluggish flushing
- Constant toilet repairs
- Wobbling or instability
- Leaks
- Poor water efficiency
Our professional plumbers will consult you about the signs you have noticed and any past repair work. They will then perform a complete inspection to locate the cause of the malfunction. Our plumber can help you determine if the toilet needs repair or replacement. Older toilets that break down frequently and no longer flush efficiently require a replacement.
