Ask a NYC Plumber: Everything You Ever Wanted to Know About Toilet Troubles

April 16, 2018 by Boris Mechanical

There’s a very famous children’s book called “Everybody Poops!” Because everybody poops, everybody needs a toilet, and sometimes toilets don’t work properly. As a NYC plumber, we’re familiar with the many types of problems toilets can have, including:

The Toilet Doesn’t Flush Properly. When water conservation issues began to be a top concern, toilet manufacturers began developing toilets that would flush using less water. Some of the earliest efforts weren’t as successful as they could have been. Toilets with a weak flush, or that fail to clear the bowl completely with each flush, are not pleasant to live with. Remedying this problem often requires toilet replacement. That’s a job your NYC plumber can do for you.

Clogged Toilets Toilets carry water and waste material away from your home via a drain pipe that’s located beneath your toilet. When this pipe becomes clogged, your toilet can not flush. If you try to flush the toilet, the toilet can back up, resulting in a nasty, stinking mess in your home. There are several reasons toilets clog. The most common cause in NYC is improperly flushed objects. Things like baby diapers, feminine care items, and more can create an obstruction. Sometimes the problem is the condition of the drain pipe itself: if it is compromised, a clog can result. Your NYC plumber can address this concern with drain cleaning services.

The Toilet Never Stops Running The issue with a constantly running toilet is not the annoying noise it makes – it’s how much water gets wasted. Because you never see the wasted water from a constantly running toilet, it can escape your attention. Then the water bill shows up, and you realize you’re paying for hundreds, even thousands, of gallons of water each month. That’s money you could be spending on something a lot more fun. Have your NYC plumber fix it and enjoy the savings on your water bill!
