Does your toilet make unusual noises or run longer than it should when you flush it? If so, you may have a leaky toilet. We understand that you don’t need to call a plumber out for every little thing, so here’s a quick and easy way to test for a toilet leak yourself.
-
- Remove the toilet tank lid.
- Drop one dye tablet or 10 drops of food coloring into the tank. (Dye tablets are sometimes available at no charge through local water pro
viders). - Put the lid back on, but do not flush.
- Wait 10-15 minutes, and then look in the bowl. If you have any signs of the dye in your bowl, chances are you have a small leak.
If you do have a toilet leak, let us know when you call. If a leak is not the issue, and your toilet is running or making odd noises during or after flushing, give us a call, and we will be happy to diagnose and fix your troublesome toilet issue.
