Running Toilet Repair in Charlotte, NC

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 Charlotte, NC 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 Charlotte, NC.

Talk to a person
Why does my toilet keep running?
Nine times out of ten it is the flapper, the fill valve set too high, or a lift chain that is too short. A food coloring test in the tank tells you if the flapper is leaking.
Is water around the base of my toilet serious?
It can be. If it shows up after flushing, the seal under the toilet has likely failed and water is reaching the subfloor. Get it checked before the floor goes soft.
Is a comfort-height toilet worth it?
For taller adults and anyone with knee or hip trouble, usually yes. The seat sits at 17 to 19 inches instead of about 15. Small children may find it harder to use.
Can a toilet freeze in an unheated bathroom?
Yes. Water in the tank, bowl trap and supply line can freeze and crack porcelain or split the line. In cabins and unheated rooms, drain the tank and add RV antifreeze to the bowl for winter.
Why is my toilet tank sweating?
Cold water in the tank meets warm, humid air and condenses on the outside. The drips can look like a leak at the base. A tank liner or better bathroom ventilation helps.
