Common Causes of a Leaking Toilet
Toilets contain several moving parts that can wear out over time, causing leaks that may go unnoticed until they start affecting your bathroom flooring or utility bills.
🚽 1. Worn-Out Flapper Valve
The flapper valve is responsible for sealing the toilet tank after each flush. When the flapper is worn, warped, or misaligned, water leaks from the tank into the bowl, causing a constantly running toilet.
🔍 How to Identify the Issue:
● You hear the toilet continuously running even when it hasn’t been flushed.
● The toilet tank refills periodically, even when not in use.
● A simple food colouring test (placing food dye in the tank) will reveal leaks into the bowl.
🛠 Solution:
✅ Replace the flapper with a new rubber seal to restore proper function.
✅ Check the flapper chain—if it’s too long or tangled, it may not seal properly.
🔧 3. Loose or Worn-Out Seals
A toilet has multiple seals that keep water contained. Over time, these seals can loosen, dry out, or break, leading to leaks around the toilet base or between the tank and bowl.
🔍 How to Identify the Issue:
● Water pools around the base of the toilet.
● You see drips forming at the tank-bowl connection.
● There’s a persistent musty smell, indicating trapped moisture.
🛠 Prevention Tips:
✅ Schedule a CCTV drain inspection every 1-2 years to detect root intrusions early.
✅ Avoid planting large trees near sewer lines—opt for trees with non-invasive root systems instead.
✅ Install root barriers to prevent roots from reaching your pipes.
✅ Use a professional plumber to remove tree roots safely without damaging the pipes.
🛠 Solution:
✅ Tighten the tank bolts or replace the wax ring seal under the toilet base.
✅ Check for loose pipe connections and seal them with plumber’s tape.

Common Causes of a Blocked Toilet
A blocked toilet can range from a minor clog to a major sewage backup, depending on the severity of the issue.
Here’s what could be causing the problem.
🚰 1. Flushing Non-Flushable Items
One of the most common causes of a blocked toilet is flushing items that should never go down the drain.
❌ Common culprits include:
● Baby wipes (even those labeled “flushable”!)
● Sanitary products
● Cotton pads and swabs
● Paper towels
● Dental floss
🛠 🛠 Solution:
✅ Only flush toilet paper and avoid disposing of foreign materials in the toilet.
✅ Keep a waste bin in the bathroom to discourage improper disposal.
💩 2. Excessive Toilet Paper Usage
Using too much toilet paper at once can clog pipes, especially in homes with older plumbing systems. By being mindful of what goes down the drain and scheduling regular maintenance, you can keep your plumbing system running smoothly.
🔍 How to Identify the Issue:
● The toilet flushes slowly or doesn’t flush completely.
● Water rises higher than usual before draining.
● A plunger temporarily fixes the problem, but the issue keeps returning.
🛠 Solution:
✅ Flush in smaller intervals when using large amounts of toilet paper.
✅ Consider installing a dual-flush toilet for better water control.
💩 4. Sewer Line Issues
If multiple toilets and drains in your home are backing up, the issue is likely in your main sewer line, not just an individual toilet.
🔍 How to Identify the Issue:
● All toilets in the house are draining slowly or gurgling.
● Water backs up into the bathtub or shower when you flush.
● There’s a bad sewage smell near outdoor drains.
🛠 Solution:
✅ Call a professional plumber for CCTV drain inspections and hydro-jetting.
✅ In severe cases, a sewer line repair or replacement may be required.
