All homeowners know and understand the importance of maintenance. You need to constantly check and maintain your home to ensure that everything is working properly. One of the most important structures to maintain in your home is your plumbing. And when your toilet doesn’t

work properly or is damaged the ordeal can be frustrating and stressful. It can also be difficult to determine if your toilet needs to be replaced or not. Below we’ll be discussing three signs that your toilet needs to be replaced.

1. Constant Clogging

Toilet clogs are annoying to deal with. While they’re not uncommon, recurring clogs can indicate a much bigger issue. If you have an old toilet ( that needs to be replaced) you may experience clogs more often than normal. If you experience clogs more than once a week or the clogs seem unusual, you should replace your toilet.

2. Too Many Repairs

Toilets shouldn’t need to be repaired frequently. If you find yourself regularly calling a plumber to fix your toilet or if you find yourself with your toilet needing many different repairs at once, it may be better (and cheaper ) to replace your toilet. Discuss the situation with one of our plumbers at Leading Plumbing (561-506-6159), he or she can help you weigh the pros/cons of the situation and help you determine the best course of action to take.

3. Ineffective Flushing

If you find that your water bills are higher than usual, investing in a new water-efficient toilet can help lower your water bills significantly. The average toilet uses 1.6 gallons of water per flush, while a water-efficient toilet uses 20% less than that. If you use the toilet often or have a large

family, replacing your toilet with a water-efficient one can help lower your water bills.

There are several signs that you’re water needs replacement, but whatever the reason make sure you call a professional to install your new toilet for you. The plumbers at Leading Plumbing Services are here to help. Contact us today!
