Plumber Canton, GA: Toilet Repair
Is your toilet leaking or overflowing? Read on…..
No one likes to find that they’ve got a toilet problem. In fact, most of us shudder when we think about having to fix or repair a toilet. Fortunately, the only toilet problem most of us will face is the occasional clog, which can be fixed by simply using a plunger. However, some of us may face some bad luck and end up with a worse problem. If you get a crack in your toilet bowl or seal, you can end up with extensive water damage. If you have a cracked toilet or if your toilet is overflowing, keep reading to find out what to do next.
- Turn off your water!!! The first thing to do in any plumbing emergency is to turn off your water at the main water source. This can help prevent any additional water from leaking out into your home. In a toilet emergency, you may be able to shut off the water valve behind your toilet to stop the flow of water instead of having to shut off the supply to the whole house.
- Remove any objects that can be damaged by water. Make sure you’ve removed all furniture, decorations, clothes, etc. from the area surrounding your leaking toilet. These items can easily be damaged by water, and its a good idea to make it easier for your plumber to get to the problem.
- Clean up. If you can’t fix the problem on your own, the key to preventing major water damage is to clean up as you go. Mopping up and soaking up the water with towels will go a long ways in preventing extensive water damage to your floors and your home.
- And finally- call a plumber if you haven’t already!
