Common Problems With Toilets in South Carolina

These are some of the most common signs that it’s time to repair the toilet in your Charleston-area home:

  • Frequent Clogs. If your toilet clogs more than once a week, there could be problems with water valves, the lift chain, or the flapper.
  • It Is Constantly Running. A toilet that won’t stop running is a toilet that is flushing your money down the drain. There are many causes of toilets that won’t stop flushing, and a certified plumber can help you identify the problem with your specific system.
  • Cracks. Cracks in the bowl are a messy problem that shouldn’t be ignored. These can allow puddles of water to form around the toilet, which can damage to your flooring and more. If you see standing water around the base, contact a plumber pronto.
  • Handles Are Stuck/Loose. Handles are one of the most common reasons for toilet repair as they can become stuck or loosen as time passes. This results in poor flushing performance and can result in the toilet handle simply falling off unless adjustments are made.
  • Visible Rust. Interior components can rust and wear out. The older the toilet, the more likely that corrosion will reduce the effectiveness of your toilet.
  • Fails to Refill. Problems with tanks that fail to refill are usually because of damaged floats or other components. In most cases, all it takes is a quick repair, and the water will start flowing into the bowl again.

Of course, there are many causes of toilet damage that require expedient repairs. These include damaged float assemblies, incomplete/weak flushes, leaks around the bowl, and much more. The sooner you reach out to a certified plumber, the sooner we can get things flowing smoothly again.

Questions to Ask Your Charleston, SC Plumber

    After finding out my toilet was leaking and the panicky scramble of “what do I do’s”, I called Preferred Home Services. They were able to come out and fix the issue all within a few hours.

    Very happy with Preferred Home Services. They were very professional and courteous during the installations. They were very efficient and took time to explain everything to me before and after, and very prompt with follow-up questions.

    ~ Katie V.

    At 6 PM on a 95-degree day, I noticed that my system was not cooling and was in fact down. I called and was pleased to have someone pick up the phone and listen to the symptoms of the problem. They ultimately dispatched a repair person who was able to get the system up and running by 8:30 PM in advance of a long, hot holiday weekend, I was very pleased with the prompt response to my emergency.

    ~ Bruce H.

    They installed a new unit and replaced all the duct work under my house. They did a great job and were very professional and had the job done in just two days! I will highly recommend this company to anyone needing work.

    I can't say enough about this company! I've used them twice now, once for a plumbing issue and today for my AC. They were prompt, professional, knew what they were doing and made me feel comfortable and confident in their work.
