How To Prevent Toilet Clogs
When your toilet clogs, it’s important to have it repaired as soon as possible to prevent water damage to your home or building, and to avoid having overflowing sewage on your floors. Of course, one of the easiest ways to avoid these issues is to prevent it from happening in the first place. Some ways to avoid a backed-up toilet can include:
- Don’t flush disposable diapers or wipes.
- Avoid placing large wads of toilet paper into the toilet.
- Never flush paper towels.
- Don’t place items like Q-tips or other beauty and hygiene products in the toilet.
- Avoid flushing hair trimmings or nail clippings.
- Keep a wastebasket near the toilet to remind yourself and others to throw non-flushable items there.

Professional Solutions To Clogged Toilets
Is a plunger not doing the trick to remove the blockage in your toilet? It can be time to call in a professional. Plumbers have special equipment to help them quickly and accurately remove a clog. Typically, a professional may use an auger to remove the blockage.
An auger is a tool specifically designed for toilets. It consists of a hollow tube attached to an elbow fitting that’s covered by a rubber sleeve to protect the toilet bowl from scratches. The auger has a flexible cable that is fed through the toilet drain with a hand crank to dislodge the clog.
Why is My Toilet Flushing By Itself?
A toilet that flushes by itself, often referred to as "phantom flushing," can be both puzzling and concerning. This issue typically indicates a problem within the toilet tank and should be addressed promptly to avoid water waste and potential damage. Understanding the common causes can help in diagnosing and fixing the problem efficiently.
Here are some reasons why your toilet might be flushing on its own:
- Worn Flapper Valve: The most common cause is a worn or damaged flapper valve. When the flapper doesn't seal properly, water leaks from the tank into the bowl, causing the toilet to flush intermittently.
- Faulty Flush Valve: A malfunctioning flush valve can also cause phantom flushing. If the valve doesn't close correctly, it can lead to continuous water leakage.
- Improperly Adjusted Fill Valve: If the fill valve is not adjusted correctly, it can cause the water level in the tank to rise too high and overflow into the overflow tube, triggering a flush.
- Sediment Build-Up: Mineral deposits and sediment build-up can affect the toilet’s internal components, leading to leaks and phantom flushing.
- Loose or Worn Out Gasket: The gasket between the tank and the bowl might be loose or worn out, allowing water to leak and cause random flushing.
Addressing these issues typically involves inspecting and replacing the faulty parts, ensuring a proper seal, and maintaining the toilet components to prevent future occurrences.

Signs Your Toilet Needs To Be Replaced
Is your aging toilet starting to require repairs, or clogging frequently? It might be time to replace it. When deciding whether or not to install a new unit, watch for the following signs:
- AGE: If your toilet is older and requires a lot of replacement parts to keep it functioning, it can be more cost-effective to replace the toilet with a new model.
- CRACKS: Because most toilets are made of porcelain, they can develop cracks. These might start as hairline fractures, but as these expand they can cause serious water damage to your home or building.
- FREQUENT CLOGS: Older toilets might have design issues that prevent water from properly pushing through the toilet with enough force. This can cause clogs to occur.
- WEAR AND TEAR: As your toilet ages it can develop scratches from wear and tear. These scratches can show stains and cause dirt to cling to them, making the toilet more difficult to clean over time.
- INCREASED UTILITY BILLS: Older toilets may use more water than newer models.
