Toilet Repairs in San Francisco
Has the “handle jiggle” become your go-to fix for a toilet that won’t stop running? Do you use a bucket of water to assist a weak flush? Are you constantly reattaching the chain to the flapper valve inside the tank?
DIY repairs may work for a while, but eventually, you need to address the underlying cause of any toilet problem. At Flow Masters Plumbing, we know that repairing a toilet, an essential fixture in your San Francisco home, is not for the faint of heart.
A simple DIY repair can get messy, time-consuming, and very wet if you misdiagnose the problem or apply the wrong fix.

Toilet Maintenance Tips
You can prevent common toilet problems by making maintenance a habit in your San Francisco home. Avoid flushing wipes, feminine hygiene products, cotton swabs, and other paper items into your plumbing system, even if the labeling claims they are flushable. They are likely to clog your toilet or pipes.
Take a close look at your toilet. Inspect for wet areas or water accumulation at its base, the signs of a leak. Add a few drops of food coloring to your tank, wait about 15 to 30 minutes, and check the bowl. If the bowl contains colored water, your tank is leaking.
Test the valve that shuts off water to your toilet. Consider replacing it if it is rusty or resists movement.
