Common Signs of Toilet Problems:

Frequent Clogs

If your toilet clogs often, even with normal use, there may be a deeper issue in the drain.

Weak or Incomplete Flush

A toilet that doesn’t flush properly can indicate problems with the tank, flapper, or water levels.

Constant Running Water

If water keeps running after flushing, it could be a faulty flapper, fill valve, or other internal component.

Leaks Around the Base

Water pooling at the base of your toilet may signal a failing seal or hidden plumbing issues.

Wobbly or Unstable Toilet

A rocking toilet may indicate loose bolts or a damaged wax seal, which can lead to leaks.

Reasons a toilet should be replaced

While you can find toilets that are low or moderately priced, you still probably want to get the longest life out of your current unit as possible.  So, how do you know when you should replace your toilet by installing a new one?

There are several factors to consider in making the repair or replace decision:

  1. Damage on the toilet – obviously if the toilet itself is damaged or cracked, it is best to replace the toilet. Some cracks, if they are above the water line, may be repairable, but often the structural integrity of the unit is compromise regardless of where the crack exists.

  1. Age of the toilet – if the toilet is over 25 years old, you should consider replacing it.   Surprisingly, the technology advancements around toilets have been substantial since the passing of the Energy Policy Act of 1992.  Newer toilets have been designed with water-saving features that increase flushing power while conserving water and saving you money.
  1. Repeated Repairs Needed – as with most appliances, once your toilet requires frequent repairs, it’s time to consider replacing it with a new unit that won’t break down.
  1. Frequent Clogs – this may come as a surprise, but frequent clogs may be a sign that your toilet needs to go. A professional can help you determine if the clogging is due to the sewer lines or the toilet itself, but when it’s the fault of the toilet, it’s best to replace the unit before it overflows into your home.
  1. Toilet Design – standard older toilets were generally shorter than toilets readily available today. If someone in your household needs an ADA compliant, chair-height toilet, it may be best to install a new toilet rather than repairing a your existing one.

Considerations When Installing a New Toilet

Replacing a toilet with a new fixture seems pretty straight-forward, but there are several features to take into consideration before you purchase your replacement toilet.

  • Distance from the wall – this feature is known as the rough-in distance. Most toilets come with a 12” rough-in distance. However, if you have a very small space for your toilet, it may have been designed with a 10” rough-in.  It’s best to measure this distance before you purchase your new unit.  To determine the rough-in distance, measure from the wall to the toilet bolt on the base of the toilet.
  • Base size and design – if the flooring was installed after the toilet, it’s possible that the flooring does not extend underneath the current toilet. Look at your current flooring situation to see if you need to take the toilet footprint into consideration for your replacement.
  • Height of the toilet – if there is a ledge, window, or another obstruction above the toilet, you’ll need to make sure the height of your new unit will work with the current set up.
  • Height of the seat – toilets come in standard and tall heights. If mobility is a consideration, you will want to find a toilet that meets the ADA compliance for seat height.  This is generally around 16-17” and can easily be found on toilets in home improvement stores.
  • Toilet shape—toilets come in two common seat shapes: round or elongated. Personal comfort generally determines which shape you choose.  However, if the toilet space is small, you’ll want to be sure an elongated seat will fit without impeding door space.  The last thing you want to do is install a new toilet and find the bathroom door can’t close anymore.

FAQ's

How do I know if my toilet needs to be replaced instead of repaired?
