Answers to Common Questions
View All FAQsWhat should I do if my toilet is not flushing properly?
Most toilet flush issues come from clogs, a stuck flapper, or low tank water. Try a plunger first. Then check that the tank water line is about 1 inch below the overflow, the flapper seals, and the chain moves freely. Open the shutoff valve fully. Avoid chemical drain cleaners. If it still won’t flush, our certified plumbers provide 24/7 emergency toilet repair, thorough on-site diagnosis, and new toilet installation with upfront quotes in Chicago and nearby suburbs.

The most likely cause of a running toilet is a worn or warped flapper that no longer seals the tank opening. A misadjusted or failing fill valve is another frequent cause. We provide 24/7 toilet repair, diagnose tank parts on site, and give upfront pricing before work begins. We serve Chicago and nearby suburbs.
Quick checks:
- Jiggle the handle; if it stops, the flapper likely isn’t sealing.
- Turn off the supply; if running stops, suspect the fill valve. <br/>

Water at the base when you flush usually means the wax ring seal has failed. Loose closet bolts or a rocking toilet can also break the seal. A cracked toilet base or a damaged flange can leak only during a flush. Sometimes condensation or a spill is mistaken for a leak. ABC Plumbing, Sewer, Heating, Cooling and Electric offers 24/7 toilet repair in Chicago and nearby suburbs.
Quick checks:
- See if the toilet rocks; snug the bolts gently.
- Dry the area, flush, and watch for fresh seepage.
- Shut off the valve if water pools.

Most toilet replacements are priced after an on-site evaluation. Your final cost depends on the toilet you choose and any extra work, such as flange fixes, shutoff valve or supply line updates, and haul-away.
