Most running toilets are caused by worn internal parts that no longer seal or shut off the water. Exact cause depends on an on-site inspection by a licensed plumber. We repair and replace all toilet models, and our trucks carry hundreds of parts to complete most fixes in one visit. You’ll get upfront pricing before work begins, and we guarantee our workmanship.

A toilet leaking at the base when you flush usually means the wax ring seal has failed. Loose closet bolts, a cracked or corroded flange, or a hairline crack in the bowl can also cause seepage. If water appears only on a flush (not constantly), the supply line isn’t the source. We repair and replace all toilet models, often same visit with stocked parts, in Indianapolis and nearby cities.
Quick checks:
- Stop using that toilet and shut off the valve.
- Dry the area and confirm it leaks only on a flush.
- Avoid over-tightening the bolt caps; it can crack porcelain.

Yes. Many homeowners can replace a standard toilet fill valve with basic tools. If the shutoff valve leaks, the toilet still runs, or you have a specialty unit (like TOTO Neorest or an INAX integrated toilet), use a licensed plumber. Carter’s My Plumber repairs and replaces all toilet models and stocks hundreds of parts on our trucks for same-visit fixes in Indianapolis and nearby areas.
Quick steps:
- Shut off water and drain the tank.
- Remove the old valve.
- Install the new valve and set the water level.
- Turn water on and check for leaks.
