"I started having a sewage smell over three years ago. The smell would come, and we would pour clorox in the drain and it would let up for a while; we did this for two years. In the last year we contacted two plumbing companies, who came out and suggested that we place a drain clearer in the drain. In the last month, the smell came back really bad and we started smelling it everyday (the smell was making me sick). I went to Angi list and was contacted by Drain Logic. The young man came out and went into our bathroom; after he flushed the toilet, he knew the issue right away. He said you need a Trap under the tub. I asked him, how was he able to diagnose the issue so quickly; he said Experience. Mind you, that I have had two other companies come out, without ever diagnosing this issue. He was able to place a trap under our tub and we will not have to worry about the awful smell again. Thank you Drain Logic-Twindol Prater."

"Comment: I was finally able to find a responsive and reliable plumber. Jason returned my call promptly and showed up on time for both the estimate and several days later when he completed the job. He replaced two toilets, an outside spigot and well as installing several cut off valves. All work was done with care and cleanup was great. Jason also made suggestions for other work that I am considering. All-in-all this was a positive experience and I highly recommend Jason and Aquarius Master Plumbing and Heating for your plumbing needs. Thanks again, Jason."

Plumbing repairs can be complex. Often there is damage or breakage in areas that can't be seen without being examined thoroughly. Plumbers will investigate the issue and then let you know what to expect.

Helpful?

To test for toilet leaks, use water coloring in the water tank and see if the water slips into the bowl from the tank. This test will indicate if there’s a problem with the flapper or refill tube. You can also put water coloring in the bowl of the toilet to see if there is a leak there. If there is, you should see the colored water on the outside of the toilet bowl or on the floor. 

Yes, an ambitious homeowner could decide to replace their own toilet. A person attempting to do a DIY toilet installation should keep in mind that the average toilet weighs between 100 and 120 pounds. That means that you'll need to be comfortable lifting and carrying your old toilet and replacement toilet during both phases of the project. Additionally, homeowners will need to have basic plumbing knowledge to avoid plumbing problems that could result in messy, expensive water damage in their bathrooms. Hiring a plumbing pro from the get-go can help you avoid damaging your plumbing or your new toilet.

After flushing the toilet, you should have about half a tank full of water. While the exact amount of water you’ll have will vary, you want to make sure you have enough to cover the bottom of the bowl and enough to sit above the P-trap drain. While low water in your toilet bowl can indicate a problem, too much water can also be cause for concern.

First, check that you have cut off the water supply to your toilet. This is a project that can only be done safely if running water cannot reach your toilet fixture. If you're seeing water trickle out after you've confirmed that the water supply is shut off, you can probably rest assured that what you're seeing isn't a problem. It's common for leftover water to spill out when you're removing your toilet's fill valve. If something goes wrong while you're working on your toilet, you'll need to look at your home's policy to see if your homeowner insurance covers water damage.
