It may be easier to hire out a professional to carry out a job which seems intimidating but this costs money! Of course it all depends on the job in hand, but there are ways you can try and maintain items in the house and hope they stay in good condition. Today we discuss maintaining the toilet.
The most common issue a toilet gets is water leaking from the toilet tank. This can not only prove costly in terms of your water bills, but also cause damage to your bathroom as a whole. If you want to check whether your toilet tank is leaking, add some food colouring to the water in the tank and then check the toilet after an hour. If the water in the bowl is coloured, then you most likely have a leak.
If the toilet is leaking from the tank to the bowl, then the flapper will need replacing.
