Toilet problems and what causes them
Toilet repair is mostly parts. A plumber finds the failed one and replaces it.
| Symptom | Usual cause | Usual fix |
|---|---|---|
| Runs on and off | Worn flapper or a fill valve that will not shut | New flapper or fill valve |
| Weak flush | Clogged rim jets or a low water level in the tank | Clean the jets and reset the level |
| Rocks or leaks at the base | Failed wax ring or loose closet bolts | Reset the toilet on a new seal |
| Clogs repeatedly | Partial blockage beyond the trap | Auger, then a camera if it returns |
| Tank sweats or leaks | Failed tank bolts or a cracked tank | Replace gaskets or the tank |
A running toilet or a clogged toilet that returns within days is worth fixing at once. A silent toilet leak can waste a surprising volume of water without a sound.
Faucet repair and replacement
Faucet repair depends on the type. Cartridge, ball, disc and compression faucets each wear differently.
- Dripping spout. A worn cartridge, seat or washer is the cause, and it is a short repair.
- Leak at the base or handle. O-rings and packing seals wear and are replaced.
- Low flow. A clogged aerator or cartridge, or a partly closed supply valve, restricts water.
- Faucet install and replace. Replacing a faucet means new supply lines, shutoff valves in good shape and a sealed deck. A kitchen faucet with a sprayer or a pull-down hose adds a few connections.

Kitchen sinks, bathroom sinks, tubs and showers
Each fixture has its own failure points.
Kitchen sink
The drain trap, the faucet, the sprayer hose and the disposal connection all leak at the joints. A tailpiece or basket strainer replaces quickly.
Bathroom sink and vanity
Pop-up stoppers jam, overflow gaskets leak and supply lines under a vanity corrode. Water under a vanity ruins the cabinet floor.
Bathtub
Drain and overflow assemblies, tub spouts and diverters fail. A tub that drains slowly may need a drain assembly replaced.
Shower valve, head and leak
A shower that will not shut off, drips at the head or changes temperature needs a cartridge or valve repair. A leak behind the wall at the valve needs a plumber promptly.
Shutoff, supply and angle valves
The little valves under sinks and behind toilets are the ones nobody turns until the day they are needed. They seize, drip at the stem and sometimes break when turned. Replacing a supply valve or an angle stop means shutting off the whole house for a short time, and it is the right moment to change worn supply lines too.
A burst or broken supply valve is an emergency. The water goes off at the main, and the valve is replaced before the water comes back on.
New toilets, remodels and rough-in
Toilet install and replace jobs include a new wax ring or seal, new supply connection and a leveled, secured bowl. A remodel brings rough-in work: relocating drains and supply lines, setting the valve bodies in the wall and testing before the walls are closed. Specialty installs such as an ADU bathroom, a wet bar or a laundry room start with the same rough-in.
A bidet seat or an extra supply for an appliance is a short add-on when the lines are nearby.

Outdoor faucets and hose bibs
Appliance hookups
Washer, dishwasher and ice maker connections are fixtures too, and each one has a supply, a shutoff and a drain that can fail. A washer box that drips inside the wall rots framing quietly, and a dishwasher supply that weeps under the sink ruins a cabinet floor before anyone notices. Specialty installs follow the same pattern: a wet bar needs a supply, a drain and a vent, and a laundry room needs a box, a pan and a drain path that works.
Appliance connections wear on a schedule, which makes them an easy place to prevent trouble. Braided hoses wear out, and a failed hose is a common cause of flooding. A washer box, a dishwasher supply and a drain connection are replaced on short visits, and the plumber checks that the shutoff behind each appliance works.

Fixture repair questions answered
How do shutoff and angle valves fail?
They seize from mineral buildup, wear at the stem seal and sometimes snap when turned after years. Replacing the valve is a short job once the house water is off.
What should I do about a burst or broken supply valve?
Close the main shutoff right away, then call for a replacement. Mop the water up and check the cabinet or wall below for damage.
Can a plumber fix a leaky faucet?
Yes. Most are repaired by replacing a cartridge, washer or O-ring. A faucet that is old or corroded may be replaced instead.
Who repairs a leaking outdoor hose bib?
A plumber. The stem or the whole faucet is replaced, and a freeze-resistant model protects the pipe in winter.

A fixture that keeps leaking inside a wall may be a leak detection job. A disposal under the kitchen sink has its own page, garbage disposal repair, and a failing line to the house is under pipe repair.
