Has YOUR Leaky TOILET got you Down in the Dumps?

If you are a homeowner the chances are pretty high that you will experience a cracked or broken toilet tank at least once in your lifetime! This leaky experience can be a nightmare to homeowners!

There are many reasons why your toilet tank may break, but generally it is due to age. As a toilet gets older, it becomes more prone to cracking.

Any repairs you do on your toilet may cause the tank to split and crack. Simply placing the toilet tank cover on could also cause splitting or cracking.

If your toilet is exposed to sudden impact, such as a hair dryer dropping on it or falling into the bowl, your toilet could be subject to splitting or cracking; causing your tank to leak. 

Toilets have also been known to leak at the gasket. As your toilet ages so does that gasket. The gasket is designed to create a seal between the toilet and the plumbing lines in your home. If you notice that your toilet leaks when you flush it, it is probably a worn gasket in need of replacing.
