Has the "handle jiggle" become your go-to fix for a toilet that just won’t stop running? Do you find yourself flushing with a bucket of water to compensate for a weak or inconsistent flush?
Are you lifting the tank lid to reattach the chain to the flapper valve—again?
While these quick DIY fixes can help in the short term, they often mask more significant issues that will only get worse over time. Eventually, even the most patient homeowner reaches a point where patchwork solutions just won’t cut it anymore.

Installing a New Toilet
How do you know when it is time to replace your toilet? Age is a significant factor when weighing repairs versus replacement. Your toilet may continue to operate after 20 years, but it may also waste water and cost you money.
The EPA says toilets are the main source of water use in homes. Older, inefficient toilets that use more than six gallons per flush are a significant source of wasted water.
The plumbing pros at Ongaro & Sons can help you choose a quality toilet with a strong flush and water-saving efficiency. Replacing your old toilet is a cost-effective alternative to frequent repairs.

Toilet Maintenance Tips
You can prevent common toilet problems by making maintenance a habit in your home. Avoid flushing wipes, feminine hygiene products, cotton swabs, and other paper items into your plumbing system, even if the labeling claims they are flushable. They are likely to clog your toilet or pipes.
Take a close look at your toilet. Inspect for wet areas or water accumulation at its base, the signs of a leak. Add a few drops of food coloring to your tank, wait about 15 to 30 minutes, and check the bowl. If the bowl contains colored water, your tank is leaking.
Test the valve that shuts off water to your toilet. Consider replacing it if it is rusty or resists movement.
