What is the most common cause of a running toilet leak?

Most running toilets come from a worn flapper that no longer seals, letting water leak from tank to bowl. A misadjusted chain or a failing fill valve can cause the same issue. Our plumbers check these parts first and replace them with quality components if needed, often in one visit with stocked trucks. If a flange or drain problem is found, we explain options before work begins. We service homes in Mentor and Painesville.
