There are a number of reasons your toilet is repeatedly clogging. Most often a clog is caused by too much toilet paper being used or using non-flushable items that get caught in the P or S trap. In other cases, the clog is actually somewhere deeper in your plumbing system, such as your sewer lines. These types of clogs are most often formed from outside sources or flushed material becoming stuck deep in the sewer lines. Sewer line clogs can be serious and are best resolved by a licensed plumber who can properly access your septic system. If you’re experiencing repeated clogs, don’t hesitate to call or text Howe for a correct diagnosis and prompt repair or replacement.

While repairing minor problems can be a quick solution, replacing old or damaged fixtures can often be a better solution. Replacement eliminates future issues and can help you save time and money in the long run. We often suggest that if it requires repairs more than once, you’re more than likely better off replacing it. You should also take into account how old the home is and how old certain plumbing fixtures are. For example, if your plumbing’s water lines are older than 40 years, consider replacement for health and safety reasons.

A plumbing fixture includes a large number of exchangeable devices connected to the plumbing system with the intention of delivering and/or draining water. All sorts of things qualify as plumbing fixtures, including larger bathroom fixtures like bathtubs and bidets as well as your kitchen sink. Plumbing fixtures also include your piping and valves for dishwashers, ice makers and water spigots.
