Toilet stoppages and water leaks
Toilets stop up! What do you do? When it happens, turn off the toilet supply valve. The supply valve is located under the left corner of the toilet tank, at the wall. If the valve should be too tight to turn off, go to the house main valve and turn it off. If you have questions where these valves are located, check out our HELPFUL HOUSE. When you have the water supply under control, you may try using a plunger on the toilet. Do not put chemicals in the bowl to clear the stoppage.
