What should I do if my toilet is not flushing properly?

Try a few quick checks, then call a pro if the flush is still weak or the toilet runs. Flatley’s fixes clogs, weak flushes, and leaks, with same-day and emergency service. For tough blockages, we can hydro jet the line after diagnosis.

  • Make sure the water shutoff valve is fully open.
  • Lift the tank lid; straighten the chain and ensure the flapper seals.
  • Adjust the fill valve to the marked water line.
  • Plunge the bowl; avoid chemical drain cleaners.
  • If issues return, schedule an inspection.
