What Should I Do if My Toilet Doesn’t Flush?

There’s nothing worse than flushing your toilet and seeing the water start to rise instead of going down the drain. A clogged toilet is definitely a plumbing emergency that Drain Doctor is equipped to help with. There are a few reasons your toilet may be clogged:

• The flapper is failing to seal properly
• The amount of water in the toilet tank is too low
• The lift chain is damaged or broken
• Your toilet is clogged

If your toilet isn’t flushing or is backed up, contact Drain Doctor right away so we can assist in this emergency situation. 

What Are Signs of a Hot Water Heater Failure?

Another common plumbing emergency is your hot water heater failing. An unfortunate result of this happening is your house flooding.

While your hot water heater is specifically designed to last for years, the hot water heater can eventually break down. You want to look out for signs that it’s failing before it’s too late.

Some of these signs include:

• You’re getting less or no hot water
• You notice a leak around the base of the water heater
• You hear gurgling or banging sounds 
• The water is discolored, rusty, or dirty

All of these signs point to your water heater about to fail. Contact us at any time of the day if you notice any of these symptoms.
