My Toilet Stopped Flushing, Why?

My toilet stopped flushing, is what a customer called in about last week, here in Sarasota. I asked my secretary exactly what our customer meant, and Lori said that’s exactly what she said. On the way to the call, I was contemplating all the things that would make the water closet stop flushing. Was it stopped up? Was it not filling with water? Was the tank lever broken? Was the flapper not connected to the the tank lever?

What is a Sewage Relief Valve?

What is a sewage relief valve?  Last week I blogged on this topic and received a lot of phone calls from people wanting to know exactly what this device actually looked like and how it works.  So I thought it might be a great idea to video what a sewage relief is and how it works. 

I had my video department post a video on You Tube on exactly what a sewage relief valve looks like and how it works.

How to find a cheap, affordable plumber in Sarasota or Bradenton?

Yes, is the answer to that question. In a perfect world people want plumbing to be cheap and affordable. However, the cheapest guy could end up costing you the most. It could be the handyman who thinks he knows how to do plumbing because he replaced flapper in his toilet. Did you know that with toilets today , there are more than 30 different flappers for all the different toilets that are being made? No longer does one flapper fit all. Also. some toilet tank parts have become very intricate, requiring a professional who knows how they work and can properly diagnosis the problem.
