Fixing a Running ToiletQuick DiagnosisYour toilet is probably running because the flapper (the rubber piece at the bottom of the tank) is old and not sealing properly. This is the #1 cause and the easiest fix.
DIY or Pro? -- Definitely DIY!This is a 10-minute, $8 fix. No tools needed beyond your hands.
Steps1. Lift the tank lid -- Set it on a towel so it does not crack.
2. Find the flapper -- round rubber piece at the bottom, attached to a chain.
3. Flush and watch -- does the flapper fall back and seal?
4. Turn off water -- twist the valve behind the toilet clockwise.
5. Remove old flapper -- it unhooks from two posts.
6. Take it to the hardware store -- match the size.
7. Hook new one on -- reverse of removal.
8. Turn water back on. Done!
Cost: $5-10 at any hardware store
