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

If your toilet isn’t flushing properly, try a plunger and check the tank flapper and chain. If it still won’t clear, Summers Plumbing Heating & Cooling can diagnose clogs, tank issues, loose parts, or leaks and provide same-day repair in Kokomo and nearby areas. If water is rising, we can advise you by phone on shutting off the water supply. We also handle replacements if repair isn’t practical.

Quick checks:

• Use a plunger once or twice.
• Ensure the water supply valve is fully open.
• Look for a stuck flapper or loose chain.
