Running toilet or isolated toilet problem?
One toilet that runs, leaks, or needs repair is different from several drains backing up.
Not a single-fixture leak?
- Multiple drains backing up → Emergency drain help
- Sewage or basement floor drain overflow → Emergency drain help
- Drywall, flooring, or ceiling damage after the leak stopped → Repair after a leak

A running toilet, flapper issue, or leak at a single toilet is often a fixture-level repair. If the toilet bubbles when the shower runs or waste backs up into a tub, that is a main line issue and routes to Apex instead.
Common signs
- Toilet runs constantly between flushes
- Toilet leak at the base or tank (single toilet only)
- Handle or flapper issue at one toilet
- One toilet affected with no gurgling in other drains
What to do now
- Confirm no other fixtures are backing up
- Note whether the toilet bubbles when shower or sink runs
- Send photos of the toilet and any visible leak
- Request help describing the symptoms
