One day last week i called a plumber, I went to use the bathroom and tried to flush the toilet like I normally do. I pushed the handle, but nothing happened. I tried jiggling it a little, but nothing changed, so I looked in the tank and noticed that the chain connecting the handle to the inner mechanism had broken. My wife would have begged me to pay for plumber Austin TX, but for a job this small, I elected to fix it myself.
Since I would already have to do work on the toilet, I bought a new flapper to install. I had a feeling the flapper would need replacing soon, so it was better to do it sooner than later. Both items were purchased from my local hardware store for a low price. I wasted a little time in the store looking at some of the newer models of toilets.
Replacing the flapper took more work than replacing the chain because I had to drain the water from the tank to do it, but it wasn't a hard job to do. All of the repairs took 15 minutes, and my wife congratulated me on a job well done, and then asked me to fix the sink.
