Got called out to a South Lake Tahoe rental property where the property manager's contractors had spotted water pooling around the base of the toilet. Turned out to be more than just a bad seal. The wax ring had compressed unevenly and was letting water seep underneath, plus the aging supply line fittings showed mineral buildup and stress from years of use. We pulled the toilet, disconnected the supply lines, and swapped out both the wax ring and the deteriorating hardware with upgraded components that can handle the region's hard water. After reinstalling everything and pressure-testing all connections, the toilet's running leak-free now. Learn More about how Riley Heating Plumbing And Air handles toilet leaks right the first time. The property's flooring and substructure are protected from any further water damage.
