    I've seen a friend's toilet, because it was not installed properly when it was installed, so the place where the toilet is in contact with the ground is always leaking, and if you encounter such a situation, it is indeed quite annoying.

    Generally speaking, if the bottom of the toilet has been leaking, it must have been installed at that time, the sewage outlet on the ground and the sewage outlet of the toilet bowl did not match firmly, so because the toilet itself will always have a certain amount of water over there, and then it will slowly leak out from the place where it is not tight, and after a long time, the bottom of the toilet will be black around a circle, which is really smelly and ugly!

    I haven't encountered this situation myself, and I haven't repaired it, but when I was repairing the bathroom sink, I bought a repaired thing on Taobao. It seems to be called something called a beautiful seam, and the black seam used for the tile interface is very good, but I read the manual, and it is also very useful for leaks at the bottom of the toilet. However, before using that thing, you must keep the toilet dry, and then after applying it, keep it dry for 24 hours and do not touch it.

    Then, when it's completely dry, it'll be hard like a tile. This stuff should be able to alleviate your toilet leakage a bit.

    However, this is still a symptom rather than a cure, if it is a problem of its own installation, I think the best way is to find someone to install the toilet again, re-sealing, in this way, it will definitely solve the problem of water leakage. However, if your toilet is too old, it may be that the tile of the toilet is cracked and the leakage is caused by it. It's still the easiest and fastest!

    Leaking toilets is indeed a particularly common thing in life.

    I have two bathrooms in my house, one for the living room. The other is the bathroom in the master bedroom. The bathroom in the living room is a squatting toilet, while the master bedroom has a toilet.

    I remember when I first installed the toilet, I was very happy. I think the toilet is much easier to use than the general toilet, and it also saves space and looks more beautiful. I was so excited!

    It's a pity that the toilet looks tall, but it's just like that. It is not as easy to use as our ordinary toilets, especially after the toilet is installed, it is especially easy to seep water after a long time.

    My toilet doesn't leak when it is first installed. After using it for less than half a year, I noticed that there was always inexplicable moisture on the floor in the bathroom, and I observed it later.

    Only to find out that this toilet bowl actually began to leak. No way, I can only mop it with an absorbent mop every time, as long as it doesn't flush a lot, this sleep won't leak out a lot.

    In fact, if you want to completely solve this problem with a leaky toilet, you can only choose to reinstall it, and it is very likely that the floor will be knocked off. Why, most of the leaks are due to the toilet base not fitting perfectly with the floor.

    In my house, the floor is installed first, and then the toilet is installed. If you change it, install the toilet first and make sure that the water leakage prevention is done in advance. Then lay the floor tiles and there will be no water leakage.

    The toilet is leaking, and if you want to solve this problem completely, you may have to renovate and reinstall the floor together. If you just want to alleviate this problem, you can try the following methods.

    It's just a slight leak, but it's a pity to re-brush a layer of glue on the toilet base. That's how it is in my house, when the base is re-glued, it doesn't leak. However, after a long time, it will still leak.

    Use cement to seal the leakage, but this will affect the appearance. But water leakage will not occur again, anyway, both methods have their own advantages and disadvantages!

    Diligent students, you must pay attention to the hygiene next to the toilet base! Only by keeping it clean and dry will water leaks not occur all the time.

    1. Check whether the flush switch is reset. The plastic flush switch of some flush toilets will occasionally get stuck after being worn for a long time and cannot be restored. Generally, the switch can be reset by repeating it several times. Check whether the rubber gasket of the drain port under the ball valve is aged and the seal is not tight, and the problem needs to be replaced.

    2. Check whether the connection between the spherical float of the water tank and the water inlet switch is loose, whether the float is in place and the switch is not closed, resulting in the water inlet does not stop, and the water flows out from the upright drain pipe after the water is full, as long as the connection between the float and the water valve switch is tightened. If the rubber ball valve is damaged, the seal is not tight, and there is a water leak, it needs to be replaced immediately.

    3. Water tank leakage, basically a problem with the drain valve, check the situation of the rubber plug at the outlet of the water tank, if the rubber plug at the outlet is damaged or blocked by foreign objects, the rubber plug is not tightly blocked, and it will also cause the toilet to flow more than once. If the water supply pipe in the tank is not placed correctly, it will also affect it to a greater or lesser extent.

Open the lid on the back of the toilet, and you press it, and you'll find that something lifts up, and then it leaks because it's loose, and it can't go back, so you just press it down, and it's been a long time, that's it.
