Plumbing: Toilets -Loose Toilet Issues
Toilets can become loose through normal use.
The two most common issues a loose toilet creates are an increased risk of leakage, and a potential for sewer gas to enter the house.
Tank Issues.
Loose tanks are usually a relatively simple repair. In most toilets, there are two bolts that connect the tank (Upper portion) to the bowl (bottom portion). Gently tightening these bolts and maybe replacing the washers that seal the tank bolts are sometimes all that is required. Obviously, if there is a crack or some other issue that would cause the tank to be leaking it might be necessary for a replacement part or even a new toilet.
