- Toilet Repair/ReplacementThe most common cause for a running toilet is overflow water leaking down into the bowl from the tank via the overflow tube. This happens when there’s too much water in the tank. You can adjust the water level by adjusting the height of the float. To lower the water in a toilet with a float arm, loosen or tighten the screw until the float arm lowers. To lower the water in a toilet with a column float attached to the fill valve, loosen the screw or clip, push down the float, and tighten everything back up again.

- Gas Leaks Detection/RepairSince natural gas is colorless and odorless, a chemical called mercaptan is added to your gas supply to produce a rotten egg smell that alerts you to a gas leak. If you smell that foul odor or hear hissing sounds near your gas appliances or gas line, do not use any electronic items in the house and leave the property immediately. Do not use a landline or cell phone while on the property. Once in a safe location, call your local gas company to report the leak.
