What causes a toilet to leak from the base when flushing?

A toilet leaking from the base when you flush usually means the wax ring seal has failed. Loose or corroded closet bolts can also let water escape at the base. A cracked bowl or a flange set too low can cause leaks. A blockage can force water past the seal; we can camera-inspect if needed. On Time Experts repairs base leaks and related issues, often same day. We serve Dallas and Garland homes.
