A leaky toilet can lead to a lot of extra expenses. If you aren't careful, the water will get all over the floor, the wall, and even the bathtub and others things. Toilet leaking problems are the most common toilet problems. Anyone can face at least one time in lifetimes. You may probably be looking at how to solve toilet leaking problems. The following steps should help you diagnose and fix your leaky toilet as soon as possible:
Diagnosing the problem
When diagnosing a leak, you need to be sure that the leak is coming from the toilet. If the leak isn't coming from the toilet, then it's likely coming from another source. You can do this by looking at the pipe, toilet joined the line, old toilet line, toilet tank, joined seal, etc.

1) Check for obvious signs of a leak
The first step to take when your toilet starts leaking is to check for obvious signs of a leak. Check the floor for water and make sure nothing is leaking around the base of the toilet. It's also important to check behind your toilet for any cracks or holes in the wall or floor.
2) Unscrew the bolts holding the tank
If there are no leaks near your toilet or on the floor, then you will want to unscrew the bolts holding your toilet tank down. If you have an old corroded pipe running into your toilet, it may need check. In this case, if you find any leak, you will also want to replace any other related pipes that may be corroded as well.
3) Fixing the seal
One of the most common causes of a leaky toilet is a faulty seal. Fill in any holes or cracks with silicone sealant  If there are still leaks after you've cleaned up everything else and tightened all nuts on bolts, To fix this problem, all you need to do is remove any debris from inside the tank and clean out any hair or other gunk that has accumulated in the tank. After you've taken care of this, pour some water into the tank to test it. If you don't have any leaks after testing it once more, then congratulations! You just saved yourself some money and time by taking care of your own leak. If your toilet leaks again, then there was a more serious issue and you may need to call a plumber.
