Is Your Toilet Running? You May Need a Replacement
Is your toilet running? Well, then you better go catch it!
Okay, okay, we joke, but the fact remains that a running toilet may be a sign of several home plumbing issues. We use our residential toilets multiple times every day. At 3 Mountains Home Services, we understand that you may not spend a great deal of time thinking (or wanting to think) about how much your household toilet or toilets are in use, but the truth is that they quite naturally suffer a great deal of wear and tear over time.
Running toilets are easy enough to repair, but if it’s happening frequently, it’s most likely time for a new toilet installation.
Our Portland Toilet Recommendations
Toilet upgrades are almost always a solid home investment decision. New toilets…

At 3 Mountains Home Services, our shelves are stocked and ready to go with the best of the best: Toto UltraMax and American Standard Cadet Pro toilet bowls. We suggest going with 1.28-gallon bowls which tend to conserve the most water.
Other Common Toilet Problems
