Running toilets from hardened flappers and sticky fill valves
Why it happens here
Cimmaron Oaks water carries enough calcium and magnesium that rubber flappers stiffen and fill valve seals stick. Most flappers here fail in three to five years, well before the manufacturer's expected lifespan, and the running water drives up bills quietly.
Our approach
We replace flappers with Korky or Fluidmaster models rated for hard water and flush the tank to remove sediment. On every running-toilet call, we also test the fill valve and shut-off valve so you are not back in three months with the same problem.
