Why is My Toilet Wobbling?

Is your toilet wobbling? A wobbly toilet is a common household issue, but there's no need to call a professional. We've got you covered!

If the base is wobbling, you may have an issue with your floor or closet flange. There could also be damage to your wax ring. Fixing this is easy. All you need to do is use shims to make your toilet sit level and replace the wax ring. An easy solution is to use a repositionable wax-free seal, allowing you to make multiple adjustments to your toilet.

If the tank is wobbling or leaking, check out our guide on how to fix a leaking toilet tank.
