Every drop of water, crack, ant, royally freaks me out at this point. I can’t afford to rent. I own a shitty house that is a fixer upper. So frustrating.

    i had the toilet running issue. turned out i just needed a new seal for the bottom of the flush mechanism.

    was a little more expensive than i’d like on account of the fact that the mechanism in my toilet is no longer produced but managed to find one.

    Still cheaper than replacing the lot

      I’m not 100% sure what part is causing the running, so I’m just replacing everything. It’s all probably due to be replaced anyway lol

          I did. It looks a little rough, but doesn’t seem to be complete toast. There’s also another mechanism that might be malfunctioning. I adjusted it like I was instructed to and the dripping got worse.
