the toilet.

realizing it. Don’t abuse your drain with substances that can easily be thrown away.

while turning it off, this is the most common mistake. Don’t try it
own because it require proper knowledge and skill to implement a fix
like that.

attempting any kind of a repair. Double check other localized valves around sinks and toilets as well as any water source.

basement. Neglecting this will cause frequent and serious damages to
your fixtures
