Toilet leaking at the base — Elche, Valencian Community
Water pooling around the base of a toilet usually means the wax ring seal between the toilet and the floor flange has failed. Every flush pushes a small amount of wastewater past the broken seal and onto the floor, creating a sanitation hazard and potential subfloor damage. Left unrepaired, the moisture rots the plywood subfloor and can even compromise floor joists. A licensed plumber will pull the toilet, inspect the flange, replace the wax ring (or upgrade to a rubber gasket), and re-set the toilet — typically a one-hour repair costing $150–$350.
