Why is water sitting under my brand new toilet?

We’ve had our original plumber back 2/3 times, he’s replaced the waste pipe connector in case it was the seal, but it’s still wet under there and he can’t seem to find any problem! Is it possible that on a brand new toilet there is a very fine crack or fault in the porcelain that would be invisible to the naked eye?

Is it normal for a toilet pan to leak?

The pan had a small crack in the porcelain trap and was continuously dripping tiny amount of water. I’m quite sure from what you describe it’s the toilet. Have a last intensive check with paper around the toilet to be 100% sure and if you don’t find anything, I’m sure it’s that. It’s not the installer’s fault, this is very rare to happen.

What to do if you have water sitting under your toilet?

I can slide a couple of sheets of kitchen roll or a tea towel under the base of the toilet (we held off sealing it to the floor) from front to back and they start sucking up water around level with the fixings to the floor. When I slide the paper or towel back out it is sodden… i imagine there is quite fair bit of water there.

What to do if the base of your toilet is leaking?

To fix a toilet that is leaking at the base, you will first need to remove the toilet then replace the wax ring and the toilet bolts, if you have determined that the bowl is not cracked. Turn off the water supply to the toilet buy turning the shut off valve clockwise.

Why is my toilet still leaking after replacing washers?

I replaced all parts including washers. And still leak is there. I shut the water, drained the tank and poured into the tank just enough water to where it meets the flapper. Not touching the flapper just before it, and leak started until that small amount of water drained out. Please help
