No, it is not a sign that you need to go on a Jenny Craig diet. Cracking is a very common thing to happen. It happens because either your toilet is getting a little older or it encountered some impact. Usually, if your toilet has a crack we recommend a brand new toilet. But, do not get all cracked-up about it (haha). There are a couple things you can do to solve the tectonic shift that happened on your toilet.
There is a way to fix your toilet at home. But, as always, if you feel uncomfortable with the state of your toilet..Call Carter’s My Plumber to do the job (317)-589-9999. We can also replace your cracked toilet with a brand new one as well.
