Toilet only partially flushes:
The main items to look for in a toilet that only flushes partially are too much slack in the lift chain, no water or low water level in the tank, or a flapper that is improperly installed.
Water pooling on the floor around the toilet base:
If you have noticed water pooling or collecting around the base of your toilet it is imperative that you address this problem right away to avoid costly damage to your homes subfloor! Typically you want to begin by checking to ensure that all connections; bolts, ballcock, fill valve, supply tube, wax ring, and coupling nut are secure. If everything appears to be nice and tight but your toilet is still leaking, call out a plumber to fix the problem right away! Don’t let an inexpensive repair balloon into hundreds or even thousands of dollars in flooring damage.
Toilet wont flush:
When dealing with a toilet that won’t flush the first thing to check is the handle, flush lever, and flapper valve. Again you will want to make sure the connections are secure and functioning properly. Common causes of a toilet that won’t flush include an over or under tightened handle, a broken or bent lift arm, a disconnected lift arm and lift chain in the tank behind the toilet.

Slow filling toilet:
If you toilet is filling very slowly it is likely that the water supply valve is not open all of the way. Turn the valve to open the water supply and give it a test flush. If it fills normally you have fixed your problem. If not, call a professional to diagnose and repair your toilet.
