    Toilet not flushing properly

    We don't know. You didn't say what the problem is. A leaking supply valve will not cause a toilet to malfunction.

    I keep looking for a complaint here. Are you saying the toilet clogged when the kids were home alone? Hmm! Makes you wonder what went down that toilet when you were away, Purchase and use the auger and get back to me with the results. Good luck, Tom
