Every Toilet Repair

Running Toilet

Flapper, fill valve, flush valve, overflow tube. Most jobs done in 20 minutes with parts in-truck.

Leak at the Base

Wax ring failure or cracked flange. Pull the toilet, replace the ring, reset and seal. Inspect subfloor for damage.

Persistent Clogs

Closet auger first; if recurring, camera-scope to find the cause (root intrusion, low-flow design issue, line slope).

Wobbling or Loose Toilet

Usually a corroded flange or rotted floor under the toilet. Repair the flange, shim correctly, re-bed the wax.

Weak or Slow Flush

Mineral buildup in the rim jets, partially closed shutoff, or aged flapper. Often a 30-minute fix.

Full Toilet Replacement

Old toilet hauled away, new one installed and tested. We carry every major brand.

Why Toilet Repairs Add Up; and How to Stop That

Four common toilet patterns and how a careful repair beats a series of bandaids.

Diagnose Before You Replace

A running toilet is almost always a $20 part; not a new toilet. We diagnose first, replace only when the bowl itself is the problem (cracked porcelain, design flaw, hairline leak).

  • Check flapper, fill valve, flush valve first
  • Replace the bowl only when justified
  • Rough quote before tearing into anything

Wax Ring Done Right

Most leak-at-base jobs come back because the wax ring was rushed. We pull the toilet, inspect the flange, replace any rotted subfloor patch, and set the new ring with the toilet level.

  • Inspect the flange (don’t skip it)
  • Address rotted subfloor before reset
  • Set the toilet level; wobble = leak again

Clogs That Keep Coming Back

A toilet that clogs once a month isn’t a clog problem; it’s either the toilet (low-flow design vs household use), the flange/trapway, or the line beyond. We diagnose the cause instead of selling you another snaking.

  • Camera-scope when clogs repeat
  • Toilet-specific vs line-specific diagnosis
  • Quote the structural fix when needed

Replacement With the Old Hauled Away

When replacement is the right call, we carry every major brand, or we’ll install one you’ve already bought. The old unit goes with us; you don’t deal with disposal.

  • Most major brands stocked
  • Customer-supplied toilets installed
  • Old unit hauled away at no extra

Toilet Repair FAQ

Quick answers for the most common toilet trouble.

Why is my toilet running between flushes?
Nine times out of ten, it’s the flapper (the rubber seal at the bottom of the tank) or the fill valve. Both parts are inexpensive and replace in about 15 minutes. If you swap them and the leak persists, the flush-valve seat is worn or the overflow tube is cracked; that one needs a plumber.
My toilet wobbles. Is that a problem?
Yes; eventually. Wobble breaks the wax-ring seal, which leaks slowly and can rot the subfloor. Usually it’s a corroded flange (the metal ring under the toilet) or rotted floor underneath. Either way, the toilet has to come up to fix it.
How do I know if I need a new toilet vs a repair?
Replace if: the porcelain is cracked, the bowl design just won’t flush properly even with a fresh flapper/valve, or you’re upgrading for water efficiency. Otherwise repair; most toilets last 25+ years with parts swaps.
My toilet keeps clogging. Why?
Three usual causes: a low-flow toilet that’s undersized for the household, an obstruction in the trapway (often a small object), or a problem in the line past the toilet (slope, partial blockage, root intrusion). A camera scope tells us which.
Can I install a toilet I bought myself?
Yes. We install customer-supplied toilets at the same labor rate as our supplied units. Bring it home; we install, level, seal, and haul the old unit.
