Toilet Repair and Installation
Toilets are one of the most common plumbing calls because their mechanisms wear and their seals age. Toilet repair addresses running, leaking, weak, or double flushes; installation covers replacements and new fixtures set and sealed correctly.
Common reasons you may need this service
- The toilet keeps running after flushing.
- Water pools around the base.
- The flush is weak or needs two tries.
- The toilet rocks or isn't level.
- You're replacing an old or inefficient toilet.
Typical tasks and considerations
- Diagnosing the fill, flapper, or flush mechanism.
- Replacing worn internal parts.
- Resetting or replacing the wax ring seal.
- Setting and leveling a new toilet.
- Checking the supply line and shutoff.
Common problems and possible causes
Running toilet
Usually a flapper that no longer seals or a misadjusted fill valve. Replacing the worn part stops the running.
Leak at the base
A failed wax ring lets water seep out with each flush. Resetting the toilet on a new seal resolves it.
Weak flush
Mineral buildup in the rim jets or a partially clogged trap weakens the flush. Cleaning restores it.
