"I was up at 4 AM on a Friday with a leaking toilet and went on Angi to request some quotes thinking I would get a response a few hours later. Daniel called me back at 4:07 AM and was at my house by 9 AM to give me a free estimate. He was kind, friendly, and professional, and I could tell it’s a family operation. The job ended up being a lot bigger than either of us expected but he was able to get a professional out here to put a camera down my drain later that day and had a crew out to start the work the next morning, which I appreciated since it was Saturday. The whole crew, Gio, Carlos, Juan, and Daniel’s son, were kind and professional, did great work, and they finished in less than 2 days. By Sunday evening I had my brand new, working toilet and all new plumbing. Excellent experience working with Daniel and crew."

"I was less than happy with Rubin. While he was personable and able to change out the workings of 2 toilets and opened the exhaust (?) for the dishwasher to sink, he balked at plunging the line from one toilet. I did it after he left. I asked him to change aerators on five faucets since i was unable to turn them. At no charge he successfully changed two, but left three in worse condition. Now I'm reminded of him every time I use those sinks. Two of the three worked just fine, but I had asked him to change them because the others were being replaced. My mistake. & If it ain't broke don't fix it;. I wish the experience had been better as I would have liked to count on him to be our plumber in the future."
I’m a water treatment operator and backflow specialist with a lot of plumbing apprenticeship experience. I still don’t have my contractor’s license yet but I can sweat copper and brass, clear drains, install toilets, and so much more.
With over 10 years experience in the handyman service and construction field, while also working 16 years in law enforcement, ive discovered that my passion is providing a service and bringing relief and a peace of mind to the customer and to provide overall a sense of trustworthyness, i enjoy the trade of carpentry and enjoy building wood furniture. helping customers in providing maintenance in their home is also something i enjoy doing, from toilet/faucet replace, to replacing or installing fans or light fixtures, installing new water heaters, accent walls and more. free quotes reliable and local. \n
"All went well. He explained why he had to put a double ring for the toilet and also gave me other tips as we talked. Very nice and friendly young man. For the water line, it apparently had the wrong connection leading from the water pipe (reason why refrigerator installers would not connect icemaker), so he had to go to a hardware store to get the correct part. If I had to find something I didn't like about the work that was done, it would be the fact that he had to leave the cover off that goes over the water pipe that sticks out of the wall. It wouldn't fit back over the pipe because he had to saw some of it off, therefore leaving the hole exposed. It is purely cosmetic and I can live with it, as no one can really see it. Overall, very happy and satisfied with work performed."

You definitely can over-tighten toilet tank bolts. Unlike some other materials, porcelain can’t bend or flex, so when you over-tighten a screw into it, it could break against the added pressure. Only tighten them as much as needed to keep them in place and firm; any more and you could risk breaking the porcelain.
No, the pink ring in your toilet bowl isn’t a hard water stain but a type of bacteria called Serratia marcescens. This bacteria can also cause pinkish stains in other areas of your bathroom, like around your tub, shower curtains, and faucets. Thankfully, it’s considered to be harmless. However, if you or anyone in your household is immunocompromised, it can cause issues like urinary tract infections. You can clean the pink ring with bleach and a plastic brush. Wear gloves and goggles when using bleach, and always work in a well-ventilated room.
Your toilet handle might not come back up if the nut is loose or the bolt threads are stripped. Try to tighten the mounting nut and wrap plumber’s tape around the handle bolt to fix stripped threads. It’s possible the handle was improperly installed. If that’s the case, you can use the instructions above to correct the handle’s position.
You’ll likely pay between $300 and $450 to unclog your toilet with Roto-Rooter. However, the price could change depending on if the clog has caused a lot of damage, which your plumbing pro will want to inspect during your service appointment. Keep in mind that you won’t get a quote from Roto-Rooter over the phone. They have to send a pro out for an in-person cost estimate. You can also attempt to snake your own clog for a lot less, and simple drain snakes cost no more than $50.
The cost to install a new toilet typically runs from $225 to $530. This doesn’t include the price of the toilet itself, which can cost $90 to $1,500 depending on the model and features you choose. You can save money if you choose to install a toilet yourself. However, you might want to hire a pro for this project.
"Due to the many complexities of replacing a toilet flange, it is typically a job best left to the pros," says Jeff Botelho, Angi Expert Review Board member and plumber. "Many times it isn't as simple and straightforward as 'pop off the old one and pop on a new one' because the flange is either glued on (PVC/ABS), soldered on (brass/copper), or caulked in place with a lead & oakum joint (cast iron) and none of these things can be easily reversed without years of training and repetitive practice."
