"Bunch of great guys, really nice and knew a lot. Cleared my line and pumped my tank in no time. Price was really reasonable as well. If you need septic work done these are the guys to call"
"It was not a septic system problem. It was a plumbing problem I had. Tree roots had grown into my plumbing system, causing my toilet and tub to backup. Scott gave good customer. He also had to fix other plumbing issues I had. He did very good work, I would recommend this company to do your plumbing issues. Also the price was affordable."
"Called Advance Plumbing Service in reference to my toilets not flushing and my tub not draining. I didn't expect anyone to be able to come out because it was about 7:30 PM. To my surprise Mike explained he could have a technician out within a half an hour. When the tech arrived I explained the problem and he immediately started looking for a sewer line cleanout access around my house. When an access could not be located, the technician explained he could dig up the line and install an access for any future issues that may arise. I liked the idea of having an access permanently installed, but as late as it was, I didn't want to do this at night. I asked what my options were and John, the tech, said he could pull the toilet and access the line that way for a price of $90.00. I really wanted the cleanout installed and asked how much it would be to have him come back the next morning to do that. He gave me a price of $350. I agreed to that and he called his shop to set the appointment up for me. John then explained he was going to pull the toilet and "run the line", as he put it, so I would have drainage. I asked what this charge for this would be and he said the $350 would cover it all. That night John pulled my toilet, cleared the line, reset my toilet and cleaned up so well that I could not tell he'd even been in my bathroom. He showed up the next morning right on schedule, dug up the drain line, installed the cleanout and again did such a good job of cleaning up, that I could hardly tell he'd even been digging in my yard. Both of the people from this company that I dealt with were extremely courteous and professional and I was very satisfied. "
We initiated a service request and Jason responded immediately. He put us on his schedule for 7/15/14, arrived at the appointed time and repaired our leaky shower faucet in the bedroom and installed new toilet handles in two bathrooms. He was professional, informative, and polite. He lets you know the depth of the problem and materials required for repairs. His work is EXCELLENT! We will definitely use Jason Faircloth for future projects.
"Called almost immediately after I put the request in on HomeAdvisor. Showed up on time, gave me a very reasonable estimate and did a very professional install of a new toilet and sink/vanity. I will definitely be calling them back to install toilet and sink/vanity in my other bathroom. Great job."
While the toilet bowl and toilet tank require haul away to your curb, landfill, or recycling center, you can dispose of your old, used toilet seat in your regular garbage collection. If your toilet seat is plastic or duroplast, you can even recycle it instead at a local recycling facility.
If your toilet is still leaking after replacing the toilet flapper, then you may not have installed the toilet flapper correctly. Double-check that you have placed the flapper over the overflow tube correctly, and check the flapper chain is at the right length. If your toilet is still leaking, then you may have another problem on hand. For example, you may need to replace the toilet wax ring or replace the toilet fill valve if your toilet is wobbly and leaking from around the base.
Yes, you can have a toilet without a septic tank. However, it will have to be a composting toilet. Composting toilets work similarly to aerobic septic systems in that the waste, which sits in a separate compartment below the toilet itself, is slowly broken down by aerobic bacteria. These toilets typically have a vent to get rid of harmful gasses with a fan, which requires a battery. You will have to dispose of waste in the toilet manually every three weeks to every three months, depending on how many people are using the toilet.
Yes, you can pour water down the toilet to help it flush. For each flush, you’ll need 1 to 2 gallons of water for newer toilets or 3 to 5 gallons of water for older toilets. Rather than dumping the entire bucket in all at once, pour the water in slowly for the best results. If you’re pouring water down the toilet to help it flush after a clog, only use 1 gallon of hot water.
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.
