"I had a really bad shower and toilet clog so I decided to contact flo-maxx and they sent 2 professionals, Garret and Raymond to do the job but I wasn’t sure if they would be able to clear the drain, they definitely cleared it super quick and also cleaned my floor afterwards. They finally left but there was a small leak from the toilet water line and I called them and they came back again to check it and fix it, no big deal they did great! 10/10"

"Anthony, a representative with Best Price Sewer and Plumbing, reached out to me by phone. He asked what issues we were having and asked me to take/send a photo of the sump pump. I did as he asked. Turns out it was the ejector pump and not the sump pump. He scheduled to come out the very next morning at 10am and he arrived right on time. Anthony was extremely nice, jovial, and very respectful of our home. He went downstairs to assess the problem and explained exactly what materials would be needed for the repair. He then ran out (for the parts) and said he would return in about 45 minutes. Again, returned right on time! Upon his return with his materials, he immediately got to work. My husband kept Anthony company as he worked. Anthony explained everything he was doing and why. As he worked, he and my husband discovered they had something in common (i.e. military). You could hear them talking/laughing - voices carrying through the floor as Anthony worked. Once Anthony was done, he ran a few tests to be sure everything was in working condition. He answered any questions that we had (he’s very knowledgeable and knows his stuff!). Before we knew it, Anthony was done. Right before he left, we discussed the flappers in the toilet bowls - another upcoming project. He thanked us and we thanked him. I HIGHLY recommend this company for all plumbing needs. They will be on my speed-dial from here on out! Thank you, Anthony!"

Customers say: True professional

"After trying several home remedies towards the end of a week we decided to secure professional help on a Saturday. Charlie returned our call within minutes and arranged to come towards the end of the day on Saturday. He explained what he was doing, was efficient, discovered and replaced an unrelated rusted pipe and cleaned up the inevitable unrestrained water from nearby surfaces."

"Cliff was amazing. I requested a Plumber and he was prompt at picking up my request. First time actually using Angi's list due to unforeseen circumstances, last minute but with Cliff's help we made it work. Cliff is very informative on what he was doing to get the job done and is very good at what he does. Cliff reassured me that everything would be alright after stressing about not being able to use my bathroom. He was both effective and efficient as well as professional. I will definitely request Cliff's service again if needed and recommend anyone to him in need of a good plumbing job. Thank you Cliff for all your help."

"Prompt service. Plumber Roy was professional and very informative. With every step, he would ask that I witness to better understand the reasoning. My only hang up was the price of the toilet removal/replacement. $250 seems steep."

Toilets questions, answered by experts

The toilet flange anchors to the subfloor, usually with wood screws or cement screws, but most of it should sit above floor level at full height. When a flange is flush with the subfloor or below it, it can lead to the creation of leak paths.

Toilets typically connect to your main vent stack, a vertical pipe that runs through all finished levels of your home and exits through the roof. It’s located behind the walls, but if you have an unfinished basement or a utility closet, you may find a portion of it running the vertical length of the space. Some basement toilets use an air admittance valve instead, which is a small vent located in the wall directly behind the toilet that extends upward a few feet from the drain.

The most common reasons a toilet won’t stop running are a faulty flapper or fill valve, improper fill height, or incorrect chain length. Luckily, all these issues are relatively easy to fix with parts you can find at a local hardware store. You can also call a plumber or toilet repair professional to solve the problem.

According to the Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC), the distance between your trap and the vent should be no more than 6 feet. For your vent to work properly, it needs to feed into the drain line within 6 feet of trapways that connect to it. Using this formula, you should be able to determine whether you will need multiple vent lines.

Basement toilets don’t always need a pump. However, it is the most common setup because plumbing systems use gravity to move waste away from the home. Basement toilets often sit below the home’s main sewage system, and installing a sewage ejector pump pushes the wastewater and sewage up to the main sewer line. Alternatively, you can use an upflush or macerator toilet that breaks down the waste and pushes it straight to the main sewer line rather than via a sewer line from the bathroom.
