"Tenant's child lodged a foreign object (among other things) in the toilet. Rob came out quickly, and diligently snaked the drain, eventually removing the toy. Spent at least 10 mins before it budged, but Rob was determined to retrieve the object."

"Monday morning began with the dreaded task of finding a local plumber to unclog toilet drain. No sooner had I requested a plumber, Jeff responded right away and was here within half hour. After trying to unclog the toilet, it became apparent that there was a bigger problem. He took the lids off the septic tank and the tank was about to overflow, the filter was clogged. And I had the tank pumped just three months ago. So that's a mystery. But I am so happy Jeff took care of it for a very reasonable cost. He's my new go to plumber, and I would highly recommend him."

"Mr. Digby saved my life! He IS service MAGIC! No. I take that back! He is service MIRACLE, because he's in a class of his own! My kitchen pipes froze, cracked, and water proceeded to gush all over my kitchen floor and basement. I didn't know what to do. Mr. Digby basically swept in and repaired all of the damage and then some. How Mr. Digby does customer service is how customer service should be done in general; it should be courteous, prompt, professional, dependable, and reasonably priced. And his plumbing craftsmanship was excellent. He also explained things as he was fixing them, so he treated me with such respect. THANK YOU SO MUCH!!"

"I had the pleasure of working with Gentille Plumbing for a full renovation of my home, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the results. He handled everything — water, gas, and sewer — with the highest level of expertise and professionalism. From start to finish, he was punctual, respectful, and incredibly detail-oriented. Every aspect of the plumbing installation was done efficiently and with great care. He communicated clearly throughout the project, kept the worksite tidy, and ensured that everything met code and functioned flawlessly. It’s rare to find tradespeople who combine technical skill with such a strong work ethic and reliability. Gentille Plumbing delivered top-notch service, and I would highly recommend Him to anyone needing quality plumbing work — whether it’s a renovation, new construction, or repairs. Thank you, Gentille Plumbing, for a job extremely well done!"

"I have had Spencer Home Services work on my house before and they were recently here again on an unrelated issue. Rich came out and solved the problem like any good plumber would. The difference is Rich’s attitude, respectful of our needs and time was outstanding. As a homeowner it’s great to know you can trust your repairman to do a good job."

"Plumber arrived within the specified time period set by the company. He was a professional with 17 years experience and was quite knowledgeable. He installed the toilet that I provided in an efficient manner, tested for leaks and cleaned up the area. Carried the old toilet to the curb. He also put a new handle that I provided on the shower valve that stopped the leak, thus avoiding a further cost to us!"

Toilets questions, answered by experts

Depending on the issue and materials, costs range from $150 to $500.

Yes, an ambitious homeowner could decide to replace their own toilet. A person attempting to do a DIY toilet installation should keep in mind that the average toilet weighs between 100 and 120 pounds. That means that you'll need to be comfortable lifting and carrying your old toilet and replacement toilet during both phases of the project. Additionally, homeowners will need to have basic plumbing knowledge to avoid plumbing problems that could result in messy, expensive water damage in their bathrooms. Hiring a plumbing pro from the get-go can help you avoid damaging your plumbing or your new toilet.

Putting caulk around a toilet’s base where it touches the flooring can help hold the toilet in place. A more effective way is using caulk with plastic shim wedges. Place the shims underneath the base to steady and stabilize the toilet. Add some caulk to help keep the shims in place and provide a stronger and more lasting stabilization effect.

The Thanksgiving holiday period is one of the busiest times of the year for plumbers. Both Thanksgiving Day and the day after, often called Black Friday or "Brown Friday" by plumbing professionals, see a significant increase in service requests. This is because a house full of guests, large holiday meals, and unfamiliarity with the home's plumbing can lead to clogged drains, garbage disposal issues, and sewer line backups. Outside of the holidays, the busiest weekdays for plumbers are typically Monday and Tuesday, as many people discover plumbing problems over the weekend but wait to call for service. Despite the holiday, you can rest assured that many plumbers work on Thanksgiving and Black Friday to handle the surge in emergency calls.

Start by gutting the old fixtures and features that need to be removed, such as the tile, vanity, and flooring. You may benefit by removing the toilet, even if you intend to use the same one. Next, install the new shower or tub, followed by the flooring, and then the drywall, which you should then paint. After that, install your new cabinets, vanity, countertop, sink, and faucet, in that order. Replace your light fixture next. Lastly, reconnect the toilet.
