"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

You generally cannot replace a 10-inch rough-in toilet with a 12-inch model without making significant plumbing updates. A 12-inch rough-in toilet will not fit a 10-inch rough-in space because the floor drain is in the wrong position. To accommodate the larger toilet, you would need to move the drainpipe, which could cost between $0.75 and $30 per linear foot, plus labor. In most cases, it is more cost-effective and simpler to purchase a new 10-inch rough-in toilet. However, it is possible to install a 10-inch rough-in toilet in a 12-inch space by using a longer connector.

When working on your bathroom floor tiling, you should always tile the floor first and then refit the toilet afterward. This has both practical and visual advantages—the tile will have a better seal, and the installation will look cleaner.

On the other hand, when you try to cut the tiles to fit around the toilet, you’re putting yourself at a disadvantage. It’s a lot more work, it’s hard to be precise, and mistakes or miscalculations can lead to future moisture damage to the tiling, grout, and subfloor.

Yes, many services include removing and disposing of old toilets. Confirm with your provider.

Usually it’s fine to leave a toilet clogged overnight, as long as it’s not close to overflowing. In some cases, the extra time may give the clog time to work itself out. For example, if it’s caused by an excess of toilet paper, letting it sit could result in the clog dissolving and you may be able to simply flush it away by the time you wake up. 

Only let it sit though if you have more than one toilet in the home.

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.
