"We were pleased with the price and my husband said the owner was very easy to work with.  We knew this was a small job (not much money involved), and the owner came out himself to check things out and give a quote.  The bathroom is very small and hard to manuever, but we were disappointed that the workemen left scratches on doors and the wood frame.  No big deal, they can be cleaned up with a little Old English.  After the tub was installed, the area around the tub was plastered by the workmen that day and they said they were done.  Of course, since it was thick, it cracked while it dried.  But, the owner came out a day or so later and re-plastered it.  It cracked a little less during the curing time and my husband was able to fix it and repaint the bathroom.  If you don't have someone that is handy, keep this in mind.  While I love the new bathtub, there are a few concerns.  First, the scratches on the door and woodwork.  Hard to avoid with the size of this bathroom. So, that was almost understandable.   But, the men put their tools in the sink without protection.  This left surface scratches in a new sink.  While they were installing the tub, they mentioned that they would have to take out the toilet to fit it in.  Since we wanted a new toilet anyway, my husband went out and purchased a new toilet while they were working.  They installed the new toilet (rather than putting the old one back in, so it wasn't extra work), but after they did that, they stood on the brand new toilet cover with work shoes and put scratch marks on the cover!     During the last meeting with the owner, my husband showed him and he said he would bring a new toilet cover the next day.  My husband told him no rush ... but it's been about six weeks now, and we haven't heard anything.  The last thing is that while I was taking a bath, I noticed that one of the tub joints under the faucet was not caulked.  My husband did it himself. Not sure if these problems happened because it was a small job and almost a losing prop for the company.  But, I'm asked all the time for references and we (and my family) do have a lot more work we would like done.  As friendly and easy the company/owner is to work with, I can't recommend them without the caveat that you might need to have someone handy to "finish up". "

Toilets questions, answered by experts

Toilet seats have two mounting brackets on the back that accept mounting bolts. The bolts drop through the brackets, through two small holes on the top of your toilet, and then receive nuts to hold them in place on the bottom of the toilet. If you can’t see the bolt heads, you might need to pry up the mounting bracket cover, which is a plastic piece that hides and protects the bolts.

The main causes for a leaky toilet flapper include wear and tear or a broken or incorrectly installed toilet flapper chain. If your toilet flapper is torn or deteriorated, it can’t provide a proper seal to keep water from running. Meanwhile, a chain that has come loose, was moved, or just wasn’t installed right can prevent your flapper from fully closing.

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.

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.

If you don’t replace a toilet flapper, your toilet tank will continue to empty and fill repeatedly, wasting water and running up your utility bills. Checking the flapper is a good first guess when dealing with a constantly running toilet. However, if these problems continue after replacing the flapper, you may need to hire a plumber to check and fix any bigger problems.
