"Castle Services of Ithaca, which we contacted through Home Advisor, is terrific. They scheduled us right away, came on time, worked quickly and professionally, respected our need for social distancing, and even picked up a new faucet and disposal cover for us and installed everything excellently the next day! We couldn t be more pleased with their work and service! They went out of their way to be accommodating and to help us. They deserve an A+++ rating!"

"This is the second time that Tom from Areti has come to help us with appliance installation and, on this visit, replacing a cast iron sink. It was a difficult job because of how the initial installation had been made when the house was built, but Tom figured out how to get the job done effectively efficiently. Couldn't be happier with how the job turned out!"

Toilets questions, answered by experts

The toilet should rest 10, 12, or 14 inches from the back wall. As for other clearances, 15 inches is the minimum distance from the flange to any side wall or nearby fixture, including the shower, tub, and sink. Modern codes also require at least 24 inches of clear space in front of the toilet.

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.

While gasket-sealed PVC flanges are the type most commonly found in homes, flanges come in a range of different materials, including copper, brass, stainless steel, cast iron, and aluminum, that pros sometimes secure with glue. If this is the case in your bathroom, the replacement is a job better left to the pros.

Silicone-based caulk is known for its waterproofing qualities, so it’s the best option for any bathroom area. While it’s often more expensive, it will provide a better, longer-lasting seal than acrylic or latex caulk. Use it along the base of the toilet to prevent leaks and keep the area clean and protected.

If you have to hold the toilet handle (also called the toilet lever) down to flush, you probably have a chain problem. A chain that cannot fully lift the flapper will close too early and not clear the toilet bowl. Try adjusting the chain length so there’s about ½ inch of slack.
