"Their employee arrived and was very professional, knowledgeable, and helpful. Rather than just doing work and charging me for something that might solve the issue, he walked me through some options. We decided a new toilet would be best. Unfortunately with COVID-19 protocols, I have not been able to have them back. They went ahead and ordered all the materials needed ahead of time and are storing it until we can get the job. I look forward to having them back when this is all through."

"He was Responsive and on time. Unfortunately the leak in our toilet did not show up for him while he was there So that problem remains. He did fix our shower and it works like a charm. Was very conscious of cost and our time. Very much appreciated. He helped us while we were dealing with some difficult family circumstances."

"From the time they started they worked and finished the job in one day. They had to buy a new faucet and adapt to the size of the pipes. I was thrilled with the results. I would recommend them. Any other plumbing work I need will be done by them. Joan Schaffer"

"Our septic tank was full,but we didn't know where it was located. Had 3 other companies out here,who basically raped us for koney with 0 results except one HUGE MESS and that last guy,who charged us $85 just to come out and tell us he does not work on trailers and that underneath would have to be scrubbed and bleached with plastic layed down for him to even consider going under to find the tank... Jared was great from phone call to service,he is a true WORKER,a rare breed that does what it takes to get the job done and satisfy his customers. Happy to say we've found our plumber for future needs.HIGHLY RECCOMMEND him if you want prompt,quality service"

Toilets questions, answered by experts

Toilet handles can get stuck for a couple of reasons, but it’s commonly an issue with the chain. Remove the lid and check the chain’s connection, running from the flapper to the handle arm. Sometimes the chain gets snagged on or against another part of the tank. 

The chain might not have the right tension. For example, a chain that’s too short can make the handle feel stuck. Check that there’s some slack in the chain. Old, worn-out flappers can get stuck, too. In this case, you’ll need to see which size toilet flapper you need.

Flushing the toilet only to realize it’s clogged can cause anxiety. To avoid a clogged toilet, use less toilet paper. If you notice that the toilet is flushing and refilling slower than usual, you can use a plunger to clear clogs in the S-trap. If that doesn’t work, call a plumber to check your system and possibly clear the drain lines.

A standard toilet flange should fit snugly into the outflow pipe and sit level with the subfloor. Installing a new one without first removing the old one will make it impossible to form a seal and keep the toilet bowl bolted securely in place. 

However, if you’re dealing with leakage or wobbling because you’ve installed a new type of bathroom tile (making the floor taller), you may be able to avoid fully replacing the flange by opting for a toilet flange extender. Extenders typically come in kits for easy DIY installation, fit over the existing flange, and bring the drain connection higher.

The most practical and common setup is a toilet that connects with the sewer line or a septic tank. However, it is possible to install a toilet without a sewer line, and this can be particularly helpful in basements with no or outdated plumbing. An increasingly popular option is an environmentally friendly composting toilet. Other waterless options include incinerating or dry flush toilets, which pull the waste into an airtight container.

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.
