"Sam was very professional, courteous, and knowledgeable. He even gave me tips to keep my plumbing in check. He replaced a garbage disposal, unclogged a drain, repaired toilet, and replaced a plastic pipe. Pricing was fair and got discounts. I chose Henco based on reviews and their high standing with the BBB. So glad I found this company! They have a customer for life."

"The plumber didn t tell me before he installed it that the handle I bought for the toilet didn t fit right and would cause the lid to fall down. Also was a little overly friendly, giving my dog a treat without asking."
"I will definitely hire Anchor Plumbing for my next project. They worked within my budget and even did a little extra. Their suggestions were well explained. Derek and Carlos worked very fast and consulted with me throughout the project. Thanks"
"This company was easy to work with and offered competitive pricing. I paid 1800 for a 50 gal water heater installment when other companies were asking for 2800. They were on time, professional, and got our water heater installed quickly."
First, check that you have cut off the water supply to your toilet. This is a project that can only be done safely if running water cannot reach your toilet fixture. If you're seeing water trickle out after you've confirmed that the water supply is shut off, you can probably rest assured that what you're seeing isn't a problem. It's common for leftover water to spill out when you're removing your toilet's fill valve. If something goes wrong while you're working on your toilet, you'll need to look at your home's policy to see if your homeowner insurance covers water damage.
The biggest sign that your flange leaks is if you notice water at the base of the toilet. The cause is likely due to a poor flange installation, so you might have issues with loose bolts, an uneven flange, or a cracked plastic flange. Add a deteriorating wax seal to this, and you have a recipe for disaster. The best solution is to shut off the water valve, replace the toilet flange, and seal it with a new wax ring.
While you don’t have to run out and immediately buy a new toilet at the first sign of a clog, if the toilet keeps clogging because it’s a low-flow or poorly designed model, a new toilet may be the way to go. If your toilet keeps clogging, you can try using less toilet paper, adjusting the fill valve, checking the toilet vent pipe on the roof, and using a toilet auger to make sure nothing is stuck in the pipe or trap.
Tools include a wrench, plunger, and wax ring. Professionals use specialized tools for complex installations.
Some of the problems with in-wall toilets include the complex installation, which might need extra framing. It is also more difficult to access the toilet tank for maintenance or troubleshooting because it’s behind the flush button panel and in the wall. Over time, you’ll spend more on maintenance because you’ll need a plumber to work on hidden plumbing.
