"The first project I hired David for was to re-align my gutters and guards. The 2nd was to install security lights and the 3rd will be a new vanity and sink in the bathroom. He does great work, is efficient, fair priced and very professional. Highly recommended! Kerry in Shillington"

"Great! I called yesterday, and they said they would work me into the schedule today and would call me before coming. H.L. Bowman called today and said the plumber would be here in 20 minutes, and he was. He did a great job and installed the toilet in less than an hour, cleaned up and took our old toilet, the box and all packing materials from the new toilet along with him. He also installed a new designer arm on the toilet instead of the one that came on it. He was very nice and professional. Would definitely use him again."

"Jason did a fantastic job installing a floating vanity with vessel sink and one piece toilet in our powder room. He also hung a mirror and mounted a shelf in the room. It turned out great and we would definitely recommend him to others for their home improvement projects."

Toilets questions, answered by experts

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.

Some older homes have toilets in the basement to combat sewage backups. This type of toilet, also known as a Pittsburgh potty, acted as a safety valve over the incoming sewer line. If a line backed up, it would back up into the toilet because it was the lowest fixture in the home, keeping it out of sight and away from the finished areas of the house.

Basement toilets were also used by workers with messy jobs, like those who worked in coal mines or steel mills. This way, they could clean up and avoid tracking dirt through their home.

The toilet flange anchors to the subfloor, usually with wood screws or cement screws, but most of it should sit above floor level at full height. When a flange is flush with the subfloor or below it, it can lead to the creation of leak paths.

Yes, continuing to flush a clogged toilet is not likely to break up the clog. Instead, it will continue to put pressure on the clog while filling the bowl with more water, which can potentially cause the toilet to overflow—leading to an even bigger mess. Rather than repeatedly flushing, use a toilet plunger or plumber’s snake to dislodge the clog.

Many plumbers include removing and disposing of the old toilet as part of their service package. However, it’s best to ask before signing a contract, as removal isn’t guaranteed. If the plumber doesn’t take the old toilet, you have several options, including donation, recycling, junk removal, and bulk waste services..
