"It took probably two to three hours because they had to go out to get another toilet. It was just one person that did the work. The area was left very clean. Something that I liked was that he fixed one of my toilets and told me it was under warranty. I had no idea that a toilet was under warranty. They replaced what they had to and it didn’t cost me anything for it."

"Atkinson and Sons Plumbing have done several jobs around the home my son inherited. They have installed a new toilet, updated our shower surround, unclogged a large drain pipe, and installed a drain vent. They will be fixing our propane piping from the meter to the furnace. They understand our budget and suggest ways to complete what needs to be done. They go above and beyond every time. Wayne and Drew are good people who do right by their customers."
"I FOUND RH BUILDERS (RUSSELL HOLSENBACK) THROUGH ANGIE'S LIST. THE FINAL COST WAS A BIT MORE THAN THE ESTIMATE BUT THAT'S ONLY BECAUSE WE DID NOT ORIGINALLY INCLUDE SOME JOBS SUCH AS REMOVING THE WALLPAPER, PAINTING THE WALLS, AND INSTALLING A NEW LIGHT FIXTURE. RUSSELL AND HIS CREW LAID DOWN COVERS OVER OUR CARPETING SO THERE WAS NO PROBLEM THERE. ANY RESIDUE FROM TAKING THE OLD TILE UP WAS PROMPTLY VACUUMED UP. RUSSELL DISCOVERED THAT THE TOILET WAS NOT SEATED CORRECTLY IN RELATION TO THE FLOOR AND HE CORRECTED THAT WHICH HE COULD HAVE IGNORED BUT DIDN'T. IN ADDITION TO RE-SEATING OUR TOILET HE ALSO ELIMINATED A TRIP HAZARD AT THE ENTRANCE TO THE BATHROOM BY INSTALLING A NEW MARBLE SILL WHICH IS NOW EVEN WITH THE HALLWAY CARPETING RATHER THAN BEING 2 INCHES HIGHER. ALL IN ALL THE WORK PERFORMED WAS DONE PROFESSIONALLY BY RUSSELL AND HIS CREW. AT SOME POINT WE WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A SIMILAR MAKE OVER OF OUR MAIN BATHROOM AND WE WOULD CERTAINLY ASK RUSSELL TO DO THE JOB."
"On time. On budget. We had an interesting conversation over their contract but the owner worked with me to come to an equitable modification we could both live with. There was a part of the work bracing joist that was cut out for the toilet drainpipe that was not done correctly. Once I reported it, I was told I was correct and that they would have someone back to fix it correctly. All that happened as they said it would. No big job ever goes perfectly. These folks stood by their sales pitch and took care of everything very professionally"

Yes, frozen pipes can prevent a toilet from working correctly. If the pipes are frozen, water cannot flow, which means your toilet tank won't be able to refill after a flush. This will prevent the toilet from flushing again. Depending on which lines are frozen, the ice can also block the drain pipe, preventing water from flushing away.
As a temporary workaround, you can manually add water to the tank for each flush. To clear a frozen drain pipe, you can try filling the toilet bowl or tank with warm water and flushing to help thaw the ice. However, the best long-term solution is to unfreeze the pipes to get your toilet back in working order.
A toilet flange secures your toilet in place to the floor, and connects your toilet to the drain pipe that carries its contents to the sewer. Obvious signs that your flange needs replacement include when it can’t keep up with these two functions. If your toilet rocks back and forth or you see leaks coming from the bottom of your toilet, it’s time for a replacement. Other signs that your toilet flange is broken or faulty may include loose tiles or soft flooring around the toilet, and sewage smells.
Small bathroom renovation costs don’t have to break the bank. A $5,000 budget is realistic, provided you're not adding luxurious fittings or making complex layout changes. Changing the layout is the most costly aspect of renovating a bathroom. So if you keep the layout, do some of the job DIY (within your skillset), and use relatively affordable fixtures and accessories, you should be able to stay within your budget.
If a toilet is not properly vented, you could experience issues like poor drainage, slow flushing, frequent clogs, malfunctioning traps, gurgling noises, and the release of sewer gasses. If left untreated, all of these issues could lead to longer term structural damage or (in the case of sewer gasses) harmful health side effects.
In most cases, it’s better to repair a toilet than to replace it. Fixing issues like low water levels, running water, and flushing problems is less expensive than buying a new unit. Start thinking about replacement if the toilet is cracked, using excessive amounts of water, or is over 15 years old. Newer models are more water-efficient and clog less often than older models.
