"I requested quotes from 4 places on Angie's List. Mike called me less than 60 seconds after I hit submit (only one other placed called me, and that was after Mike had already been to my house and done the work). He quoted me $389 to remove the old toilet and put in a new one, parts and labor included. I knew that toilets were $200-$300 for parts alone, so I was pleasantly surprised by this low number. He and another guy (I can't remember his name, sorry!) showed up the same day to do the work. They were friendly and professional, and were in and out in less than an hour. Fantastic work, done quickly and inexpensively."
"I hired Monkey Wrench for a few jobs in my new townhome. I had them install a pressure release valve, install a new pipe for my dryer, service my furnace, replace two toilets, and fix a leak on my outdoor hose spigot. They explained the work clearly and made sure I understood my options. They were communicative with scheduling and fit in the critical jobs that affected my neighbors' water when some of the work needed to be rescheduled. Quality and honest work, definitely will book them for my future plumbing needs."
"Needed a new toilet installed. Was scheduled by another Plumbing company. They never showed up. They had many excuses as to their rescheduling but pushed the project back again. I called Neighborly Plumbing and Travis was very professional and friendly. He had us by the new toilet and scheduled the plumber Mathew to install it. Mathew came on the scheduled time, installed the toilet in less than an hour and he was on his way. So professional and very nice. Canâ t wait for something else to replace so I can call them again."
"Terry was excelled in customer service. He was honest and friendly and always on time. He explained the problem and came up with the best solution for me at the time. I will always call on Terry for my plumbing needs!"
"I called four people the same day. And he was the very best, forthright and honest. There is a gimmick that the competitors use that they will clean one drain for $30, but they won't give you a price for the entire job. He was terrific!"
"Myself, 2,000 miles distant, helping a disabled former caregiver of my deceased mother, am grateful for the excellence of Mitch, who promptly corrected the incompetent blockage of the toilet inflicted by people dispatched by the "AnyHour" company. That company had left their snake blocking all, claiming removal so difficult as to require $5 k, or $3.5 k at minimum. Mitch, in a snowstorm, solved things for $1,500. It was a great relief, after over 3 weeks, that the disabled woman in rundown house of one toilet, was finally able to flush wastes, not put in garbage can. Myself, faraway and relatively poor, wonder if a lawyer or public agency could get the "Any Hour" company to pay some $'s -- including for disabled woman's money-stressed family who have now upended their lives, moving the woman and her two cats cross country with unclear outcomes."
"I spent Sunday morning trying to locate a plumber who could come out to thaw pipes to the house. Finally got Beehive/Quick Response Plumbing. They had someone here within the hour. Scott worked diligently to thaw the pipes, going out of his way to make sure it was we understood what he was doing. (He was using an electric thawing device). He had to leave to take another job but came back and saw that pipes where cleared. "

"I had a great experience with Upfront Drains Heating and Air Conditioning. They provided a free quote for my project. Since I was having a new toilet installed, I was given the type of toilet that I would need. So, I purchased it, and Randy picked it up from Lowes and promptly came to install it. He was always courteous, professional and friendly. He answered my questions and seemed to be quite knowledgeable. Randy was efficient in removing and then installing the new toilet. He hauled away the old fixture and cleaned up after himself. Before he left, I tested the toilet, and it works much better than the previous one. Everything went quite smoothly. I appreciate his knowledge, skill and professionalism. I am very pleased."
One of the many benefits of a pressure-assist toilet is how long it lasts. You can expect a well-maintained one to last up to 30 years. That's five years longer than a standard gravity-fed toilet, so it can be a worthwhile investment if you’re willing to spend more on your toilet installation.
Replacing a toilet costs between $275 and $480 in most cases, and the average cost sits around $375. This includes removing the old toilet and installing the new toilet. Your price could be significantly higher if you invest in a high-quality brand, need the replacement done on an emergency basis, or replace your toilet as a part of a larger bathroom remodel that demands additional work.
Sealant doesn’t need to be applied to the bolts, but it can be a good way to stop an active leak in the moment. However, don’t rely on it as a cure-all; instead, make sure to fix the problem at the source by changing or tightening the bolts.
If you do use sealant, make sure to spread it thickly and evenly across the bolts and the tank's porcelain.
You can tell if your toilet fill valve is full by removing the lid and taking a look. When you flush the toilet, the float is at the bottom of the tank, the water empties, and the fill valve opens. The float rises to the top as the tank fills again with water. When the float rises to the right level, the fill valve closes; if the valve is too high, your toilet may only partially flush, requiring you to adjust the float.
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.
