Toilet Replacement

A toilet that runs constantly, clogs often, or is cracked and leaking is more than an annoyance—it wastes water and can damage your bathroom floor. Homeowners call us when repairs no longer make sense and the fixture is past its useful life. The situation is usually urgent because a leaking or broken toilet can cause water damage quickly.

We start by shutting off the water supply and draining the tank and bowl. The old toilet is unbolted from the flange, lifted off, and set aside for disposal. We inspect the closet flange for cracks or rot, then set a new wax ring or rubber gasket. The new toilet is lowered onto the flange, bolted down, and leveled with shims. We reconnect the supply line, turn the water on, and check for leaks at the base and connections.

The main cost factors are the toilet model you choose—basic two-piece versus taller comfort-height or one-piece designs—and the condition of the existing flange. A corroded or broken flange requires replacement, which adds time. Access matters too: a tight half-bath with limited clearance takes longer than a roomy master bath. The subfloor condition underneath can also affect the job if rot is found.

On the day of the job, we protect the bathroom floor with a drop cloth and bring all tools and the new toilet inside. We remove the old unit and haul it away. After installation, we clean up thoroughly, wipe down the new toilet, and remove any debris. Before we arrive, make sure the area around the toilet is clear. After we leave, you can use the toilet immediately—no waiting.
