Toilet problems we repair — same day
From a part that wears out to a seal that fails, we handle every common toilet issue.
Running toilet
Won't stop running or refills on its own — usually a worn flapper, fill valve, or float. A quick, cheap fix that stops the water waste.
Leaking at the base
Water pooling at the floor means a failed wax ring or flange. We pull and reset the toilet with a new seal before it rots the subfloor.
Clogged & slow
Stubborn clogs and slow-draining bowls augered clear — and we check whether it's the toilet or the line.
Weak / incomplete flush
Mineral buildup in the rim jets, low tank level, or a flapper closing early — tuned so it flushes fully again.
Loose / rocking toilet
A wobbly toilet means loose bolts or a bad flange — we secure it before the seal breaks and it leaks.
Cracked tank or bowl
A cracked tank or bowl can't be reliably patched — we'll advise replacement and install a new one same day.
Toilet overflowing right now?
Turn the shut-off valve behind the toilet clockwise to stop the water, then call us. An overflowing toilet that won't clear can signal a main-line backup — see emergency plumbing.
Repair or replace your toilet?
Most toilets are worth repairing. We'll recommend replacement only when it makes sense:
- The tank or bowl is cracked
- It's a pre-1994 3.5+ gallon water-guzzler
- It needs repeated repairs
- The repair would cost more than half a new install
A running toilet alone is almost always a simple, cheap fix — not a reason to replace.
Installation & replacement
When it's time for a new toilet, we handle it start to finish:
- Remove & haul away the old toilet.
- New wax ring and flange check/repair.
- Set & bolt the new toilet, connect the supply.
- Caulk the base and test the flush.
Ask about comfort-height (ADA), WaterSense (1.28 gpf), and dual-flush models — Kohler, Toto, American Standard, or your own unit.

A running toilet is money down the drain
A toilet that keeps running can waste hundreds of gallons a day — showing up as a mysteriously high water bill. Swapping a worn flapper or fill valve usually pays for itself fast.
Upgrading to a WaterSense model can save a household around 13,000 gallons a year.

Running or leaking? Call — most fixes are same-day.
Why does my toilet keep running, and is it urgent?
Usually a worn flapper, bad fill valve, or float set too high. It's worth fixing fast — a running toilet can waste hundreds of gallons a day and run up your water bill. It's a quick, inexpensive same-day repair.
Why is my toilet leaking at the base?
Most often a failed wax ring; loose closet bolts, a cracked or low flange, or a cracked base can also cause it. Don't ignore it — it rots subfloor and lets sewer gas in. We reset the toilet with a new seal the same day.
Should I repair or replace my toilet?
Repair a worn part on a good toilet; replace if the tank or bowl is cracked, it's a pre-1994 3.5+ gpf guzzler, it needs repeated repairs, or the repair would cost more than half a new install.
How much does toilet repair or replacement cost in Portland?
The price depends on diagnosis, access, parts and the agreed work. Ask what is included in the assessment and request the repair scope and price before authorizing work. Additional restoration or specialist work should be identified separately.
Do you offer same-day or emergency toilet repair?
Yes — same-day toilet repair across the metro. If a toilet is actively overflowing, shut off the supply valve behind it and call our emergency line right away.
Why won't my toilet flush all the way?
A weak flush usually comes from mineral buildup in the rim jets, a tank water level set too low, or a flapper closing too soon. We clear the jets and tune the tank so it flushes fully again.
How long does a toilet installation take?
The time depends on the fault, access, parts availability and the work agreed after diagnosis. Ask for the expected repair duration and any follow-up before approving the scope.
What's a comfort-height or WaterSense toilet, and is it worth it?
Comfort-height (ADA) toilets sit a couple inches taller for easier sitting and standing. WaterSense models use 1.28 gpf and can save a family around 13,000 gallons a year — a smart upgrade when replacing anyway.
What toilet brands do you install?
All major brands — Kohler, Toto, American Standard and more — or a unit you supply. We'll help you pick the right height, flush type, and rough-in for your bathroom.

How the repair scope is decided
The assessment checks the fill and flush mechanisms, connections and drainage symptoms. Movement at the base or water after flushing may need a different repair from a tank that continuously refills.
Suitable work may involve tank components, supply connections, a reset at the base or drain clearing. A cracked fixture or persistent compatibility problem may justify replacement rather than another part swap.
Ask whether the issue is with the toilet or the waste line before approving a replacement. If the fixture is removed, the flange and surrounding floor condition should be assessed as part of the work.
What to have ready before a visit
Note when water appears, whether the toilet rocks and whether nearby fixtures also drain slowly. A model number or photo can help identify compatible parts without guessing.
