Toilet Repair & Installation
A running or leaking toilet wastes water and money every day it's ignored. We repair running toilets, leaking bases, and cracked bowls, and install new water-efficient models throughout Roanoke, VA — done right the first time so you're not calling us back next month.
Toilets are the most-used fixture in the house, and in Roanoke’s older homes they’re often the oldest. Original units in Old Southwest and Wasena bungalows waste water with every flush, and Valley hard water leaves mineral buildup that fouls fill valves, flappers, and jets until the toilet runs, rocks, or won’t flush cleanly. A running toilet alone can quietly waste hundreds of gallons a week.
We handle the full range — running and phantom-flushing repairs, wax-ring and flange fixes on the rocking toilets common over old cast-iron flanges, and full replacements with efficient modern units that cut water use. On a slab or over a corroded flange, a proper reset matters as much as the toilet itself.
If you’re upgrading, a modern high-efficiency toilet pays for itself over time on a hard-water Roanoke water bill — and we haul the old one away.
A constantly running toilet is almost always a worn flapper or a failing fill valve — and Roanoke’s hard water speeds that wear by leaving mineral buildup that keeps the flapper from sealing and gums up the valve. It’s usually a quick, inexpensive fix, but it’s worth doing promptly: a running toilet can quietly waste hundreds of gallons a week, which adds up fast on a hard-water water bill. We replace the worn parts, check the flush and fill for proper operation, and make sure the whole mechanism seats cleanly so it doesn’t start ghost-flushing again in a month. Call (540) 302-5580 and we’ll sort it fast.
Yes — a rocking toilet or one leaking at the base usually means a failed wax ring or a corroded closet flange, both common over the old cast-iron drains in older Roanoke homes. Left alone, that slow leak rots the subfloor and can spread to the framing, so it’s worth fixing before it becomes a floor-replacement job. We pull the toilet, replace the wax ring, and repair or replace the flange so the toilet seals to the drain and sits solid on the floor — no rocking, no seepage. If the subfloor’s already soft, we’ll show you and talk through the repair before resetting the fixture.
Usually yes. Older toilets in Roanoke’s early-1900s homes can use three to five gallons per flush, while a modern high-efficiency unit uses around 1.28 — a large, ongoing saving on a hard-water bill, especially with several toilets in the house. Beyond water use, newer toilets flush more effectively and have better-sealing, easier-to-service parts that outlast the mineral-fouled valves in an aging unit. The upgrade typically pays for itself over time, and we set the new toilet properly — including a fresh wax ring and flange repair where the old one has corroded — so it seals and doesn’t rock. We haul the old one away, too.
