Running Toilet Repair

A running toilet can waste hundreds of gallons of water per day, driving up your utility bills and placing unnecessary strain on your plumbing system.

Clogged Toilet & Flushing Problems

Slow-flushing or clogged toilets can disrupt your home and create an unsanitary situation if not addressed promptly.

We identify the root cause of the clog, whether it is excess paper buildup, foreign objects, or drainage issues, and restore strong, reliable flushing performance.

Leaking Toilet & Seal Replacement

Leaks around the base or from the tank can lead to damaged flooring, subfloor deterioration, and even mold growth over time. Our experts inspect the toilet for worn wax rings, faulty tank bolts, cracked seals, or loose connections. We replace seals and gaskets, secure fittings properly, and ensure a watertight connection to prevent future leaks and protect your bathroom from costly water damage.

Toilet Repair & Installation – Questions Chicago Homeowners Ask Most

Q: My toilet runs constantly or randomly refills by itself — is this something I can fix or do I need a plumber?
A: A randomly running or phantom-flushing toilet is almost always one of two things: a worn flapper or a failing fill valve — and both are parts a handy homeowner can replace from a hardware store for under $20. The flapper is the rubber seal at the bottom of the tank that controls water flow into the bowl. When it wears out or warps, water seeps past it slowly, the tank level drops, and the fill valve kicks on to top it up. A simple test: put a few drops of food coloring in the tank and wait 15 minutes without flushing. If color appears in the bowl, your flapper is leaking. The fill valve is the mechanism that refills the tank after a flush — if it's worn or misadjusted, it may run continuously or cycle on and off. These are legitimate DIY repairs for most homeowners. Where a plumber becomes necessary is when the toilet is still running after replacing both parts, which typically indicates a crack in the overflow tube, a warped flush valve seat that the flapper can't seal against, or a fill valve mounting issue — all of which require more involved diagnosis. Call us at 708-801-6530 and we can often troubleshoot over the phone before dispatching a technician.

Q: What's actually involved in replacing a toilet in a Chicago home — is it more complicated than just swapping it out?
A: In a newer home with PVC drain connections and a floor flange in good condition, a standard toilet replacement is straightforward — disconnect the supply line, remove the old toilet, set a new wax ring, bolt the new toilet down, reconnect the supply, and done. In Chicago and Chicagoland homes built before the 1970s, it's frequently more involved. The floor flange — the fitting that connects the toilet to the drain pipe — is often original cast iron, and after 50 or 60 years it's common to find it cracked, corroded, broken at the bolt slots, or sitting below the finished floor level due to tile or flooring being added over the years without raising the flange. A flange in any of those conditions needs to be repaired or replaced before a new toilet can be properly set — otherwise the new toilet will rock, the wax seal won't hold, and you're back to the same problem within months. We inspect the flange condition before every toilet replacement and quote any necessary flange work upfront so there are no surprises on the day of installation.

Q: How do I know if my toilet leak is coming from the tank, the base, or the supply line?
A: The location of the water tells you almost everything. Water pooling at the base of the toilet after flushing — not from condensation — almost always means the wax ring has failed and sewage water is escaping around the flange seal with each flush. This needs to be addressed promptly because the water is going into the subfloor, not just onto the floor surface. Water around the base that's present even between flushes and is clear rather than discolored is more likely condensation on the outside of the porcelain in humid weather, or a slow supply line drip running down the back of the toilet. Water dripping from the tank-to-bowl connection — the two bolts at the bottom of the tank — means the tank bolts or their rubber gaskets have failed, which is a straightforward repair. A crack in the porcelain of the tank or bowl is the situation that typically warrants full replacement rather than repair, since porcelain cracks cannot be reliably sealed long-term. If you're unsure where the water is coming from, dry everything thoroughly with towels, put paper towels around each connection point, flush once, and check which paper towels are wet — that narrows it down quickly.

Q: My toilet flushes but doesn't fully clear the bowl — what causes weak flushing and how is it fixed?
A: Weak or incomplete flushing is one of the most common toilet complaints we hear and it has three typical causes. The first is a partially clogged drain — not a full blockage, but a partial obstruction from accumulated waste, wipes, or debris that reduces the force of each flush without stopping drainage entirely. A toilet auger or professional drain rodding usually resolves this in one visit. The second cause is clogged rim jets — the small holes around the underside of the toilet rim that direct water into the bowl during a flush. Mineral deposits from Chicago's hard water accumulate in these jets over time and restrict flow. You can check this by holding a mirror under the rim and looking for jets that are partially or fully blocked with white or brown deposits. Cleaning them with a small brush and a descaling solution often restores flush performance significantly. The third cause is a toilet that's simply worn out — older low-flow toilets from the 1990s were notorious for weak flush performance, and if yours is 20 or more years old and consistently underperforming, a modern high-efficiency toilet will flush more effectively while using less water per flush than that old model.

Q: When does a toilet need to be replaced rather than repaired?
A: Most toilet mechanical failures — running water, weak flushing, a rocking base, a faulty fill valve or flapper — are repairable and don't require replacement. Replacement makes more sense in a few specific situations. A crack in the porcelain of the tank or bowl is the clearest case for replacement: hairline cracks can become full breaks without warning, and no sealant provides a reliable long-term fix on a pressurized porcelain vessel. A severely deteriorated or irreparable cast iron floor flange sometimes makes replacement the more practical path if the toilet itself is old and the repair cost approaches the cost of installing a new unit. Age and efficiency are also legitimate factors — toilets manufactured before 1994 use 3.5 to 5 gallons per flush compared to 1.28 gallons for a current WaterSense-certified model. For a household of four, that difference adds up to tens of thousands of gallons per year and a meaningful reduction in your water bill. If your toilet is over 25 years old and requiring recurring repairs, replacement is almost always the better long-term investment. We can give you an honest assessment of whether repair or replacement makes more sense for your specific situation before any work begins.
