Toilet Repair & Installation in Addison, TX
Toilet running every few minutes. Bowl rocking on the floor. Water pooling at the base after a flush. Weak flush that requires two pulls. We handle every residential toilet call in Addison — from a $145 fill-valve rebuild to a full 1.28 GPF replacement with a new flange — with parts on the truck.
Most Addison Toilet Calls Are One-Visit Fixes
A running toilet is the most common plumbing call in Addison and one of the easiest to fix — a $12 flapper, a $28 fill valve, or a full inside-tank rebuild that takes 45 minutes. Left alone, a slow-running toilet wastes 200+ gallons a day. Most Addison homes we visit have at least one that has been running for months before anyone noticed.
Rocking toilets are the second-most common call, and in Addison they usually mean a failed wax ring, a corroded closet flange, or slab movement from the Blackland Prairie clay under North Texas. We pull the toilet, inspect the flange, replace with a wax-and-rubber horn or a wax-free flange seal, and reset it level. If the flange itself is broken or below floor level from tile jobs, we install a stainless repair ring or a fresh PVC flange in the same visit.
For replacements we install ADA-compliant comfort-height 1.28 GPF toilets — Kohler, TOTO, and American Standard — that meet current Texas code. Town of Addison requires plumbing permits on fixture rough-in changes and inspects final installs. If you have already bought your toilet, we install customer-supplied units with the same one-year labor warranty.
Signs Your Addison Toilet Needs Service
A running toilet wastes 200+ gallons a day. Most rebuilds pay for themselves in 3-4 months at Addison water rates.
Ghost flushing means the flapper is not sealing. Cheapest fix in plumbing — a $12 flapper and 10 minutes. We can also rebuild the whole inside-tank kit for a longer-lasting fix.
Failed wax ring, cracked bowl, or a supply-line leak. Pull the toilet, inspect the flange, and reset. Left alone this rots the subfloor.
Loose or broken closet flange, or an unlevel floor. Slab movement from Addison's expansive clay is a common root cause. Needs a proper reset and shim, not just tightening the bolts.
Partially clogged trap, mineral buildup in the rim jets, or a fill valve set too low. Diagnosable in 5 minutes.
Corroded handle rod or a snapped flapper chain. $8 part, $85 labor — easy fix that people put off for months.
Dry trap, cracked wax seal, or a vent-stack issue. If it started after a wax reset, the seal did not seat. We come back and re-set at no charge.
Rebuild, Reset, or Replace — Priced Before We Start
You get the diagnosis and price in writing before any water gets shut off.
- 1Diagnose the actual issue
Running, leaking, weak flush, and rocking are four different problems with four different fixes. We test each before quoting.
- 2Quote all three paths
For older toilets, we quote the rebuild, the reset, and the replacement side by side so you can pick based on how long you plan to keep the fixture.
- 3Do the work with stocked parts
Fluidmaster, Korky, and Kohler internal kits on the truck. Wax rings, wax-free seals, closet bolts, supply lines, and stainless flange repair rings — we stock everything a Addison toilet call typically needs.
- 4Reset level and torque correctly
Wax rings compress correctly only when the bowl is set level and the bolts torqued in a proper cross-pattern — not over-tightened until the porcelain cracks. We do it right.
- 5Test flush and check the base
Multiple flushes at full tank, a paper towel around the base and behind, a final level check, and clean up. If the bowl is a new install, we haul off the old one.
