Toilet repair and installation covers fixing leaks, running valves, weak flushes, and clogs, or removing and setting a new toilet.
A running toilet wastes water around the clock, and a wobbly one is a wax-ring leak quietly rotting your subfloor. We fix the running, the leaking, the weak flush, and the clog that won't quit — or we set a new high-efficiency toilet and haul the old one off. Orlando's hard water gums up fill valves and flush jets; sometimes a new unit is the honest answer, and we'll say so.
Orlando's mineral-heavy water is hard on the parts you can't see. Fill valves crust up, flush-jet holes under the rim clog with scale, and flappers warp until the tank refills itself at 3am. Older homes still run thirsty 3.5-gallon toilets that waste water on every flush. Sometimes the repair is a five-dollar flapper; sometimes the smart move is a modern high-efficiency unit that pays for itself on the water bill. We don't upsell — we tell you which one you're actually looking at.
Constantly running fill valves, weak flushes, phantom refills, base leaks and loose seats are everyday problems we solve fast. We replace worn flappers, fill and flush valves and wax rings, and we re-seat and re-seal the bowl so the fix actually lasts.
From routine clogs to non-flushable items lodged deep in the trap, we clear blockages without cracking the porcelain — and we'll tell you honestly if a recurring clog points to a bigger drain-line problem.
Upgrading to a modern high-efficiency toilet saves water on every flush. We remove the old unit, prep the flange, set the new bowl level and leak-free, and haul the old one away.

Usually a worn flapper that no longer seals, or a fill valve that won't shut off. Both are inexpensive parts, and Orlando's hard water is rough on them — mineral buildup warps flappers and gums up valves faster than you'd think.
Yes. A wobble means the toilet isn't sealed tight to the floor, which lets the wax ring leak and slowly rot the subfloor. It's worth re-seating before a small leak becomes a flooring repair.
Flappers, fill valves, and wax rings are cheap repairs worth doing on a good toilet. A cracked tank or bowl, constant clogs, or an old 3.5-gallon guzzler is better replaced — a modern efficient unit pays itself back on the water bill.
Frequent clogs point to a weak flush, an older low-flow design, a partial blockage down the line, or simply too much paper. If plunging is a weekly ritual, the toilet or the line needs a real look.
Older toilets use 3.5 to 7 gallons per flush versus 1.28 on a modern high-efficiency model. Across every flush in the house, an upgrade often pays for itself — especially in a busy household.
Water at the base after a flush usually means a failed wax ring or loose closet bolts. It needs attention quickly — that water goes straight into the subfloor, and the smell and damage follow.
Usually, yes. A standard swap is a quick job, and we haul the old unit away. If you want a specific model we can source it, or install one you've already bought.
A flapper or fill-valve repair runs about $100–$250, a wax-ring reseat $150–$350, a standard install $200–$550, and a high-efficiency upgrade $350–$800. The quote is free and firm before we start.
That's Orlando's hard water. Scale clogs the small rinse holes under the rim and weakens the flush over time. Cleaning the jets helps; if it's chronic, it's another point in favor of a newer unit.
