Toilets and Fixtures

If the tank or bowl of your toilet is cracked, you need to replace your toilet. Water from the tank or bowl may leak, causing water damage to the floor surrounding your toilet and increasing your water bills.

Your toilet’s age is another factor to consider when deciding between repair and replacement. Older toilets with metal parts can rust and corrode over time, eventually breaking beyond repair. Most modern toilet parts won’t fit these older toilets, so replacing the toilet is the most cost-effective choice.

Toilets are often the focal point of plumbing fixture repairs. Some of the toilet issues we repair include:

• Leaking toilets
• Toilets that won’t stop running
• Toilets that won’t flush

The supply line may need tightening to stop a toilet from leaking, while a toilet that won’t flush could have an issue with the lever lift arm.

If your toilet does not stop running, it may need the flapper replaced or the whole flush valve assembly replaced. A professional plumber from Gladiator Services will assess your toilet fixture and determine quickly what repair is required.

Whatever your toilet fixture issue, we at Gladiator Services are ready to help you out. Contact us for more information about the problems we can fix.

Though some of the following examples may begin as minor issues, it is essential to contact a professional plumber when they become serious.

• Clogs: A clogged toilet may be minor and resolved with a plunger or even hot water. For more severe clogs, do not flush the toilet and contact a plumber immediately. The cause of the clog could be farther down the piping or even outside the house. A plumber can evaluate the situation, clear the drain with a snake or other tools, and investigate any exterior sewer blockages.
• Slow Flushing: You may think that your toilet’s slow flush results from a partial clog, but more often, consistent slow flushing indicates build-up in the pipes farther down. Our plumbers use a snake and camera to inspect the pipe, determine the problem, and clear it.
• Wobbly Toilet: A loose or wobbly toilet should be dealt with immediately to ensure your safety. If you sit down on your toilet and feel like it’s shifting or moving around, contact the licensed plumbers at Gladiator Services. You may only need a replacement seal around the base, but waiting too long could lead to other issues, including leaks and rusting around the floor bolts.

Your plumbing fixtures are an essential part of your plumbing system.
