Common toilet problems

What we fix

From a quick internal repair to a full reset, we handle every toilet issue:

  • Clogs a plunger won't clear (augered out safely)
  • Constantly running — flapper, fill valve, or chain
  • Weak or partial flush — clog, flapper, or jets
  • Leaking at the base — wax ring or flange
  • Wobbling or rocking — loose bolts or rotted flange
  • Cracked tank or bowl, or a failed supply line/valve

If several fixtures back up with the toilet, it's likely the main line — see drain cleaning.

Toilet about to overflow?

  1. Lift the tank lid and push the flapper down to stop water entering the bowl.
  2. Turn the shutoff valve behind the toilet clockwise to cut the supply.
  3. Don't keep flushing — it only adds water.
  4. Call (971) 399-8934 — we clear it and check the line.
Repairs & installs

Toilet services we provide

Internals, seals, clogs, and full replacements — fixed right, the first time.

Clog Clearing

Toilet auger clears blockages a plunger can't, without scratching the bowl.

Running Toilet Repair

Flapper, fill valve, flush valve, and chain repairs to stop the waste.

Base Leak / Wax Ring

Pull, re-seal, and reset the toilet with a new wax ring and solid flange.

Supply & Shutoff

Leaking supply lines and worn shutoff valves replaced behind the toilet.

New Toilet Installation

Remove and haul away the old unit; install standard, comfort-height, or HE models.

Upgrade to High-Efficiency

Swap an old water-guzzler for a low-flow model that saves on every flush.

Repair or replace?

Repair nearly always wins for internals — flappers, fill valves, wax rings, and supply lines are quick, inexpensive fixes.

Replace when the tank or bowl is cracked, the toilet clogs constantly, or you want to upgrade an old 3.5-gallon guzzler to an efficient 1.28-gallon model. We give you the honest math and handle either.

A running toilet adds up

Small fix, real savings

A toilet that runs or "phantom flushes" can quietly waste hundreds of gallons a day — and it shows up on your Portland Water Bureau bill. The fix is usually a $10 flapper or a fill valve and a few minutes of work.

Because we're out around the clock, you don't have to live with a running or half-working toilet until you can book a daytime appointment — and the late-night call costs the same flat rate.

One toilet in the house and it's down? That's an emergency we'll treat like one.

Toilet Repair Guide

Bathroom toilet repaired by a Portland plumber Repairedor replaced

The one fixture you can't do without

Most toilet problems are minor — until it's your only toilet and it's overflowing at 11 p.m. That's exactly the kind of call our 24-hour line exists for. We clear it, fix the cause, and you're back in business the same visit.

Fix the cause, not just the symptom

A toilet that clogs again and again, or runs no matter how many flappers you swap, usually has a deeper cause — a partial main-line blockage, a venting issue, or a worn flush valve. We diagnose the real reason instead of selling you the same part twice.

Toilet issues we resolve

Internals, seals, clogs, and fixtures — all in a day's (or night's) work:

  • Clogs cleared with a proper toilet auger
  • Running toilets fixed at the flapper, fill, or flush valve
  • Base leaks resealed with a new wax ring and solid flange
  • Wobbling toilets re-anchored; cracked fixtures replaced
  • High-efficiency upgrades that cut water use

When the toilet isn't the problem

If your toilet backs up along with tubs and sinks, the blockage is in the main line, not the bowl — we'll clear it with drain cleaning and camera it if it recurs. And a constantly overflowing toilet during heavy rain can signal a sewer issue we should scope.

A running toilet is one of the most common silent money-wasters in a Portland home, quietly adding to your water bill. The repair is cheap and fast, and we'll often spot it during any other visit and flag it for you.

Every repair and install is performed by an Oregon-licensed, background-checked plumber and backed by a written guarantee, at the same flat rate whether we clear a clog at noon or reset a toilet at 2 a.m. — no after-hours surcharge.

Toilets, Answered

More toilet questions from Portland homeowners

Why does my toilet clog so often?

Frequent clogs usually trace to one of a few causes: an older or low-flow toilet that doesn't move enough water, flushing things that don't break down (wipes, paper towels, cotton), a partial blockage in the branch or main line, or a venting problem that weakens the flush. If only one toilet clogs, it's usually the fixture or its trap; if several fixtures back up, the issue is the main line. We diagnose which so it stops being a weekly chore.

How much water does a running toilet waste?

A running toilet can waste anywhere from a few hundred to over a thousand gallons a day — easily the single biggest driver of a sudden jump in your Portland Water Bureau bill. The usual culprit is a worn flapper that no longer seals or a fill valve set too high. Both are quick, inexpensive fixes, and stopping the run typically pays for the repair in a billing cycle or two.

Is a wobbly toilet a problem?

Yes — don't ignore it. A toilet that rocks breaks the wax-ring seal underneath, which lets water seep out at the base with every flush and quietly rot the subfloor. The cause is usually loose closet bolts or a deteriorated flange. We re-seal and re-anchor the toilet (and repair the flange if needed) before the hidden leak turns into a soft floor or a ceiling stain below.

What does a "phantom flush" mean?

A phantom flush is when the toilet briefly refills on its own without anyone touching it. It means water is slowly leaking from the tank into the bowl, almost always through a worn or warped flapper that no longer seals. It wastes water continuously and signals the flapper (and sometimes the flush valve seat) needs replacing — a fast, cheap repair we handle on the spot.

How long does a toilet last, and when should I replace it?

The porcelain fixture itself can last decades, while the internal parts wear out and get replaced along the way. Replacement makes sense when the tank or bowl is cracked, the toilet clogs constantly despite repairs, or you want to swap an old 3.5-gallon water-guzzler for an efficient 1.28-gallon model that cuts water use on every flush. We'll give you the honest call and install the new one sealed and tested.

FAQ

Toilet repair questions

Clog, leak, or running toilet? Call any hour and we'll sort it.

How do I stop a toilet that's about to overflow?

Take the tank lid off and push the flapper down to close it, then turn the shutoff valve behind the toilet clockwise to stop the refill. That stops the overflow. Then call us to clear the clog and check the line — a live dispatcher answers 24/7.

Why does my toilet keep running?

Usually a worn flapper not sealing, a fill valve set too high or stuck, or a caught chain. It can waste hundreds of gallons a day. These are quick, inexpensive repairs we handle on the spot.

My toilet is leaking at the base — what's wrong?

Water at the base usually means a failed wax ring or loose closet bolts, sometimes a cracked flange. It needs prompt repair because the leak rots the subfloor. We pull the toilet, replace the wax ring and any damaged flange, and reset it sealed and solid.

Can you fix a clogged toilet you can't plunge?

Yes. When a plunger won't clear it, we use a toilet auger to break up or retrieve the blockage without damaging the bowl. If multiple fixtures back up too, the clog may be in the main line — we'll check and clear that as well.

Should I repair or replace my toilet?

Most issues — flapper, fill valve, wax ring, supply line — are inexpensive repairs worth doing. Replacement makes sense for a cracked tank or bowl, a toilet that clogs constantly, or upgrading an old water-guzzler to a high-efficiency model. We give the honest call.

How much does toilet repair cost in Portland?

Most toilet repairs run $120–$350 — a running-toilet fix or clog at the low end, a wax-ring reset higher. A new toilet installation typically runs $250–$600 plus the fixture. We quote a flat rate before any work, with no after-hours surcharge.

Do you install new toilets?

Yes. We remove and haul away the old toilet and install your new one — standard, comfort-height, or high-efficiency — sealed, leveled, and tested. We can also recommend a good model for your bathroom.

Can you come at night for a toilet emergency?

Yes — an overflowing or unusable only-toilet is an emergency we handle any hour. A live dispatcher answers 24/7 and the flat rate is the same day or night, with no after-hours surcharge.
