Is Your Toilet Acting Up?

A toilet that runs constantly, won’t flush properly, or leaks at the base isn’t just annoying—it’s wasting water and money. A running toilet can waste 200 gallons of water per day, adding hundreds to your water bill. A leak at the base can damage your subfloor and create conditions for mold growth.

Valmont Build & Mechanical Group repairs all types of toilet problems throughout Kissimmee, Orlando, and Central Florida. Our licensed plumbers (License #CFC1434208) diagnose the issue accurately and fix it right the first time. Most toilet repairs can be completed in a single visit, often in under an hour.

Not sure if your toilet needs repair or replacement? We’ll give you an honest assessment. If a $150 repair will solve the problem, we’ll tell you. If the toilet is beyond reasonable repair, we’ll explain why replacement makes more sense—and give you options.

What Toilet Problems Can You Fix?

Toilets are relatively simple machines, but they can fail in frustrating ways. Here are the most common toilet problems we repair:

💧 Running Toilet

The most common complaint—and one of the biggest water wasters. Usually caused by a faulty flapper, fill valve, or overflow tube. We diagnose the cause and replace the worn components to stop the running.

🚽 Weak or Incomplete Flush

When the toilet doesn’t clear the bowl completely or requires multiple flushes. Often caused by clogged rim jets, low water level, flapper closing too soon, or partial drain blockage.

🔧 Clogged Toilet

When a plunger won’t clear it, you need professional help. We use toilet augers and, when necessary, remove the toilet to clear stubborn blockages—including toys, wipes, and other items that shouldn’t be flushed.

💦 Leaking at the Base

Water pooling around the toilet base usually indicates a failed wax ring seal. This needs prompt attention—sewage water leaking onto your floor is a health hazard and can damage the subfloor.

👻 Phantom Flushing

When the toilet seems to flush by itself or you hear it refilling randomly. This happens when water slowly leaks from the tank into the bowl—typically a flapper or flush valve problem.

🔩 Rocking or Loose Toilet

A toilet that wobbles when you sit on it needs immediate attention. Loose bolts, broken flange, or deteriorated subfloor are common causes. Rocking breaks the wax seal and leads to leaks.

🛢️ Tank Leaking to Bowl or Floor

Water leaking between the tank and bowl, or from the tank to the floor. Usually caused by worn tank-to-bowl gaskets, loose tank bolts, or a cracked tank. We repair or replace components as needed.

⚠️ Toilet Won’t Flush at All

When nothing happens when you push the handle—or the handle is loose and floppy. Usually a broken lift chain, disconnected flapper, or failed flush handle mechanism. Quick fix once diagnosed.

⏱️ Slow Tank Refill

Tank takes forever to refill after flushing. Often caused by a partially closed supply valve, clogged fill valve, or low water pressure. We identify and fix the restriction.

🔊 Strange Noises

Whistling, humming, gurgling, or banging sounds during or after flushing. Could indicate fill valve issues, venting problems, or water hammer. We diagnose the noise and eliminate it.

What Toilet Components Do You Repair or Replace?

Most toilet problems come down to a handful of components. We repair and replace all internal and external toilet parts:

Tank Components

  • Flappers
  • Fill valves (ballcock)
  • Flush valves
  • Overflow tubes
  • Tank levers/handles
  • Lift chains
  • Float assemblies
  • Tank bolts & gaskets

Bowl & Base Components

  • Wax rings
  • Wax-free seals
  • Closet flanges
  • Closet bolts
  • Tank-to-bowl gaskets

Supply & Connections

  • Supply lines
  • Shutoff valves
  • Fill valve connections
  • Angle stops

We carry common parts on our trucks for immediate repairs. For less common toilets or specialty parts, we may need to source parts and return—we’ll let you know upfront.

How Does Toilet Repair Work?

Here’s what to expect when you call Valmont for toilet repair:

1

Diagnose the Problem

We inspect the toilet inside and out—tank components, bowl, base seal, supply connection, and flange condition. Accurate diagnosis prevents unnecessary part replacements.

2

Explain Your Options

We tell you what’s wrong, what needs to be fixed, and provide upfront pricing. If the toilet is old and multiple parts are failing, we’ll discuss whether repair or replacement makes more sense.

3

Complete the Repair

Once you approve, we complete the repair using quality replacement parts. We carry common parts on our trucks; specialty parts may require a follow-up visit.

4

Test Everything

We flush multiple times, check for leaks at all connections, verify proper fill level, and ensure the toilet operates quietly and efficiently before we leave.

How Much Does Toilet Repair Cost?

Toilet repair costs depend on what’s wrong and the parts needed. Here are typical ranges for the Kissimmee and Orlando area:

Repair Type Typical Cost Notes
Flapper Replacement $75 – $125 Most common fix for running toilets
Fill Valve Replacement $100 – $175 Fixes running, slow fill, noisy refill
Flush Valve Replacement $150 – $250 Complete flush mechanism replacement
Wax Ring Replacement $150 – $250 Requires removing & resetting toilet
Handle/Lever Replacement $75 – $125 Quick fix for loose or broken handles
Clog Removal (Auger) $125 – $200 Stubborn clogs a plunger won’t clear
Tank-to-Bowl Gasket/Bolts $125 – $200 Fixes leaks between tank and bowl
Complete Rebuild (All Internals) $200 – $350 Fill valve, flush valve, flapper, supply
Flange Repair/Replacement $150 – $300 If flange is cracked or too low

Note: These are typical ranges—your actual cost depends on your specific toilet and situation. We provide exact pricing after diagnosis, before any work begins. No surprises.

When Should You Replace Instead of Repair?

We’re not going to push a new toilet if a simple repair will solve your problem. But sometimes replacement genuinely makes more sense:

  • Repair cost approaches replacement cost — If you need multiple parts replaced and the total exceeds 50-60% of a new toilet, replacement usually makes more sense.
  • Cracks in the porcelain — Cracks in the tank or bowl can’t be reliably repaired. They’ll eventually leak or fail completely.
  • Repeated problems — If you’re calling for repairs every few months, the toilet is telling you it’s time.
  • Old, water-wasting model — Toilets made before 1994 use 3.5-7 gallons per flush. A new 1.28 GPF toilet pays for itself in water savings.
  • Parts no longer available — Older or discontinued toilets may have unavailable parts, making repair impossible or very expensive.
  • Constant clogging — Some older low-flow toilets (especially early 1990s models) just don’t flush well. Newer designs work much better.

We’ll give you an honest recommendation. If repair makes sense, we’ll fix it. If replacement is the better long-term value, we’ll explain why and can handle the installation.

Toilet Repair FAQs

How long does toilet repair take?

Most toilet repairs take 30 minutes to an hour. Simple fixes like flapper or handle replacement are on the faster end. Repairs requiring toilet removal (wax ring, flange work) take longer—typically 1-2 hours.

Why does my toilet keep running after I jiggle the handle?

Jiggling the handle temporarily reseats the flapper, but if you have to do it regularly, the flapper is worn or warped and needs replacement. It’s a quick, inexpensive fix that stops the water waste.

Is a running toilet really that expensive?

Yes. A toilet that runs constantly can waste 200+ gallons per day—that’s 6,000 gallons per month. At Central Florida water rates, that’s $50-100+ added to your monthly bill. A $100 repair pays for itself quickly.

My toilet rocks when I sit on it—is that serious?

Yes, this needs attention. A rocking toilet breaks the wax seal, leading to sewage leaks that damage your subfloor. It can also indicate a broken flange. Don’t ignore it—the repair cost only goes up with time.

Can you fix a toilet that constantly clogs?

Sometimes. Frequent clogging may be caused by a partial blockage in the trap or drain line, mineral buildup in the bowl’s rim jets, or an undersized trapway. We can diagnose and often fix the issue. However, some older toilets just have poor flush designs—replacement may be the best solution.

Why does my toilet gurgle when I flush another toilet or run the sink?

Gurgling usually indicates a venting problem—blocked vent pipe, undersized vents, or a partial drain blockage. Air that should escape through the vent is instead being pulled through the toilet’s water seal. This can lead to slow drains and sewer gas odors.
