professional toilet installation and repair services

Is your toilet constantly running, not flushing properly, leaking, or clogging frequently? These issues can waste water, increase utility bills, and cause hidden damage to your home if left untreated.

 

At Repipe Champions Plumbing and Rooter, we specialize in fast, affordable toilet repair and installation services throughout Santa Clara, San Mateo, Alameda Counties, and the greater Bay Area. Whether you need to fix a minor leak or replace a failing toilet, our licensed plumbers are here to help.

 

 

1. Constantly Running Toilet

 

A running toilet can waste up to 200 gallons of water per day. If the tank never stops filling, it’s likely due to internal component failure.

 

Common causes include:

 

• Faulty flapper valve that doesn’t seal properly

• Float set too high, allowing overflow

• Broken or worn-out fill valve

 

What we do:

 

• Adjust or replace the float mechanism

• Install a new flapper valve or fill valve

• Inspect for internal tank damage or buildup

 

If adjustments don’t solve the problem, professional diagnosis may be needed.

 

 

2. Toilet Won’t Flush or Has a Weak Flush

 

Weak flushing or incomplete flushes often point to internal component wear or restricted water flow.

 

Common causes:

 

• Partial clog in the trap or drain line

• Low water level in the tank

• Damaged or misaligned flapper

 

Our solution:

 

• Clear obstructions with a toilet auger

• Adjust the water fill level

• Replace worn flappers or flush mechanisms

 

If multiple toilets are affected, there may be a system-wide issue requiring inspection.

 

 

3. Toilet Leaking at the Base or Tank

 

Leaks can damage your subfloor and lead to mold if left unresolved.

 

Common signs:

 

• Water pooling at the base of the toilet

• Damp flooring around the toilet area

• Tank sweating or cracked porcelain

 

We address leaks by:

 

• Replacing the wax ring seal beneath the toilet

• Tightening mounting bolts

• Inspecting and replacing cracked components

 

Major leaks should be handled quickly to prevent long-term structural damage.

 

 

4. Toilet Clogs Frequently

 

If you’re plunging your toilet often, the problem may be deeper than a one-time blockage.

 

Possible reasons:

 

• Flushing inappropriate items (wipes, paper towels)

• Inadequate water volume in the bowl

• Obstructions in the main sewer line

 

What we offer:

 

• Toilet augering for localized clogs

• Recommendations on proper toilet use and flushing habits

• Camera inspection of your drain system if clogs persist

 

Recurring clogs may signal a need for repiping or main line repair.

 

 

5. Cracks in the Toilet Tank or Bowl

 

Cracks can lead to leaks or structural failure, even if they seem minor at first.

 

Signs of cracking:

 

• Visible hairline fractures in the tank or base

• Water leaking even when the toilet isn’t in use

• Toilet fails to hold water in the bowl

 

Our recommendation:

 

• Temporary patching only for minor, non-structural cracks

• Full toilet replacement for spreading or base-level cracks

 

Upgrading to a modern, efficient toilet may reduce future maintenance and water usage.

 

 

When to Call a Professional for Toilet Service

 

You should contact a licensed plumber if:

 

• Your toilet won’t stop running or flushing is weak

• There’s water leaking from the base or tank

• You’re experiencing frequent clogs

• There are visible cracks in the porcelain

• Repairs no longer resolve the issue

 

Whether you need a simple repair or a full replacement, we provide reliable solutions to restore your home’s comfort and efficiency.
