Affordable Toilet Repair Services in San Diego
We handle every aspect of the job, from minor repairs to complete toilet system replacements. Whether the issue is mechanical, structural, or plumbing-related, we diagnose and resolve it without delay. Our licensed plumbers repair damaged parts, fix leaks, and install new units with exact alignment and full code compliance.

Clogged Toilet Repair
A plunger won’t fix every clog. We clear deep blockages using professional-grade equipment.
For recurring issues, we inspect the toilet flush system to find the real cause.
Leaking Toilet Fixes
The water around the base? That’s either a wax ring failure or a worn toilet bowl toilet tank bolt. We inspect, isolate, and repair leaks promptly to prevent mold. If it’s internal, we replace damaged seals or gaskets on the spot.
Running Toilets & Flush Valve Repair
That constant hiss isn’t just annoying; it’s also distracting. It wastes gallons per day. We repair or replace fill valves, flappers, and flush mechanisms, restoring water efficiency and preventing your bills from increasing.
Toilet Installation & Replacement
Upgrading to a water-saving toilet? Remodeling your bathroom? We remove old units, inspect the flange, and install new toilets with exact measurements, including ADA-compliant and low-flow models.
Toilet Seal, Flange, and Wax Ring Repairs
Most leaks start below the surface. We repair damaged toilet flanges, install new wax rings, and reset toilets with proper anchoring to prevent rocking, wobbling, and seal failure.

Frequently Asked Questions – Toilet Repair
Q1:. How much does toilet repair cost in San Diego?
Pricing varies depending on the issue and will be confirmed after inspection. We give flat-rate quotes with no surprises.
Q2: Do I need to replace my toilet, or can it be repaired?
If the porcelain is cracked or there’s a recurring issue with internal parts, replacement is often a smarter option. But if the base, tank, and seals are intact, repairs are usually enough. We’ll inspect and advise.
Q3: How quickly can you respond to a toilet emergency?
We offer same-day and 7-day-a-week emergency toilet repair across San Diego. In most cases, we can dispatch a plumber within 1 hour.
Q4: Why does my toilet keep running?
Worn flappers, faulty fill valves, or improper float levels are the most common causes of running toilets.
Q5: What causes a weak flush?
Mineral buildup, low water level in the tank, or a clog in the trapway or drain line.
Q6: Why is my toilet leaking at the base?
A damaged wax ring, loose bolts, or a cracked bowl can cause base leaks.
Q7: Can you fix clogged toilets without replacing them?
Yes—most clogs are resolved with professional-grade equipment.

Most repairs take 30–60 minutes, depending on the issue.
Q9: Do you repair older toilets?
Absolutely. We specialize in older San Diego homes and fixtures.
