Toilet Repair & Installation reviews from Locust
Frozen pipe split in the crawlspace during that cold snap. They thawed it, replaced the section, and then insulated the run so it should not happen again. Explained everything as they went.
Lauren K.Locust, NCWhole house repipe. Four days, minimal mess, and they patched every opening they cut. Water pressure is better than it has been since we bought the place.
Nadia F.Locust, NCWe run a small restaurant and the kitchen line backed up during dinner service. They came out after we closed, jetted the whole run, and had us open on time the next morning. Now on a quarterly schedule with them.
Hector M.Locust, NCToilet Repair & Installation in Locust: common questions
Why does my toilet keep running?
Nine times out of ten it is a worn flapper or a fill valve that no longer shuts off cleanly. A running toilet can waste hundreds of gallons a day, so a $185 repair in Locust usually pays for itself quickly.
My toilet overflows when the washing machine drains. Why?
That is a main line problem, not a toilet problem. The toilet is simply the lowest opening in the Locust house, so a blocked main pushes water back up through it.
Should I repair or replace the toilet?
Internal parts are cheap and worth replacing. A cracked tank, a cracked bowl, or a low-flow model from the 1990s that never flushed properly is worth replacing outright.
Why does my toilet rock?
Either the flange sits below finished floor level or the closet bolts have pulled loose. Shimming alone hides it; we fix the flange so the seal stops breaking.
Do you take the old toilet away?
Yes, removal and disposal is included in every Locust toilet replacement we do.
