Your New Toilet Options
Whether you’re installing toilets for new construction or replacing an old toilet, you have several types of toilets to choose from, thanks to plumbing advancements. Modern toilets come with all kinds of features, including:
- Low-flow: To conserve water, low-flow models use significantly less water per flush than regular toilets.
- Dual flush: Eco-friendly dual flush options have two buttons — a half-flush and a full-flush.
- Gravity-fed: The most common type of toilet in America, gravity-fed toilets use gravity to pull waste down and flush it away. While they’re quiet and low-maintenance, the flush is slightly weaker than other types.
- Pressure-assisted: For a powerful flush, pressure-assisted toilets use a pressure tank to force waste down the toilet. Though the flush is incredibly strong, they’re also more likely to clog than certain toilet types.
4 Signs to Replace Your Toilet
A broken toilet brings comfortable living to a halt in seconds. Because knowledge is power, here are four of the most common signs your toilet needs replacing:
- Cracks in the tank: Hairline fractures are difficult to see without a trained eye, but signs you have a crack are water seepage at the base of your toilet.
- Age: Age is one of the most important factors when considering toilet replacement. As it ages, it demands more frequent repairs and works less efficiently. Plus, many older models weren’t built as smart as the newest models, resulting in problems that are totally avoidable today.
- Inadequate bowl size: If you’re uncomfortable sitting on your toilet, it’s time to shop for an elongated style, which is typically two inches longer than round toilet bowls.
- Constant clogging: The cause could be a low-flow toilet, improper plumbing done in the past, or a clog deep in the pipe. Our plumbers can help you pinpoint the problem so your new toilet functions optimally.

Why to Avoid DIY Toilet Installation
If you’re handy around the house, it’s probably tempting to replace your toilet yourself. With thousands of DIY videos available, what could go wrong? Well, we’ll tell you:
- Old pipe problems: It’s easy to see the workings of a toilet, but how familiar are you with the pipes that run from your toilet through the floors to your basement? How old are those pipes, and what condition are they in? When replacing a toilet, unforeseen issues often surface like deteriorating pipes. A professional can quickly detect and fix these issues, but if you’re doing it alone, how likely are you to fix the problem correctly?
- Leaks: The stuff of nightmares, undetected leaks from improperly installed toilets can cause thousands of dollars in damages to your home.
- Sewer backups: If you’re replacing a toilet because it frequently backs up, are you getting to the root of the problem? Most people are not well acquainted with their sewage pipes, nor should they be. This is why professional plumbers exist. Our seasoned experts have decades of experience with sewage pipes and can detect and repair problems before they become an issue when installing your new toilet.
