Most Story City toilet calls are an hour's work: flapper, fill valve, supply line, or a new wax ring and flange repair. Where the pan is cracked, the trapway is scaled shut, or the flange has rusted away, replacement makes more sense and we will show you why rather than just say it.
Call (833) 435-9778 and describe what is happening. We will give you an arrival window before you hang up and a flat price before anyone starts work - the same price at 2am as at 2pm.
Flapper, fill valve, flush valve and supply line replacement
Wax ring renewed and flange repaired or replaced
Toilet reset level and shimmed so it stops rocking
Full replacement with haul-away of the old unit
Comfort height and dual flush options priced
Line checked if the toilet is backing up rather than failing
Older sewer lines here are clay or cast iron
Plenty of Story City homes still run their waste out to the street through clay tile with a joint every few feet, and roots find every one of them. Cast iron scales shut from the inside instead. Either way, a main line that backs up twice in a year is telling you something a camera can confirm in twenty minutes.

Woke up to water coming through the kitchen ceiling at about 4am. Somebody answered on the second ring, talked me through shutting the main off, and a truck was here inside the hour. Split pipe in the bathroom wall. Fixed and tested before I left for work.

Fair price, showed up when they said, and did not leave a mess. I do not know how to review a plumber more highly than that.

Reliable is the main thing. Third time we have used them across two houses and it has been the same experience every time.
Nearly always the flapper has gone hard and no longer seals, or the fill valve is set too high and water is spilling into the overflow tube. Both are inexpensive parts and a short visit for a Story City home.
My toilet is overflowing right now - what do I do?
Take the tank lid off and push the flapper down to stop the water, then shut the valve at the wall behind the toilet. Call (833) 435-9778 and we will get someone out; if other fixtures are backing up too, the main line is involved.
Is it cheaper to repair or replace a toilet?
Repair, in most cases - a rebuild costs a fraction of a new unit. Once the porcelain is cracked or the internal trapway has scaled up, replacement is the only lasting answer.
How long does a toilet replacement take?
Around an hour to ninety minutes in a typical Story City home, assuming the flange underneath is sound. A rusted or broken flange adds time and we quote that before proceeding.
How quickly can you get to an emergency in Story City?
Usually within the hour for Story City addresses. When you call (833) 435-9778 we give you a real arrival window before you hang up, and we call again if anything changes it.
