Toilet Installation

Most homeowners take their toilets for granted until there’s a problem. Overflows, stubborn clogs, or low water levels have a way of getting people’s attention. When the toilet starts acting up, homeowners tend to call the plumber quickly. It’s worth noting that toilets don’t have infinite longevity, so you’ll eventually need to contact a plumber for toilet installation.

Reliable and Certified Plumbers: Experienced and Dependable

Many older homes in Toronto and the surrounding area still have original copper or lead pipes with antiquated main shut-off valves. Unfortunately, these types of valves can develop leaks, become difficult to turn, or suffer outright catastrophic failure due to corrosion and age. Don’t even think about replacing these valves independently. You need a licensed plumber. Cheap Plumber is a trusted plumber by Toronto homeowners.

If your toilet has reached the end of its lifecycle, delaying its replacement isn’t in your best interests. Toilet replacement costs are reasonable. A malfunctioning unit, meanwhile, can create a ton of issues like sewer backups, floods, and water damage. 

Here are some telltale signs toilet replacement is required:

• Old Toilets – Toilets manufactured pre-1960s aren’t as durable as modern units. Older toilets are more prone to developing cracks and use more water when flushing — which costs you more money. If your toilet was made before the 1960s, replace it. The new toilet cost is more reasonable than the cost to fix a damaged older toilet.
• Cracks and Damages – Even the smallest cracks can compromise the function of a toilet and cause leaks and water damage. If you notice a crack, contact a plumber right away for repairs or replacements.
• Wobbles and Movements – Your toilet should be anchored to the floor and shouldn’t wobble or move at all. If it does move in any way, the problem could be anything from poor installation to a damaged subfloor to a damaged wax ring. Book a service call with a plumber immediately if you notice wobbles or movement.

You can get toilets in different types and configurations — like traditional floor-mounted and wall-hung options. At Cheap Plumber, our licensed plumbers are equally skilled in installing both types. Traditional toilets are installed directly onto the drain flange that is usually 12” or 10” away from the wall. Wall-hung models require, in addition to possible plumbing adjustments, frame installations inside the wall. 

When doing the toilet installation, our plumbers will ensure the flange is properly connected to the subfloor in adherence to plumbing codes. Doing this might require using shims and silicone to ensure the toilet is level and stable.

“How much does a plumber charge to replace a toilet?” That’s an often question. The answer, however, is that toilet installation expenses depend on factors like the type of toilets you buy and the state of the existing plumbing. A toilet bowl can cost between $125 and $6,500 depending on the style and brand. The installation for toilets is usually about the same — save for if the licensed plumber comes across something unexpected during the installation. 

Basic toilet installations can cost approximately $300, but you could pay from $350 to $800 based on the state of the plumbing infrastructure, the plumber you hire, and your Toronto location. One thing’s for certain: It’s best to hire a pro rather than attempt a DUI installation.
