Expert Toilet Repair & Installation in Redwood City & Bay Area

Professional toilet repair, installation and replacement services throughout Redwood City and the Bay Area. Fix running toilets, severe clogs, leaks and complete new installations. Same-day emergency service available.

Toilet Installation and Replacement Process

Professional toilet installation involves more than simply connecting the toilet to existing plumbing. Pro Roto's process ensures optimal performance, prevents leaks, and complies with local building codes and ADA requirements when applicable.

Professional Installation Steps:

  1. Site Preparation: Remove old toilet; inspect flange and subfloor
  2. Flange Inspection: Verify flange is level, secure, undamaged
  3. Wax Ring Installation: Correct placement for a leak-free seal
  4. Toilet Positioning: Careful alignment with flange bolts
  5. Secure Mounting: Tighten to prevent movement without cracking porcelain
  6. Water Connection: Connect supply line; verify shut-off valve
  7. Testing & Adjustment: Full functional testing and final tweaks

Toilet Repair vs. Replacement Decision Guide

Whether to repair or replace depends on age, condition, efficiency, and cost. We help you choose the long-term best value.

When Repair Makes Sense:

  • Toilet is less than 10 years old
  • Single component failure (flapper, chain, etc.)
  • High-quality toilet worth preserving
  • Repair cost under $200
  • No recurring problems

When Replacement is Better:

  • Toilet is over 15 years old
  • Multiple recurring problems
  • Cracks in porcelain tank or bowl
  • Inefficient usage (over 3.5 gallons per flush)
  • Repair costs approach replacement cost
