Faucet Repair
A dripping spout, loose handle, or leak beneath a faucet can have different causes. Identify the fixture and leak location so a provider can assess whether parts replacement or a new faucet makes sense.
View service detailsToilet Repair
A running toilet, weak flush, or leak at the base needs the right repair for the symptom. Tell the provider whether the issue is inside the tank, at a connection, or related to a backup.
View service detailsGarbage Disposal Replacement
A leaking, failed, or unsuitable disposal may need replacement. The job involves more than choosing a unit: sink mounting, drain alignment, dishwasher connections, and the electrical connection all affect the installed scope.
View service detailsShower Valve Replacement
A shower control problem may involve a serviceable cartridge or the concealed valve body. Confirm which part needs replacement before agreeing to wall access, new trim, or a complete valve change.
View service detailsBathtub Faucet Repair
A tub spout that drips, a diverter that will not redirect water, or leaking handles can involve different components. Describe whether water escapes with the controls off or only while filling the tub or using the shower.
View service detailsChoose the request that fits your situation
| What you need | What to tell the receiving service |
|---|---|
| Repair an existing fixture | The symptom, fixture type, and brand or model if known |
| Install a replacement | What is being replaced and whether the new product is already purchased |
| Investigate water beneath a fixture | Where water appears and whether it changes during use |
| Clear a blocked toilet or drain | Which fixtures are backing up and whether water is overflowing |
For an active leak, use a known shutoff only if it is safe to reach and operate. Do not force a stuck valve. Keep away from wet electrical equipment. If a toilet is backing up, stop repeated flushing.
Fixture services to ask about
Toilet repair
Describe whether the toilet runs after flushing, refills unexpectedly, does not flush normally, or has water appearing around it. Mention any rocking, visible damage, or recent work.
Ask the provider to identify the problem and explain the proposed repair. Water at the base or an unusual flush does not identify a particular failed part on its own.
Toilet replacement and installation
Tell the receiving service whether you want a replacement in the same position or are considering a layout change. A new location can involve more work than exchanging the fixture.
Before purchasing, ask about fit, the existing connection location, available space, and installation requirements. If you have already bought a toilet, share the model and confirm that the provider accepts customer-supplied products.
Faucet repair
Explain whether the faucet drips when closed, leaks during use, is difficult to operate, or has changed flow. Say whether the problem affects one fixture or several.
Share the brand or model if known. Ask about assessment, replacement parts, and repair options before assuming the whole faucet needs replacing.
Faucet installation
The new faucet needs to suit the sink or mounting surface and existing plumbing. Share product information and ask whether additional connections or mounting components may be needed.
Confirm removal of the old fixture, installation, testing, and disposal arrangements. Do not assume every faucet fits every sink.
Sink connections and under-sink plumbing
Describe where water is appearing and whether it happens when the sink drains, the faucet runs, or an attached appliance operates. The source needs to be established before work is proposed.
Ask which plumbing connections are included and whether cabinet, countertop, appliance, or finish repairs require another trade.
Shower and tub fixtures
For a dripping outlet, difficult control, or temperature concern, describe what has changed and where it occurs. Mention whether the fixture is accessible or parts are concealed behind tile or a wall.
Ask whether the request concerns a visible fitting, a valve, or plumbing behind the finish. Confirm any access and restoration work separately.
Is the problem in the fixture or the drain?
A toilet that keeps refilling and a toilet that cannot drain are different requests. A dripping faucet and a blocked sink also need different information.
If water is backing up, several fixtures are affected, or you need a drain cleared, read the drain and sewer services information. If the source is concealed or unclear, explore leak detection and pipe repair.
You do not need to diagnose the cause before calling. Describe what happens when you use the fixture.
Before you buy a replacement fixture
Check compatibility with the installer before relying on appearance alone. For a toilet, the connection location and available space matter. For a faucet, the mounting arrangement and connections need to match the installation.
Useful questions include:
- Is this model suitable for the existing location?
- Do you install customer-supplied products?
- Are all required parts included with the product or quoted separately?
- Will existing shutoffs or connections need attention?
- Who handles a damaged, incomplete, or unsuitable product?
- What product and workmanship warranty terms apply?
For water efficiency, you can compare products carrying the EPA WaterSense label. Check the specific product and its performance information rather than assuming a guaranteed saving for your household.

Fixture plumbing questions
Does a running toilet need to be replaced?
Not automatically. Ask for the cause and repair options to be explained. The right next step depends on the actual fault and fixture condition.
Is a blocked toilet covered by this page?
Describe the blockage when you call. Drain clearing belongs with the drain/sewer services, while a fill or flush mechanism problem may be fixture repair.
Can I supply my own toilet or faucet?
Ask the receiving provider before purchasing or booking. Confirm compatibility, missing parts, and who handles product returns or warranty claims.
Can a new fixture go in the same place?
It may, but the installer should confirm fit and connections. Moving a fixture can involve additional plumbing and finish work.
Will the provider bring every replacement part?
Do not assume parts are in stock. Share the model if known and ask how parts availability affects the visit and any follow-up work.
Can you replace only a shower handle or trim?
Ask about compatibility with the existing equipment. A cosmetic change and replacement of a concealed valve can have different scopes.
Does installation include repairing the wall or cabinet?
Only if the provider includes it in the agreed scope. Ask separately about access, patching, tiling, cabinetry, and other finishes.
Can several fixtures be handled in one visit?
List each request when arranging service. The provider must confirm scheduling, parts, and the total scope and price.
Will an efficient fixture reduce my bill by a certain amount?
Savings depend on the product being replaced, usage, and local charges. Compare the product information without assuming a fixed saving.
