Toilet Removal and Haul-Away in Independence, IA

An old toilet can weigh 60 pounds or more and is awkward to carry down stairs. Plenty of curbside pickups will not take one. A-1 Plumbing Services connects Independence, IA homeowners with plumbers who remove the old fixture and take it away.

The plumber shuts off the water, drains and sponges out the tank and bowl, unbolts it from the flange, and plugs the drain opening with a rag or test cap so sewer gas stays out of the house. The old wax gets scraped off so the flange is ready for the next toilet.

This fits remodels where the new toilet goes in later, flooring jobs that need the toilet out of the way, and households replacing several toilets at once.

Some cities crush old porcelain toilets into aggregate. Ask whether yours runs a program.

Toilet repair FAQs

Common questions about toilet repair and toilet installation

Questions we hear most often about Toilet Removal and Haul-Away in Independence, IA.

Talk to a person
Why does my toilet keep running?
Nine times out of ten it is the flapper, the fill valve set too high, or a lift chain that is too short. A food coloring test in the tank tells you if the flapper is leaking.
Is water around the base of my toilet serious?
It can be. If it shows up after flushing, the seal under the toilet has likely failed and water is reaching the subfloor. Get it checked before the floor goes soft.
What size toilet do I need for my bathroom in Independence, IA?
Measure the rough-in from the finished wall to the center of the floor bolts. Most homes are 12 inches, and some older houses are 10 or 14 inches. Buy a toilet that matches.
Why is my toilet flush weak?
Common causes are a low tank water level, a flapper that closes too soon, or mineral scale blocking the rim holes and siphon jet. Each can be checked and fixed in one visit.
Can a toilet freeze in an unheated bathroom?
Yes. Water in the tank, bowl trap and supply line can freeze and crack porcelain or split the line. In cabins and unheated rooms, drain the tank and add RV antifreeze to the bowl for winter.
