A toilet that runs constantly wastes 26โ200 gallons per day โ that's $15โ$100 extra monthly for a problem that typically costs under $200 to fix. A rocking toilet that's dismissed as a loose bolt without checking the wax ring risks sewer gas seeping into the floor cavity with every flush. Masters Plumbing Service's toilet techs in East Chicago carry fill valves, flappers, wax rings, flush valves, and toilet bolt sets to resolve every common toilet problem in a single visit.

A rocking toilet tightened at the floor bolts without checking the wax ring will continue leaking sewer gas into the floor cavity. The right diagnosis matters.
We dye-test, fill-rate-check, and measure tank refill time to identify exactly which component is causing your toilet's symptoms. A running toilet can be caused by a worn flapper, a misadjusted float, a failing fill valve, or a cracked flush valve seat โ each with a different repair. We find the right one.
For toilets where the flush valve seat is chipped or the porcelain tank has cracked, we also carry compact replacement toilet units in standard rough-in dimensions.
A common mistake is resetting a toilet over a partial old wax ring or onto a damaged flange. We clean and inspect the flange, note any damage, and install the correct ring profile before reset. The toilet should not rock at all when we leave.
We quote toilet work at a flat rate before any repair begins. Whether it's a 20-minute fill valve swap or a 90-minute toilet reset with flange repair, you know the price before we start. Our rates for common toilet repairs are transparent โ ask for them when you call.
Our trucks are stocked for the most common toilet repairs โ most calls complete in a single visit.
A running toilet is almost always a flapper that no longer seats fully or a fill valve that won't shut off at the target water level. We dye-test to confirm the flapper seal, check fill valve shutoff behavior, and replace whichever component โ or both โ is responsible.

A toilet that rocks on the floor, shows water staining at the base after flushing, or emits sewer gas odor near the floor needs to come up for a wax ring inspection. We pull the toilet, remove the old ring completely, inspect the closet flange for cracks or corrosion, install the correct wax ring profile for the finished floor height, and reset and secure the toilet.
If the auger retrieves material and the toilet still doesn't clear, the blockage may be further in the drain line. We can extend with a sectional cable machine or CCTV camera to determine if a foreign object is lodged deeper.
For dual-flush toilets and pressure-assist units, internal mechanism repair requires model-specific parts โ we carry kits for major brands.

This repair is commonly misidentified as a wax ring issue when water appears at floor level โ water from a tank bolt leak runs down the outside of the bowl and accumulates at the base, looking identical to a wax ring leak until you trace the water path.
When a toilet is cracked, has a non-rebuildable flush mechanism, or the overall condition warrants replacement, we supply and install a new unit in the correct rough-in dimension. Standard 12-inch rough-in toilets are stocked on our trucks; 10-inch and 14-inch rough-in units can be sourced same-day or next-day.
Here's what a Masters Plumbing Service toilet call looks like in East Chicago, IN from your first call to a quiet, leak-free bathroom.
Running after every flush? Wobbles when you sit? Won't clear on the first flush? Water on the floor after flushing? Each symptom points to a short list of components. Our dispatcher notes your symptom so the tech arrives with relevant parts loaded.
Dye test for flapper seal, time the fill cycle, check fill valve shutoff height, observe the flush cycle, check for base movement, and examine supply line and tank hardware. A running toilet is diagnosed in under 5 minutes this way โ no guessing, no replacing parts randomly.
If diagnosis reveals a more involved repair than expected (damaged flange, cracked tank), we explain it before proceeding and re-quote accordingly.
We test until we're confident it's right. You don't find out the repair didn't hold after we're gone.

Three toilet repairs in one visit across two bathrooms. Tech moved through each efficiently โ new fill valve in the master, flapper replacement in the hall bath, and a wax ring reset in the kids' bathroom that had been slightly loose for over a year. All flat-rate, finished in two hours.
My kids flushed something I have no interest in describing, and the toilet wasn't clearing. The tech used a closet auger and retrieved the obstruction without damaging the porcelain. Fast, professional, zero judgment. Exactly what I needed.
Water pooling at the toilet base had me convinced it was the wax ring. Tech traced the water to a corroded tank bolt โ water was running down the outside of the bowl and pooling at the base without any leak at the floor seal. A 25-minute repair, not the toilet reset I was dreading.
Our techs carry parts for the most common toilet brands and models found in East Chicago, IN residential homes.
