If you need a new toilet installed in Houston, here’s what you can expect when you choose Luke’s Plumbing & Air Conditioning for the job:
A continuously running toilet in Houston homes is typically caused by a faulty flapper valve that doesn’t create a proper seal, allowing water to leak from the tank into the bowl. Other common causes include problems with the fill valve, float adjustment issues, or a worn flush valve seal. These seemingly minor issues can waste hundreds of gallons of water monthly. Luke’s Plumbing & Air Conditioning technicians can quickly diagnose the specific cause and perform efficient repairs to stop the water waste and restore proper function.
Consider repair if your toilet is relatively new (less than 10 years old), the issue is isolated to specific components, and the bowl and tank are in good condition without cracks. Replacement is preferable if your toilet frequently clogs despite repairs, has visible cracks, constantly runs despite new components, uses excessive water (older models use 3-7 gallons per flush versus modern 1.28-1.6 gallons), or if you’re experiencing recurrent problems. Luke’s Plumbing & Air Conditioning can assess your specific situation and provide honest recommendations.
Look for water pooling around the base of your toilet, water stains on the ceiling below an upstairs bathroom, a toilet that rocks or feels unstable, unusual increases in your water bill, or the sound of running water when the toilet isn’t being used. In Houston’s humid climate, even small toilet leaks can quickly lead to mold growth and floor damage. If you notice any of these signs, contact Luke’s Plumbing & Air Conditioning for prompt inspection and repair.
While toilets can technically last decades, most Houston homeowners benefit from replacement after 10-15 years. Signs it’s time for a new toilet include frequent clogging, recurring repairs, visible cracks, constant running issues, excessive water usage, or outdated styles and features. Modern toilets offer significant water efficiency improvements, better flushing performance, and enhanced comfort features. Luke’s Plumbing & Air Conditioning can help you select a new toilet that matches your bathroom’s style while improving functionality.
For Houston homes, we typically recommend water-efficient toilets with pressure-assisted or gravity-fed flushing systems. Dual-flush models that offer different water volumes for liquid and solid waste are excellent for conservation. One-piece toilets generally have fewer leak points and are easier to clean in our humid climate. Comfort-height toilets (about 17-19 inches from floor to seat) provide easier accessibility. Luke’s Plumbing & Air Conditioning can help you navigate options based on your specific bathroom layout, household needs, and budget.
For an overflowing toilet in Houston, first locate and close the water shut-off valve near the toilet’s base. Next, remove the tank lid and lift the float to stop water flow if the shut-off doesn’t work immediately. Use a plunger designed specifically for toilets once the water level stabilizes. If plunging doesn’t resolve the issue, call Luke’s Plumbing & Air Conditioning for professional assistance—we have specialized equipment to clear stubborn clogs and can determine if there’s a more serious underlying issue in your plumbing system.
Don’t let toilet troubles ruin your day. Whether it’s a stubborn clog, constant running, or time for a new unit, our Houston experts will resolve your bathroom plumbing issues quickly and correctly. Call Luke’s Plumbing & Air Conditioning now for toilet services that restore both function and peace of mind.
