Toilets
Toilet repair starts with the flapper and fill valve when the tank refills over and over, moves to the wax ring when the bowl rocks or the floor is damp, and ends in a new toilet if the bowl is cracked.
Toilet, Faucet and Fixture Repair in New Rochelle
A fixture that misbehaves wastes water by the day. We repair or replace toilets, faucets, shower valves and disposals in New Rochelle homes, starting from the part that has failed.
The plumber looks at the fixture first, replaces the worn part if that fixes it and suggests a new fixture only when the old one is beyond repair.
Fixtures we repair
Faucets
Faucet drips trace to wear inside, in the cartridge, washer or seat. The worn piece is changed, and a faucet whose body has corroded through is exchanged whole.
Shower and tub valves
A valve that sticks, drips behind the wall or swings between hot and cold has a worn cartridge or a failed valve body, and the plumber replaces whichever it is.
Garbage disposals
If a disposal hums without spinning, the plumber can try to free the jam; one that leaks under the sink is repaired or exchanged for a new unit.
Where a minor repair ends
The city’s code counts fixing leaks in drains, traps or cocks and repairing broken fixtures as minor repairs. Setting or replacing a fixture is left out of that definition, and so is work that disturbs soil, supply, waste or vent pipe connections.
So a leaking trap beneath a vanity is a minor repair, while swapping a pedestal sink is not.
Water rebates
The city’s sustainability guide points to water efficiency rebates and discounts from Veolia for efficient toilets, showerheads and washers, open to households on Veolia water. If Veolia supplies your water, ask about them before buying a new toilet.
A fixture that keeps leaking may point to a bigger problem, so leak detection and drain cleaning are good next steps. The homepage lists our other work.
