Toilet Flange Installation & Repair

The flange is the fitting that anchors your toilet to the drain pipe and the floor — when it cracks, corrodes, or sits at the wrong height, the toilet rocks, leaks at the base, or won't seal no matter how many times it's reset.

New toilet flange installed and bolted into the subfloor

We repair and replace toilet flanges, including cracked plastic flanges, corroded cast-iron flanges common in older NYC buildings, and flanges left at the wrong height after a new floor or tile was installed over the old one.

A flange repair is done right by addressing the subfloor and drain pipe underneath, not just bolting a repair ring over a bad fitting — we check what's actually holding the toilet's connection together before closing it back up.

What Homeowners Say

I had a leak in my living room ceiling and couldn't figure out where it was coming from. Keon and his employee showed up quickly after I reached out. They were professional, patient, and took the time to explain everything to me.

Worked on the complicated pipes in our 125-year-old home. We were satisfied with the work and would hire again.

Keon was able to come the same day. He was very meticulous pinpointing the issue and tried to be as minimally invasive as possible.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

A rocking toilet after tightening almost always means the flange itself is cracked, corroded, or no longer sitting flush — tightening further just stresses the porcelain.

New flooring or tile installed over an existing floor without adjusting the flange height is the most common cause, leaving it recessed too low.

In some cases a repair ring or spacer can correct a flange that's structurally sound but at the wrong height; a cracked or corroded flange needs full replacement.

Flange repair is often needed as its own service when an existing toilet starts rocking or leaking — it doesn't require replacing the toilet itself.

A wax ring leak usually shows up as water at the base soon after installation; a flange problem tends to develop later and comes with rocking or shifting.
