When McLean homeowners need toilet repair & installation, the right plumber is one who knows what's typical under homes here.
Licensed local plumbers serving McLean — fast response, no obligation.
Older cast-iron flanges in pre-1970 homes rust and break, leaving toilets rocking and wax seals leaking into the ceiling below. We repair flanges properly instead of stacking wax rings — the difference between a fix and a callback.
Constantly running, rocking at the base, phantom flushing, or ready for an efficient new unit — toilet work done right the first time, seal to supply line.
Because the storms that flood NoVA basements are the same storms that knock out power. Clay soil sends stormwater straight to your foundation drain, and a finished basement turns a failed pump into a five-figure claim. Battery backup keeps the pit dry through the outage.
A running toilet wastes hundreds of gallons a day — real money on municipal water, and on a well it cycles your pump nonstop and can overload a septic drainfield. It's usually a flapper or fill valve: a fast, cheap fix that pays for itself in weeks.
Yes, more than it feels. Rocking breaks the wax seal, letting water seep at the flange every flush — into the subfloor or the ceiling below. Often the flange or its bolts need repair, not just new wax. Fix it before the floor tells you to.
