Gene's Plumbing handles toilet repair and installation across Kansas City and the surrounding area — licensed, insured and available for emergencies.
Rocking toilets in Kansas City usually mean the flange or the floor underneath has failed, and the wax seal has been leaking slowly for a while.
Every house handles toilet repair and installation a little differently depending on its age, and Kansas City has plenty of both old and new. The fitting, the pipe material and the way the last plumber left it all change what the right repair is.
That is why the Kansas City truck carries parts for more than one era of plumbing. The toilet repair and installation job gets finished on the first visit wherever it can be, because a second trip costs you a day and costs us the trust.
The order we work in, and why.
Tell us what you are seeing, hearing or smelling. If water is actively running into the house, you get walked to your main shutoff before anything else is discussed.
Finding the real cause is what keeps the repair small. Opening one square foot of wall instead of twenty starts with knowing exactly where to open it.
If there is a cheaper option that will actually hold, you hear about it. If the cheap option is a patch that fails in six months, you hear that too.
The repair gets made with proper materials, pressure tested where the job allows, and checked in front of you before anything is closed back up.
The questions homeowners ask about this one.
It depends on what the diagnosis turns up, which is why you get a firm price for your toilet repair and installation job in Kansas City before any work starts rather than an hourly rate that runs while you wait.
Anything actively leaking or backing up is treated as same-day in Kansas City. Scheduled toilet repair and installation work is usually booked within two or three business days.
Drop cloths go down before anything starts, cuts are made as small and as clean as the toilet repair and installation job allows, and everything removed leaves with the truck when the Kansas City work is done.
If the situation is urgent, yes — Kansas City emergency calls are answered day and night, and the first priority is stopping the water before the toilet repair and installation repair is started.
Feedback from customers who had this work done.
"Got a quote elsewhere for a full repipe at five figures. Second opinion here found two bad sections and a pressure regulator. Cost me a fraction of the first number."
"Sump pump died the week before a big storm. New pump and a battery backup installed in one visit. Power went out during the storm and the basement stayed dry."
"Main water line between the meter and the house had been leaking into the yard for months. They trenched it, replaced it, and put the sod back better than it was before."
