Types of Toilets We Can Install for Expert Toilet Installation: Toronto
Types of Toilets We Can Install for Expert Toilet Installation: Toronto
-
This is the most common type of toilet installation in Toronto and throughout Canada. The tank sits above and behind the bowl, and it’s called close-coupled because the tank and bowl are closely coupled together. One advantage of this type is that the tank is accessible—usually, all you have to do is lift the lid. This makes it easier to perform minor repairs and adjustments, such as untangling the flush chain or checking the water level in the tank.
-
This variety of toilet installation operates in the same basic way as a close-coupled toilet, but it’s visually quite different because the tank is concealed inside the wall, or in some cases, inside a piece of furniture like a cabinet, while the bowl sits on a floor pedestal. It’s a contemporary style that some homeowners prefer because it gives a cleaner, more modern look while also maximizing space in the bathroom.
-
Much like a back-to-wall toilet installation, a wall-hung toilet has its tank concealed inside a wall. The difference is that instead of sitting on a pedestal base, the bowl is hung on the wall, so it hangs out of the wall with nothing but space between the bowl and the floor. It takes the streamlined, contemporary look of a back-to-wall unit a step further.

Frequently Asked Questions About Toilet Installation: Toronto Services
-
When it comes to toilet replacement in Toronto, homeowners aren’t always sure when to make the call to a plumber so they can get started on the job. If you’re trying to get by with a toilet that just doesn’t function as well as it used to, and it's past the point of repairs, it’s probably time for replacement.
A toilet is one of those things that tends to deteriorate slowly over time, making it more difficult to recognize the signs that it needs replacement. If you’re aware of the indications that you need replacement services, you can get the professional plumbing help you need before your household is forced to deal with a more serious problem like flooding under the floor. Here are some of the warning signs to watch for:
- Cracks: If you’ve got a crack in the porcelain of your toilet bowl, pedestal or tank, even a tiny hairline crack, there’s no doubt that you need a new toilet replacement in Toronto. The crack will only worsen and can also allow bacteria to enter, which will fester and lead to an unsanitary situation.
- Frequent Clogs: There are a number of reasons why you might be experiencing a frequently clogged toilet. While drain and toilet repair services might do the trick, those would probably be temporary fixes. But if you’ve got an older low-flush toilet that seems to clog almost every time you flush it, it’s likely past due for replacement.
- Wobbling on Base: Does your toilet wobble or shift on its base when someone sits on it? This is typically an indication that the bolts, which should hold it firmly to the floor, are stripped, broken, or corroded. Sometimes, the problem can be solved with new bolts, but often the entire unit needs to be replaced to address the issue and ensure you have a stable toilet pedestal that won’t cause water leaks.
- High Water Bills: If you have an old toilet that uses a significant amount of water for every flush, and you’ve noticed your water bills are pretty high, that’s probably the culprit right there. Replacing it with a new toilet that is more efficient in water usage can make a noticeable difference in the charges on your utility bill.
- Scratched or Chipped Porcelain: This may not seem like a significant issue, but scratches in the porcelain of your toilet allow bacteria to seep in, making it extremely difficult to clean the toilet thoroughly. One little scratch might not be a big deal, but extensive scratching calls for replacement.
-
Because there are numerous variable factors at play, we can’t provide an accurate cost estimate without knowing more about the specifics of your Toronto toilet installation. If you need a drain relocation or adjustment, for example, it will increase the time and cost that it will take to get it done properly.
Give us a call today to chat with one of our friendly customer service representatives. Once we have more information about what you need done, we’ll be able to provide you with a more accurate estimate of the cost involved. Keep in mind that there is also the cost of the new toilet itself to consider, which can vary significantly depending on the type and features you select. Whether you opt for a modern or basic toilet installation, feel free to consult our team with any questions you may have.
-
The length of time it takes for toilet installation varies according to factors such as whether the drain needs adjusting or whether the plumber discovers an issue when they remove the old toilet that needs to be addressed before continuing. That said, you can generally expect the toilet installation process to take somewhere between two and four hours, including getting the old toilet and wax ring removed before proceeding with the new toilet installation. Toronto homeowners can trust our team to work efficiently, but we take the time to ensure that the installation is finished correctly and will deliver long-lasting results.
-
Once the toilet has been installed, it’s technically ready to use. However, it’s best to give the caulk time to dry and cure just to be safe, so it doesn’t immediately lift and remains firmly in place. We generally recommend allowing it to dry for around three to six hours before sitting on the toilet, if possible.
-
There are quite a few possible flush mechanisms available, regardless of whether you have a close-coupled, back-to-wall or wall-hung toilet, and there are some that may be better suited to your household’s needs than others. The right flush mechanism can potentially save you money on your water bills by reducing the amount of water used with every flush.
Some people worry that a toilet installation that uses less water will not flush properly, but there are other ways to ensure the flush works well, aside from using gallons of water every time you hit the flush lever. That includes pressure-assisted and gravity-assisted flush mechanisms. There are also dual flush mechanisms that have two options—a half-flush for liquids and a full flush for solids. That way, you can avoid using the full amount of water when it’s not necessary.
-
We’ll start by unhooking the old toilet from your water supply line, then removing it from the drain pipe along with the old caulk and wax ring. We’ll then put the new wax ring into place, lower the base of the toilet onto it, bolt it down, and install the tank (if it’s a two-piece toilet installation).
Finally, we’ll hook up the water supply line, caulk around the base where it meets the bathroom floor, and test to make sure everything is working properly with your bathroom toilet installation in Toronto. Homeowners aren’t always sure how to calibrate flush mechanisms, so we’ll take care of that step and then clean up after ourselves before we leave.
-
Yes. As a reputable plumbing service, it's essential to us that your plumbing is in top condition throughout the replacement process. We will inspect the flange, shut-off valve, and supply line to ensure your plumbing system is ready for replacement services and compatible with the new toilet. If repairs or upgrades are needed before the process begins, we can assist with them as well.
-
There are ten steps involved in our toilet replacement process. Find out more about each of these steps below:
- Drain toilet: The first step of the replacement process is to shut off the water supply. We will then flush the toilet, which will empty both the tank and bowl, and use a rag to remove any excess water.
- Disconnect water supply: Next, we'll disconnect the water supply line from the toilet to prevent any leakage.
- Remove the old toilet: To remove the toilet, we will start by uncovering the bolt caps on the base, unscrewing the nuts, and then removing the toilet from the flange. We will quickly wipe up any water spillage that occurs during this process.
- Clean the flange: We will then remove the old wax ring from the flange, thoroughly cleaning the area and inspecting it for any signs of damage. The flange may need to be replaced if damaged.
- Install new wax ring: If a new flange is needed, we will install new flange bolts, aligning them with the toilet base bolt holes. We will then put a new wax ring on the flange and press it into place.
- Install new toilet: It's time to get that new toilet installed! We will lower the new toilet bowl onto the flange, pressing it down with our body weight until it's secure. This will compress the wax ring, creating a seal. We will also ensure that the toilet is level.
- Secure toilet: With nuts and bolts, we will secure the new toilet base to the floor, avoiding overtightening to prevent cracking.
- Install the tank: For two-piece toilets, we will attach the tank to the bowl with gaskets and bolts.
- Reconnect water supply line: To finish, we'll reconnect the water supply line to the tank and turn the water back on, allowing the water tank to fill up. Via flushing, we will test the new toilets, checking for any leaks.
- Seal the base: Using caulk, we will prevent any water from seeping onto the floor by sealing the base.
