Flapper Replacement in Dothan, AL

The flapper is the rubber seal at the bottom of the tank. It lifts when you flush and drops back onto the flush valve seat to hold water in. Chlorine, chloramine and hard water slowly harden it, and once it warps, water trickles into the bowl all day.

Flappers are not one size. Most toilets use a 2-inch or a 3-inch flush valve, and plenty of newer high-efficiency models use their own seal that a generic store flapper will not fit. A mismatch is the most common reason a DIY fix keeps running.

A-1 Plumbing Services connects Dothan, AL homeowners with plumbers who match the flapper to the valve, leave about half an inch of slack in the chain, and check the seat for scale or pitting that would make a new flapper leak anyway.

Still running after a new flapper? The seat or the overflow tube is the next stop.

Call A-1 Plumbing Services at (866) 303-3394 to have a flapper replaced in Dothan, AL.

Toilet repair FAQs

Common questions about toilet repair and toilet installation

Questions we hear most often about Flapper Replacement in Dothan, AL.

Talk to a person
How much does toilet repair cost in Dothan, AL?
It depends on the part. Swapping a flapper or fill valve is a small job, while pulling the toilet to replace a flange takes longer and costs more. Ask the plumber for the price before any work starts.
Why does my toilet refill by itself every so often?
That is a ghost flush. Water is slowly leaking from the tank into the bowl, usually past a worn flapper or a pitted flush valve seat, until the fill valve kicks on to top it up.
Can a cracked toilet tank be repaired?
Not reliably. Epoxy patches rarely hold under constant water pressure. The tank should be replaced, or the whole toilet if a matching tank is no longer made.
What size toilet do I need for my bathroom in Dothan, AL?
Measure the rough-in from the finished wall to the center of the floor bolts. Most homes are 12 inches, and some older houses are 10 or 14 inches. Buy a toilet that matches.
Can a toilet freeze in an unheated bathroom?
Yes. Water in the tank, bowl trap and supply line can freeze and crack porcelain or split the line. In cabins and unheated rooms, drain the tank and add RV antifreeze to the bowl for winter.
