Faucet, Toilet and Fixture Repair
Faucet and toilet repair in Houston is one of our most common calls. A running toilet or dripping tap wastes water every day, and a worn shutoff valve can turn a small fix into a flood. We repair or replace them for a flat price.
Signs a faucet or toilet needs work
- A faucet that drips after you turn it off
- A toilet that runs on or refills by itself
- A toilet that wobbles or rocks on the floor
- Water around the base of a toilet
- A shutoff valve under the sink that will not turn
- Low flow from one faucet only
- A showerhead that leaks behind the wall
- Corroded fittings or green crust on a faucet

Good to know in Houston
Houston water is treated with chlorine, which wears rubber flappers and seals faster than many people expect. In older homes, galvanized supply lines and original shutoff valves can corrode shut. A shutoff that will not close is a real risk if a line fails on a Sunday.
Plumbing fixture work for hire must be done by a plumber registered or licensed with TSBPE. Simple fixture swaps usually need no permit.
Questions about faucets, toilets and fixtures
Why does my toilet keep running?
The flapper is usually worn, or the fill valve is stuck. Both are cheap parts and a fast repair.
Should I replace or repair a leaking faucet?
If the faucet is under 8 years old and brand name, a new cartridge often fixes it. Older or cheap faucets are better to replace.
Can you replace a corroded shutoff valve?
Yes. We replace angle stops during most fixture visits, since a stuck valve makes later repairs harder.
Do you supply fixtures?
We can use yours or source one. We tell you the price before ordering.
