Dealing with a clogged, leaking, or constantly running toilet? Our East York plumbers provide professional toilet repair and installation for homes and businesses. We handle everything from minor fixes to full toilet replacements. Fast response, clean work, and reliable results every time.
Living in East York often means residing in charming post-war bungalows or historic homes. While these properties have character, their original plumbing systems struggle with modern demands. From a toilet that constantly runs to a wobbly fixture on an uneven vintage floor, we handle it all.
At StreamLine Plumbing Services East York, we are experts in everything related to toilets. Whether you need a quick fix for a stuck button, a flange replacement, or a completely new bathroom layout design, we are the local team you can trust.
If your plunger isn't working, the issue might be tree roots infiltrating your old clay pipes. We provide professional drain repair services to clear the obstruction completely.
A phantom flush or constant hissing sound wastes huge amounts of water. We replace worn-out flappers, fill valves, and handle mechanisms to restore proper operation.
Broken flush buttons, snapped chains, or cracked handles — we carry parts for both modern and vintage toilet models common in East York homes.
In many homes built between the 1940s and 60s, a wobbly toilet isn't just a loose bolt — it's often a rusted cast-iron flange or a rotted subfloor. Unlike general handymen, we know exactly how to handle this.
Remove the corroded flange
We extract the old, corroded flange without damaging your drain pipe or surrounding subfloor.
Install a secure new flange
We fit a new flange that anchors the toilet firmly and seals the connection to prevent future leaks.
Level on uneven historic floors
We level the toilet on East York's characteristically uneven vintage floors to prevent the wax ring from breaking and leaking over time.
Why does this matter in East York?
Cast-iron flanges in post-war homes corrode from the inside out — often invisible until the toilet starts rocking. Catching it early prevents subfloor rot and costly bathroom renovations down the road.
Turnkey Replacement
We remove your old, stained toilet, haul it away, and install a new high-efficiency model. You don't have to lift a finger — we handle everything from shutoff to final test.
Renovations & Rough-ins
Planning a new basement washroom or moving a toilet to a new wall? We design and install the sewage layout, ensuring proper venting and drainage slope compliant with Ontario building codes.
Basement Bathrooms
If you have a toilet below the sewer line, we ensure your ejection system works flawlessly. We design the full pumping setup to meet East York's specific foundation depths.
Water Pressure Diagnosis
Does your toilet take forever to fill? Old supply lines in East York can restrict flow. We diagnose and resolve pressure issues as part of every toilet installation service.

Common questions from East York homeowners about toilet repair, replacement, and installation.
If the issue is a worn flapper, faulty fill valve, or stuck flush mechanism, a repair is usually quick and cost-effective. If the toilet is cracked, consistently leaking at the base, or more than 15–20 years old and causing repeated problems, replacement is the smarter long-term investment. Our technicians assess both options on-site and give you an honest recommendation before any work begins.
A constantly running toilet is almost always caused by a worn flapper that no longer seals properly, a faulty fill valve, or a float set too high. Jiggling the handle temporarily reseats the flapper, but the underlying part needs replacing. Left unaddressed, a running toilet can waste thousands of litres of water per month and significantly raise your water bill.
Yes — a wobbly toilet should be inspected promptly. In East York's older homes, rocking is usually a sign of a corroded cast-iron flange or a compromised wax ring, not just a loose bolt. Every time the toilet moves, it stresses the seal between the base and the drain. Over time this causes slow leaks into the subfloor, leading to rot and costly structural repairs that go well beyond a simple plumbing job.
Absolutely. We install customer-supplied toilets and handle the full process — removing and disposing of the old unit, checking the flange condition, fitting a new wax ring, setting and levelling the new toilet, and testing for leaks before we leave. If your flange needs repair or your floor is uneven, as is common in East York's post-war homes, we address that as part of the installation.
A straightforward toilet replacement typically takes one to two hours from start to finish, including removal, flange inspection, installation, and testing. If the flange needs repair or the subfloor has moisture damage, additional time may be required. We always give you a clear time estimate before starting and keep you informed if anything unexpected comes up during the job.
Yes. Adding a basement bathroom requires a rough-in — cutting the concrete floor, installing a drain, vent stack, and supply lines, and in most cases fitting an ejector pump to handle waste that sits below the main sewer line. We design and install the complete system compliant with Ontario building codes. The scope depends on your basement layout, but we walk you through everything during the initial assessment.
Yes. A leaking or completely blocked toilet is a priority call and we treat it accordingly. Our team serves East York and the surrounding neighbourhoods with same-day availability, and our vans carry the most common parts and replacement components so most jobs are resolved in a single visit without waiting on parts.

Why act now
In East York's older housing stock, a wobbly toilet or a slow leak rarely stays minor. Moisture that reaches the subfloor over weeks causes rot that spreads under tile and into joists — turning what was a one-hour repair into a full bathroom gut. The same applies to a running toilet: left alone, it quietly adds hundreds of dollars to your water bill every year while wearing out internal parts that then need full replacement.
We've seen it many times in post-war bungalows along Danforth and in Leaside — a simple wax ring failure that was ignored until the bathroom floor needed replacing. Booking early keeps the job small, the cost low, and your home protected.

"Toilet was running non-stop for weeks. StreamLine came the same day, replaced the fill valve and flapper, and tested it thoroughly before leaving. Quiet house again and the water bill is already back to normal."

"Our toilet in the Leaside house was rocking slightly — we'd ignored it for months. Turns out the flange was corroded through. They repaired it in one visit and the toilet is completely solid now. Wish we'd called sooner."

"We had a toilet replaced as part of a bathroom renovation in our Old East York bungalow. The tech handled the rough-in adjustment on the uneven floor without any drama. Clean job, no mess left behind, everything sealed properly."

"Toilet clog that a plunger couldn't touch. Booked online, tech arrived next morning and cleared it with a camera inspection first to rule out a deeper line issue. Transparent about what he found and priced fairly."

"Had a new toilet installed in the basement bathroom we were finishing. The ejector pump setup was handled as part of the job — everything done to code. Explained each step clearly and left the space tidy."

"The toilet was taking forever to fill after every flush — low pressure issue traced to a worn supply valve. Replaced quickly and now it fills at normal speed. Simple fix but would have wasted water for months more."
James Whitfield

"Cracked tank on a 20-year-old toilet — we decided to replace rather than repair. StreamLine removed the old unit, installed the new one I'd already bought, and hauled everything away. Done in under two hours."

"Slow leak at the base of the toilet — barely noticeable but we caught it early. The wax ring had failed. StreamLine replaced it same day, checked the flange, and confirmed the subfloor was still dry. Great attention to detail."
