Flapper Replacement in Franklin, TN

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 Franklin, TN 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 Franklin, TN.

Toilet repair FAQs

Common questions about toilet repair and toilet installation

Questions we hear most often about Flapper Replacement in Franklin, TN.

Talk to a person
Why does my toilet keep running?
Nine times out of ten it is the flapper, the fill valve set too high, or a lift chain that is too short. A food coloring test in the tank tells you if the flapper is leaking.
What size toilet do I need for my bathroom in Franklin, TN?
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.
What is the difference between a 1.28 and a 1.6 gallon toilet?
1.6 gallons per flush is the federal maximum. 1.28 gallons is the high-efficiency standard used by WaterSense and required by law in several states, including California, Texas, Colorado and Georgia.
Is a comfort-height toilet worth it?
For taller adults and anyone with knee or hip trouble, usually yes. The seat sits at 17 to 19 inches instead of about 15. Small children may find it harder to use.
Should I repair or replace my toilet?
Repair when the problem is a valve, flapper, seal or bolt. Consider replacing when the bowl or tank is cracked, parts are discontinued, or an older toilet flushes poorly even with new parts.
