Flapper Replacement in Mobile, 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 Mobile, 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 Mobile, AL.

Toilet repair FAQs

Common questions about toilet repair and toilet installation

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

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.
Do I need a permit for toilet installation in Mobile, AL?
A like-for-like swap often needs no permit, but rules vary by city. Moving the drain, adding a bathroom or installing a wall-hung carrier usually does. Your plumber can check the local rule.
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.
Why is my toilet flush weak?
Common causes are a low tank water level, a flapper that closes too soon, or mineral scale blocking the rim holes and siphon jet. Each can be checked and fixed in one visit.
Can a wall-hung toilet be repaired without opening the wall?
Usually yes. Most in-wall tanks have an access panel behind the flush plate, so the fill valve and flush valve can be reached from the front.
