Toilet Installation in Metro Vancouver

A toilet is only as good as the flange it sits on. Most bad installs are not the toilet at all — they are what was underneath and got covered up.

Check the Flange, Then Fit the Toilet

Lifting an old toilet is the only chance you get to see the closet flange and the subfloor around it. In a house that has had a slow base leak — which is very common and often unnoticed — that is where the damage is.

So we lift, inspect, and tell you what is there before we set the new pan down. Correcting a corroded flange or a soft patch of subfloor at that moment is a small job. Discovering it two years later, after it has been sealed under a new toilet, is not.

  • ✓Flange inspected and corrected — cracked, corroded or sunken flanges repaired, not covered.
  • ✓Correct rough-in confirmed — measured before anything is ordered.
  • ✓Proper seal and fixings — set level, bolted correctly, no rocking.
  • ✓Old toilet removed — taken away and disposed of.
  • ✓Tested and checked again — after it has been left to settle.

Toilet Installation Questions

A straightforward swap is typically one to two hours including removal and disposal. It runs longer if the closet flange underneath is damaged or corroded, which is fairly common in older homes and is not something you find out until the old toilet is lifted. We will show you if that is the case rather than covering it up.
It is the fitting that connects the toilet to the drain and anchors it to the floor. The wax seal sits on it. If the flange is cracked, corroded or sitting below the finished floor level after a flooring change, no amount of care with the seal will stop a slow leak. Checking and correcting it is the part of the job that actually determines whether the install lasts.
Yes. Bring the measurements — the critical one is the rough-in, the distance from the finished wall to the centre of the drain, usually 12 inches but not always in older Vancouver homes. Get that wrong and the toilet will not fit. Send us a photo before you buy if you are unsure.
Comfort height sits a couple of inches taller and most adults find it easier; it is now the default in a lot of new builds. Dual flush saves water and is worth having. Neither is complicated to fit. What matters more for day-to-day satisfaction is the flush design of the specific model, so we are happy to point you at ones that perform well.
Yes, removal and disposal are included as standard.
