A toilet that runs constantly wastes 26β200 gallons per day β that's $15β$100 extra monthly for a problem that typically costs under $200 to fix. A rocking toilet that's dismissed as a loose bolt without checking the wax ring risks sewer gas seeping into the floor cavity with every flush. Masters Plumbing Service's toilet techs in Clive carry fill valves, flappers, wax rings, flush valves, and toilet bolt sets to resolve every common toilet problem in a single visit.

A rocking toilet tightened at the floor bolts without checking the wax ring will continue leaking sewer gas into the floor cavity. The right diagnosis matters.
Phantom flushing (spontaneous refill between uses) almost always indicates a flapper that no longer seals. But sometimes it's a hairline crack in the overflow tube keeping the water level from holding. We check both.
For toilets where the flush valve seat is chipped or the porcelain tank has cracked, we also carry compact replacement toilet units in standard rough-in dimensions.
Pulling and resetting a toilet requires shutting the water, draining both tank and bowl, disconnecting the supply line, unbolting from the flange, removing the old wax ring fully, inspecting the flange for damage, and seating a new ring with the correct compression profile before resetting and re-bolting.
We don't upsell a toilet replacement when the existing toilet is functional and the problem is a repairable component. Honest diagnosis produces honest recommendations.
Our trucks are stocked for the most common toilet repairs β most calls complete in a single visit.
Old-style ballcock fill valves with a float ball and brass arm are still common in older Clive homes. We replace these with modern Fluidmaster-style anti-siphon fill valves that provide more reliable shutoff, quieter fill, and a 5-year warranty against failure.

If the flange is damaged β cracked porcelain collar, corroded cast iron, or a flange sitting below finished floor height β we repair or shim the flange before wax ring installation. A wax ring on a damaged flange won't hold long-term.
If the auger retrieves material and the toilet still doesn't clear, the blockage may be further in the drain line. We can extend with a sectional cable machine or CCTV camera to determine if a foreign object is lodged deeper.
For dual-flush toilets and pressure-assist units, internal mechanism repair requires model-specific parts β we carry kits for major brands.

The bolts and rubber gasket connecting the tank to the bowl can deteriorate over years of service, leading to slow leaks at the tank base or a tank that shifts side to side. We drain and remove the tank, replace the spud washer and install new brass bolts with neoprene washers, and reseat the tank with correct torque.
We handle the full process: shut water, pull old toilet including wax ring and flange inspection, set the new unit, connect supply, and verify flush performance and seal before leaving.
Here's what a Masters Plumbing Service toilet call looks like in Clive, IA from your first call to a quiet, leak-free bathroom.
We ask whether you have a standard gravity-feed toilet or a pressure-assist model, which affects which parts we bring.
For a rocking toilet, we assess floor movement, flange bolt tightness, and wax ring seal before recommending the appropriate repair.
Based on diagnosis, you receive a flat-rate quote before the tech picks up a wrench. Common repairs are priced β fill valve replacement, flapper replacement, wax ring reset, clog clearing β and you see exactly what you're agreeing to.
We test until we're confident it's right. You don't find out the repair didn't hold after we're gone.

Master bath toilet had been running intermittently for months. Masters Plumbing Service's tech diagnosed a deteriorated flapper seat and an aging fill valve that wasn't shutting off reliably. Replaced both in 35 minutes. Completely silent now. The tech also found my water pressure was running at 95 PSI β well above the 80 PSI recommended β and adjusted the pressure regulator, which had been stressing the fill valve. That kind of thorough thinking is why I called a plumber rather than replacing parts myself.
My kids flushed something I have no interest in describing, and the toilet wasn't clearing. The tech used a closet auger and retrieved the obstruction without damaging the porcelain. Fast, professional, zero judgment. Exactly what I needed.
Water pooling at the toilet base had me convinced it was the wax ring. Tech traced the water to a corroded tank bolt β water was running down the outside of the bowl and pooling at the base without any leak at the floor seal. A 25-minute repair, not the toilet reset I was dreading.
Our techs carry parts for the most common toilet brands and models found in Clive, IA residential homes.
