A toilet that’s leaking at the base or won’t stop running needs attention before it causes water damage or drives up a water bill. Greener Cleaner’s Burien plumbers respond quickly to diagnose and fix the actual issue.
Greener Cleaner’s Burien technicians are licensed, bonded, and insured (Plumbing Lic. GREENCH741OS, HVAC Lic. GREENCH769NG) for toilet and bidet installation and repair. Every installation includes proper wax ring sealing, secure bolting, and a full leak test before we consider the job complete. We carry wax rings, flanges, and flush valve components for most major toilet brands, which keeps most installation and repair visits to a single trip.
A toilet that’s become noticeably less efficient at clearing waste, or one that requires jiggling the handle to stop running, are both common signs it’s time for at least a repair, if not a full replacement. In Burien homes near the Burien waterfront with a mix of mid-century homes and waterfront properties, we often find that a toilet installed with the original construction has outlived its internal components even if the porcelain itself is fine. Older toilets that have never been serviced are also good candidates for a general check, even without an obvious symptom.
A toilet that rocks, leaks at the base, or won’t stay sealed usually traces back to the wax ring or the flange beneath it, not the toilet itself — which is why simply swapping in a new toilet without addressing the seal underneath often doesn’t solve the problem. For Burien properties near Seahurst Park, our technicians inspect and replace the seal and flange as needed during every installation. If the flange itself needs repair rather than just the wax ring, we’ll explain that distinction and quote it separately.
Stop wasting water and money. Call our Burien plumbers for a fast, honest repair.
Most toilet problems homeowners assume require a full replacement actually come down to a worn seal or valve, which is a much smaller repair. Our Burien technicians diagnose honestly rather than defaulting to the more expensive recommendation. It also means fewer surprise leaks after the fact, since the underlying seal gets addressed properly the first time.
We also serve nearby communities including Maple Valley, Mercer Island, Puyallup, and dispatch is coordinated across all of these areas so a technician already working nearby can often reach you faster than a scheduled appointment would suggest. See our Burien service area page for the full range of HVAC and plumbing services we provide locally.

Most standard toilet installations take one to two hours, including removal of the old unit and testing the new one.
If the porcelain is undamaged and the issue is a running toilet or a failing seal, repair is usually the better value. We'll tell you honestly which situation you're in.
Yes, particularly if you're replacing an older toilet from before low-flow standards. The water savings can be meaningful over time, especially for larger households.
This typically points to a failing wax ring seal, which lets water escape during flushing. It's a straightforward repair if caught before it causes floor damage.
Yes, we install comfort-height (taller) toilets, which many homeowners prefer for accessibility and comfort.
Most electric bidet seats need a nearby grounded outlet. We'll assess your bathroom's electrical access during the estimate and can coordinate an outlet addition if needed.
Not typically — a properly installed toilet with normal use should last many years without major repair. Frequent issues can point to an installation problem or hard water buildup.
In some cases, yes, if the specific part (like a tank lid or seat) is still available. Otherwise we'll recommend the closest compatible replacement.
Yes, removal and disposal of the old unit is included as part of the installation service.
Yes — a slow leak at the base can damage subfloor material over time without being obvious until the damage is significant, which is why we recommend addressing rocking or leaking promptly.
