Comfort-Height Toilet Upgrade in Matthews, NC

Standard toilets put the seat about 15 inches off the floor. Comfort-height or chair-height models raise it to roughly 17 to 19 inches, which makes sitting and standing easier for taller adults, people with knee or hip trouble, and anyone recovering from surgery.

A-1 Plumbing Services connects Matthews, NC homeowners with plumbers who swap a standard bowl for a comfort-height one. The rough-in still has to match, and the plumber checks that the taller tank clears any shelf or cabinet above it.

The work is the same as any toilet replacement: pull the old unit, inspect the flange, set a new seal and bolts, level the bowl, connect the supply and test. The old toilet can go out the door on the same visit.

One honest caveat. Young kids and shorter adults sometimes find the taller bowl awkward, so sit on one in a showroom before you commit.

Call A-1 Plumbing Services at (866) 303-3394 for a comfort-height toilet upgrade in Matthews, NC.

Toilet repair FAQs

Common questions about toilet repair and toilet installation

Questions we hear most often about Comfort-Height Toilet Upgrade in Matthews, NC.

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.
Can a cracked toilet tank be repaired?
Not reliably. Epoxy patches rarely hold under constant water pressure. The tank should be replaced, or the whole toilet if a matching tank is no longer made.
What size toilet do I need for my bathroom in Matthews, NC?
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.
Do I need a permit for toilet installation in Matthews, NC?
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.
