Answers to Common Questions
View All FAQsWhat should I do if my toilet won't flush but is not clogged?
If the toilet won’t flush and the bowl isn’t clogged, the issue is likely in the tank parts or the water supply. Advanced Plumbing & Rooter Service provides same-day toilet repairs in Oakland and across the Tri-Valley.
Quick checks:
- Open the water shutoff valve fully.
- Lift the lid: untangle or shorten the flapper chain.
- Check the flapper seal; replace if warped.
- Raise water level to the tank’s fill line.
- Tighten or replace a loose handle/lever.

Residential plumbing installation costs depend on the job scope and materials. We provide upfront, on-site pricing after inspection. Key factors include the number of fixtures, pipe length and size, access (crawlspace or slab), and any trenchless or hydro jetting prep. We serve Oakland, San Jose, and the Tri-Valley with same-day options. Financing is available for larger projects. Every job includes a one-year service warranty, with an optional lifetime warranty for Platinum Club members. A technician will confirm final costs before work begins. <br/>
