Drain Cleaning
Slow, gurgling or backed-up drains in kitchens, bathrooms and basements.
A toilet that runs all night, wobbles when you sit or clogs every other week. We repair toilets and install new ones in every bathroom of the house, with a flat price before we start. From our office on 185th Street in Tinley Park.

Most are quick fixes. Some mean a new toilet:
A worn flapper is letting water slip into the bowl. It's a cheap part and a quick fix.
A failed wax ring under the toilet. Fix it before it soaks the subfloor.
Early low-flow toilets from the 1990s are known for weak flushes. A modern toilet often fixes it.
A loose toilet can break the wax seal. It needs to be reset.
Many Tinley Park homes went up after 1990. Toilets went to 1.6 gallons per flush in 1994. Some of those first-generation low-flow models never flushed well.
If your toilet clogs often and it's original to a 1990s home, it may be one of the early low-flow designs. Today's models use less water and flush better.
A basement toilet that backs up while upstairs works fine may be pointing at the ejector pump.
Gurgling in toilets on different floors means a main line problem, often roots from mature trees. See sewer rodding.
A toilet repair should be quick, clean and priced first.
A new flapper or a new toilet. We'll tell you which makes sense.
No surprises.
Shoe covers on, and the old toilet hauled away if we replace it.

"Anthony was our technician to take out our old water heater and install a new one as well as install new inside parts to two of our toilets. He was very professional, courteous, respectful of our home, and very pleasant with whom to deal. We were very happy to have had Anthony as our plumber."
"Stephen and Brendon were great. Explained the options, transparent pricing on parts, had quick support from management on bid questions and great communication from scheduling to job completion. Efficient, cleaned up the area and worked well together even though they came at different times for different portions of the job. Definitely recommend them."
"Edgar Herrera , was amazing, outstanding customer service! Definitely recommend J.Blanton Plumbing!!."
Many early low-flow toilets don't flush well. A modern toilet usually fixes it.
Many of the first 1.6-gallon toilets from the 1990s had weak flushes. If your clogs aren't caused by the drain line, a new toilet uses even less water and flushes much better.
Usually a worn flapper, fill valve or float. A quick repair.
Usually a worn flapper, a fill valve that doesn't shut off or a float set too high. These are quick, inexpensive repairs.
Often a main line blockage or a vent problem, not the toilet itself.
Gurgling when the washer, tub or sink drains means air is being pulled through the toilet, often from a blockage in the main line or a venting problem. See drain cleaning.
It depends on the toilet and any flange or valve work. You get a flat price first.
It depends on the toilet, whether the flange or shutoff valve needs replacing and hauling away the old one. You get a flat-rate price before any work begins.
