In reply to the discussion: Adventures in Toilet Repair [View all]Leith
(7,808 posts)46. Okay! The Plumber Just Left
He was very nice, knowledgeable, professional. He changed out the 3 water shut-off valves and put the innards into the upstairs toilet all in an hour and a half. The total cost of parts and labor was $350. A little steep for me, but we have running water and all toilets working again.
It is done and my mind is at ease.
Thanks to everyone for your interest, encouragement, and advice.
