What’s included
- Remove old toilet seat and hardware
- Cut or drill out corroded bolts if needed
- Install standard, soft-close, or bidet-style seats
- Secure mounting bolts so the seat doesn't shift
- Confirm proper alignment and lid clearance
How it works
Remove the old seat
We unscrew the plastic caps, release the mounting nuts, and remove the seat — or cut through corroded hardware that won't budge.
Install the new seat
We drop in the new hinge posts through the mounting holes and tighten the nuts from underneath until the seat is solid.
Check alignment
We open and close both the seat and lid to confirm they swing smoothly and sit centered on the bowl.
Problems we fix
- Corroded plastic or metal bolts that snap off during removal
- Wrong seat shape purchased — round vs. elongated bowl mismatch
- Soft-close hinges that detach from the bowl because they weren't seated properly
- Seat that shifts side to side because mounting nuts were only hand-tightened
Toilet Seat Replacement in Columbia — FAQ
How do I know if I need a round or elongated seat?
Measure from the bolt holes to the front edge of the bowl. Under 16.5 inches is typically round; over 16.5 inches is elongated. Bring your fixture measurement when purchasing, or let us measure first.
What if the bolts are rusted and won't come off?
It happens often in older bathrooms. We carry the right tools to cut through corroded hardware without damaging the bowl.
Can you install a heated or self-cleaning seat?
Yes — these models need a nearby GFCI outlet. If one isn't already within reach, we can note that for a separate electrical visit.
Toilet Seat Replacement across Columbia
Columbia's long, hot, humid summers are hard on homes — HVAC strain, swollen doors, deck and fence wear, and moisture around windows and caulk are all common. Older in-town neighborhoods bring hardwood floors, plaster and original millwork, while the Northeast and the Lake Murray side add newer builds with their own needs. Our pros are comfortable with both.
