What moves the price
- Repair or replacement — a new flush valve or fill valve costs less than a whole new toilet
- Toilet type — close-coupled toilets are simplest, while wall-hung toilets need a frame and boxing
- Soil pipe position — a new toilet that does not line up with the soil pipe needs new connections
- Floor condition — rotten boards around an old toilet are repaired first, which adds to the job
- Supply of the toilet — fitting-only prices are lower if you buy the toilet yourself
- Removal and disposal — taking away the old toilet adds a little to the job
Plumbing and heating prices in the UK are up 6% over five years (ONS Consumer Price Inflation, Services for maintenance and repair, to 2026 August). Five years ago a typical toilet repair & installation would have cost about £190 — an estimate from today's guide price and that index, not a recorded price. Source: ONS MM23 D7DO →

- Check the floor around the old toilet for rot before the new one is fitted
