Answers to Common Questions
View All FAQsWhat should I do if my toilet won't flush but is not clogged?
If your toilet won’t flush and the bowl isn’t clogged, check the tank parts or water supply. Most fixes are simple and quick at home.
Quick checks:
- Remove the tank lid and make sure the water fills to the normal level.
- Reattach or tighten the handle chain to the flapper.
- Ensure the flapper isn’t warped and seals properly.
- Open the shutoff valve fully at the wall.
- If the fill valve keeps running or is silent with no refill, it may need replacement.
Gold Star offers same-day plumbing and upfront pricing across Long Island, including Woodside.

There isn’t a single “average” price because pipe leak repair varies by location of the leak, access, pipe material, and any water damage. We start with a $179 Diagnostic Visit, waived with repair, then present clear flat-rate options before work begins. Our licensed plumbers find and fix hidden wall leaks, slab leaks, burst pipes, and water line issues using leak-location tools and camera inspections. Same-day and 24/7 emergency service are available in Garden City and across Long Island.

We handle installs like water heaters, sump pumps, new lines, and bathroom or kitchen fixtures. We’re available 24/7 for emergencies in East Rockaway and across Long Island.
Quick cost factors:
- Number of fixtures or length of piping.
- Equipment type (tank vs. tankless water heater).

Toilet repair pricing at Gold Star Plumbing, Heating, & Cooling is given as a flat-rate quote after a $179 diagnostic (waived with repair), and quotes include parts and labor. Most fixes come from worn internal parts in the tank, so the final cost depends on what we find and whether the issue is isolated to the toilet or tied to the drain or main line. We confirm the exact price on-site using our Gold Star Diagnostic Protocol and then present clear written options. We service many homes around the Oyster Bay area, so we carry common parts to finish most repairs the same day. Members of our Gold Care Club receive 15% off repairs.
You’ll see the biggest price differences based on the repair scope:
- Flapper or chain replacement for constant running
- Fill or flush valve repairs for weak or noisy refills
- Wax ring or loose-bowl resets for leaks at the base
- Cracked tank/bowl or drain-line clogs that may need larger repairs
If water is leaking, close the toilet’s shutoff valve and avoid flushing until a technician inspects it. <br/> Updated: 2026-04-02 <br/> Need help in Oyster Bay, NY? Call (516) 200-4014 or book online. "Great service. Very professional and very clear about their pricing." — Alison E.

Leaking pipe repair costs vary by leak location, severity, and access. We provide flat-rate, upfront pricing after a $179 diagnostic that’s waived with repair. Hidden wall leaks, slab leaks, and burst pipes require different methods, so a technician confirms costs on site. Our licensed plumbers locate the leak, review options, and proceed only with your approval. Same-day emergency service is available in Hicksville and nearby.
