Bathroom Fixes Every Homeowner Should Get Done Before They Snowball

Small bathroom issues often start as minor annoyances—but left unchecked, they can turn into expensive water damage, mold problems, or broken fixtures. The good news? Most common bathroom repairs can be done quickly and affordably with flat-rate service packages.

If you live in a GTA home or apartment, here are the top bathroom fixes worth handling before they get worse.

1. Re-Caulk the Tub or Shower

Why it matters: Cracked or missing caulking around tubs and shower edges lets water sneak behind the tiles. That’s a recipe for mold and drywall damage.

Fix it early:

Flat-Rate Fix: “Re-caulk standard tub or shower stall” – $80

A clean, mildew-resistant bead of caulk not only protects your walls—it looks 10x better, too.

2. Replace Dripping Faucets

Why it matters: A slow drip can waste thousands of litres of water a year. It also creates calcium buildup, rust stains, and moisture where you don’t want it.

Fix it early:

Flat-Rate Fix: “Replace bathroom faucet (customer provides part)” – $90

A simple swap saves water, cuts utility bills, and keeps your sink area dry.

3. Fix a Running or Wobbly Toilet

Why it matters: A toilet that constantly runs wastes water and might be covering up a flapper or fill valve issue. A toilet that wobbles could eventually break the flange or damage the floor.

Fix it early:

Flat-Rate Fix: “Replace toilet tank internals” – $70
Flat-Rate Fix: “Stabilize wobbly toilet with new shims and seal” – $85

4. Quiet That Noisy Bathroom Fan

Why it matters: Ventilation prevents mold. If the fan is loud, rattling, or dead, moisture builds up—and so do problems.

Fix it early:

Flat-Rate Fix: “Replace bathroom fan (standard size)” – $100
Flat-Rate Fix: “Clean and quiet noisy fan” – $75

5. Patch and Paint Small Drywall Spots

Why it matters: Bathrooms get dings, holes from towel bars, or water stains. A few early patches keep the space looking fresh and stop moisture from seeping in.

Fix it early:

Flat-Rate Fix: “Patch and paint up to 3 drywall spots” – $80

6. Reattach Loose Towel Bars or Toilet Paper Holders

Why it matters: If the anchor screws are loose, eventually the whole fixture will tear out of the wall—leaving a bigger patch job behind.

Fix it early:

Flat-Rate Fix: “Secure up to 3 wall-mounted fixtures” – $60
