Toilet Repair in Hebron, IN
Hebron has a mixed-age housing stock, 55% of it built before 1990, in a town where 85% of households are owner-occupiers.
Short version
Owner-occupiers hold 85% of the occupied homes in Hebron. For most households there the toilet is theirs outright, so the repair can be arranged directly without a landlord, an agent or a lease in the way. Housing there splits either side of 1990 at 55% pre-1990, so flush volume is worth checking rather than assuming.

What the age of Hebron’s housing suggests
Hebron straddles the line: 55% of its housing units were built before 1990, when the Energy Policy Act of 1992 set the 1.6 gallon maximum, and the rest since.
So the housing stock genuinely does not predict the fixture here, and the date inside the tank lid is worth more than any figure on this page.

What is actually wrong with it
Four complaints cover nearly all of it, and they are different faults rather than degrees of one. Running is the flapper or the fill valve. Nothing at all is usually the chain or a blockage. Water on the floor is four possibilities, one of which is not a leak. A weak flush is the water level, the chain, or the specification.
Ask what happens to the floor. A leak at the base has usually been going for a while by the time it is visible, and whether the subfloor and flange are sound is the difference between a seal replacement and a return visit.
