Toilet Repair in Warwick, MD
In Warwick, 90% of households own their home, and the housing splits fairly evenly either side of 1990 — 50% of it is older than that.
Short version
Owner-occupiers hold 90% of the occupied homes in Warwick. 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 50% pre-1990, so flush volume is worth checking rather than assuming.

What the age of Warwick’s housing suggests
Warwick straddles the line: 50% 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
The fault list is short. A running tank and a weak flush are both usually parts inside the tank. A leak at the base is the one that damages the building, and a fixture that rocks is the one that causes it.
Ask which part was tested before the fixture was blamed. On a running toilet that means the dye test; on a leak at the base it means whether the flange was looked at. A quote to reset a toilet that does not mention the flange has not established why the last seal failed.
