Toilet Repair in Suncook, NH
The housing in Suncook is mostly old — 80% of it predates 1990 — and tenure is genuinely mixed at 75% owner-occupied.
Short version
Tenure in Suncook is close to even, at 75% owner-occupied and 25% rented. Where a home is rented the fixture is usually the landlord's to repair, so the lease decides who arranges the work and who is billed for it. Housing there is 80% pre-1990, which dates the house rather than the fixture.

What is actually wrong with it
Which of these is it? Running continuously, not flushing at all, flushing weakly, leaking at the floor, or moving when you sit on it. Each has a different cause and only one of them is urgent.
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.
