Toilet Repair in Neshanic Station, NJ
Neshanic Station is mixed on both counts: 62% of its housing predates 1990, and 75% of households own rather than rent.
Short version
In Neshanic Station the split runs 75% owner-occupied against 25% rented. That makes responsibility a matter of your own address rather than the town's pattern, and it is worth settling before anybody is called out to the property. At 62% pre-1990, the housing gives no strong steer on flush volume, which makes the tank label worth a look.

What is actually wrong with it
Most calls are one of five things, and the useful first step is deciding which. Three of them — running, a weak flush and no flush at all — live inside the tank. The other two, a leak at the base and a rocking fixture, are underneath it and are related to each other.
Ask them to name the fault before they name the price. “The toilet needs replacing” is not a diagnosis; “the flapper seat is pitted and will not hold a new flapper” is, and it happens to be a common one.
