Installing a new toilet costs $150–$600, with most homeowners paying around $350 including parts and labor. The toilet itself accounts for $75–$400 of that cost, while labor runs $100–$250 depending on your location and the complexity of the job.
What Affects Toilet Installation Cost?
The biggest variable is the toilet itself. A basic builder-grade toilet costs $75–$150, while mid-range models run $200–$400. High-end smart toilets or wall-hung models can exceed $1,000. Labor is fairly consistent at $100–$250 unless there are complications.
Labor Costs Breakdown
Standard toilet installation (replacing an existing unit) takes 1–2 hours. Plumbers typically charge $100–$200 for this work. If the wax ring needs replacement, flange is damaged, or supply line is in bad shape, costs increase. First-time installation in a new bathroom costs more.
Types of Toilets and Their Installation Costs
Standard two-piece toilets: lowest installation cost. One-piece toilets: slightly heavier, similar cost. Wall-hung toilets: require in-wall carrier frame, adding $500–$800 to installation. Bidet toilets: require electrical outlet nearby. Dual-flush toilets: standard installation cost.
