A urinal that won’t stop flushing or a toilet that barely clears the bowl can shut down a restroom fast. RDP Plumbing LLC provides commercial flush valve repair in Atlanta for Sloan and other major commercial flush valve brands, including manual and sensor-operated flushometers. Our licensed plumbers are available 24/7 to get your restrooms back in service.
Signs You Need Flush Valve Repair
- Continuous flushing: water keeps running through the toilet or urinal after the handle is released or the user walks away.
- Weak or no flush: the bowl doesn’t clear, or nothing happens when you push the handle or wave at the sensor.
- Short flushing: the valve shuts off too soon, leaving waste behind and causing double flushes.
- Leaking valves: water drips from the handle, the vacuum breaker, or the connection to the fixture.
- Sensor problems: touch-free valves that ghost flush, flush randomly, or don’t respond at all.
- Loud or slow refill: hissing, banging, or a long wait before the valve is ready again.
How We Repair Commercial Flushometers
A flushometer, often called a Sloan valve after one of the best-known brands, uses water line pressure instead of a tank to flush a toilet or urinal. Inside is a diaphragm or piston that controls how much water passes through and for how long. Because these valves cycle hundreds of times a day in a busy restroom, the internal parts wear out and debris from the water supply can get caught inside.
Manual Flush Valves
Handle-operated valves are simple and durable, but the handle seal, plunger, and diaphragm all wear over time. A leaking handle or a valve that runs on usually points to one of these parts. We diagnose the specific failure, check the control stop, and restore a clean, full flush.
Sensor (Touch-Free) Flush Valves
Sensor-operated valves add an electronic eye, a solenoid, and a power source, usually batteries or a hardwired transformer. Random flushing, no response, or a blinking light can be caused by weak batteries, a dirty sensor window, a faulty solenoid, or a worn diaphragm. We test each part so you aren’t paying to replace components that still work.
Rebuild or Replace?
Many flush valve problems can be fixed with a diaphragm or rebuild kit, which is often the most cost-effective choice. If the valve body is cracked, badly corroded, or the model is outdated, a full replacement may make more sense. We can also convert manual valves to touch-free sensor valves. Either way, we explain your options and give you upfront pricing before any work begins.
Common Flush Valve Situations We See in Atlanta Businesses
- Office buildings with several restrooms where one running urinal wastes water all weekend.
- Restaurants and retail stores that need a customer restroom back open before the lunch or evening rush.
- Apartment amenity areas and community buildings where sensor valves have aged out.
- Restrooms after water line work, when sediment stirred up in the supply clogs the small bypass hole in the diaphragm.
- Clogged fixtures blamed on the valve when the real problem is in the drain line, which our drain cleaning service can clear.
Keeping Your Restrooms Open
We know an out-of-order sign reflects on your business. We work to restore service quickly, and because we are open 24 hours a day, we can often schedule flush valve repairs before opening or after closing. If you have several aging valves, we can service them in one visit so you aren’t calling for one fixture at a time. We also handle related restroom plumbing, including toilet repair, faucets and fixtures, and leak detection.

Commercial Flush Valve FAQs
Why won’t my commercial urinal or toilet stop flushing?
A flush valve that runs continuously usually has a worn or torn diaphragm, a clogged bypass hole, or debris stuck on the valve seat. On sensor valves, a failed solenoid can also hold the valve open. Close the control stop on the side of the valve to stop the water, then call a licensed plumber to rebuild or replace the valve.
Do you repair Sloan flush valves?
Yes. We repair and replace flushometers from Sloan and other major commercial flush valve brands, for both toilets and urinals. That includes manual handle valves and sensor-operated touch-free valves. We diagnose the specific part that failed, explain whether a rebuild or a full replacement makes more sense, and give you upfront pricing first.
Is it better to rebuild or replace a flush valve?
If the valve body is in good shape, a diaphragm or rebuild kit often restores normal flushing at a lower cost. Replacement is the better choice when the body is cracked or corroded, parts are hard to find, or you want to switch from a manual valve to a touch-free sensor valve. We explain both options before any work starts.
How much does commercial flush valve repair cost?
The cost depends on whether the valve needs a rebuild kit or full replacement, whether it is manual or sensor-operated, how many fixtures need service, and whether the call is after hours. We inspect the valve first and give you clear, upfront pricing before any work begins, with no hidden fees.
Can you fix flush valves outside business hours?
Yes. RDP Plumbing is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, so we can often schedule flush valve repairs before you open, after you close, or on weekends. That keeps restrooms available for your customers, staff, or tenants. For a valve that won’t stop running, call (678) 330-8439 any time.
