    Can anyone recommend a good plumber?? I tried installing a toilet myself today, turns out the bottom gasket is broken! I will need to leave the sewage line open all night. Need a plumber asap for tomorrow! Can anyone help?

    I meant the flange. Not the gasket. The flange is rusted beyond hell and is broken in pieces.

    I've used Dynamic Plumbing in Pasadena.

    The owner is fair and will fix your problem, if not exactly cheap.
