How Much Does Toilet Installation Cost?
Estimate toilet purchase and installation cost — with the free calculator and what affects the price.
A new toilet fixes leaks, saves water and updates the bathroom. The price depends on the toilet model, rough-in distance and labor. This guide covers the installed cost and a calculator.
THE SHORT ANSWER
The short answer
Toilet installation runs $224–$533 including labor; the toilet itself costs $100–$3,000. Most homeowners pay around $374 for labor. A standard replacement totals $400–$800 with a mid-range toilet.
Toilet types and prices
Standard two-piece toilets start at $100-$250. One-piece models are easier to clean at $250-$600. Comfort height (17-19 in) suits adults and seniors. Smart and bidet toilets run $500-$3,000. Labor adds $200-$400.

- Smart/bidet: $500–$3,000
- Installation: $200–$400
What affects labor cost
A direct replacement on an existing flange is the cheapest install. Moving the rough-in plumbing or replacing a corroded flange adds $100-$300. Old tile or floor repairs push it higher. Leak testing is included in a pro's price.
Water savings add up
Older toilets use 3.5-7 gallons per flush; modern ones use 1.28 or less. Replacing a pre-1994 toilet can save 10,000+ gallons a year — often enough to pay for the install within a couple of years.
