Toilet Repair in Winslow, AR
Winslow is an owner-occupied town whose housing straddles 1990: 64% of it predates that year, which is where the flush-volume standard divides old fixtures from new.
Short version
In Winslow, 89% of occupied homes are lived in by their owners. That puts the fixture, the decision and the bill in the same pair of hands, which is why the practical question is what is wrong rather than whose job it is. Housing there splits either side of 1990 at 64% pre-1990, so flush volume is worth checking rather than assuming.

What the age of Winslow’s housing suggests
Roughly 64% of housing here predates 1990 and 23% was built from 2000 onwards, so Winslow has both generations in quantity.
Which one is in your bathroom is not something this data can reach. It dates construction, not fixtures, and the two come apart every time somebody remodels.

What is actually wrong with it
Four complaints cover nearly all of it, and they are different faults rather than degrees of one. Running is the flapper or the fill valve. Nothing at all is usually the chain or a blockage. Water on the floor is four possibilities, one of which is not a leak. A weak flush is the water level, the chain, or the specification.
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.
