Toilet Repair in Hagerhill, KY
Hagerhill has a mixed-age housing stock, 55% of it built before 1990, in a town where 80% of households are owner-occupiers.
Short version
In Hagerhill, 80% 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. At 55% pre-1990, the housing gives no strong steer on flush volume, which makes the tank label worth a look.

What the age of Hagerhill’s housing suggests
55% of Hagerhill’s 1,273 housing units were built before 1990. EPA puts pre-standard toilets at 3.5 to more than 5.0 gallons a flush against 1.6 for anything built to the standard.
In a town this evenly split the age of the house is a weak guide, and it is the age of the house rather than the toilet in any case.

What is actually wrong with it
Which of these is it? Running continuously, not flushing at all, flushing weakly, leaking at the floor, or moving when you sit on it. Each has a different cause and only one of them is urgent.
If you are quoted for a new fixture, ask what ruled out the parts. Flappers and fill valves are inexpensive and account for most of what goes wrong, so replacing the toilet without testing them has skipped a step.
