Toilet Repair in Oneida, KY
Oneida is an owner-occupied town whose housing straddles 1990: 62% of it predates that year, which is where the flush-volume standard divides old fixtures from new.
Short version
In Oneida, 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. Housing there splits either side of 1990 at 62% pre-1990, so flush volume is worth checking rather than assuming.

What the age of Oneida’s housing suggests
Oneida is a mixed-age town — 62% of its homes were built before 1990. That puts a pre-standard fixture somewhere around even odds before you look at anything.
Looking is easy, and it beats the average: most tanks carry a date on the underside of the lid.

What is actually wrong with it
The fault list is short. A running tank and a weak flush are both usually parts inside the tank. A leak at the base is the one that damages the building, and a fixture that rocks is the one that causes it.
Ask what happens to the floor. A leak at the base has usually been going for a while by the time it is visible, and whether the subfloor and flange are sound is the difference between a seal replacement and a return visit.
