Toilet Repair in Manorville, NY
In Manorville, 87% of households are owner-occupiers and just 40% of the housing was built before 1990 — so a pre-standard fixture is the exception here.
Short version
In Manorville, 87% 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. Most of the housing there postdates 1990, so a 1.6 gallon fixture is the likely one, and age is rarely the explanation.

What the age of Manorville’s housing suggests
Only 40% of housing units in Manorville were built before 1990. In a town like this the interesting question is not how much water the fixture uses but why a relatively new one is misbehaving.
Usually the answer is the flapper or the fill valve, both of which wear on a schedule of their own regardless of how new the house is.

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 which part was tested before the fixture was blamed. On a running toilet that means the dye test; on a leak at the base it means whether the flange was looked at. A quote to reset a toilet that does not mention the flange has not established why the last seal failed.
