Toilet Repair in Hooper, UT
Hooper is a new town by the standards of this data — 36% of housing built before 1990 — with 99% of households owning their home.
Short version
In Hooper, 99% 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. With most homes built since 1990, the fixture is probably already a 1.6 gallon one and its age is unlikely to be the fault.

What the age of Hooper’s housing suggests
36% of Hooper’s housing predates 1990 — a small share. Most homes here were built under the 1.6 gallon maximum, so the fault is far more likely to be a part than the fixture.
As everywhere, this dates the house. A toilet can be replaced with an older one, and occasionally is.

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.
