I would have the expansion tank above your water checked to see if the pressure is correct. The wrong pressure can pop the junk valves.

But, the toilets occasionally need to be repaired with a new gasket, or a new fill valve. Now, I know that I can turn off the water to the toilets and have more confidence that I will not encounter a leaking valve that would require the water to be shut down for the entire house. To me, the peace of mind was worth the cost.

When I replaced my toilets I also replaced the push/pull valves with the same valves you have.
Now two years later neither valve
will close.
Would have been better off with the old valves.

This is a pretty simple DIY project and not worth paying a plumber hundreds $$$ to do. For those of you who may not feel that you have the necessary skills to do this, I suggest that you google the repair type and then look at the YouTube videos on the topic. There are hundreds of videos that will walk you step by step through virtually any kind of home repair.

i like the Mike Scott company, i've used them a few times, & was impressed with their honesty on repairs, professional conduct and helpful attitudes.
