FAQs
What types of plumbing fixtures can you replace in my Birchwood home?
Our licensed plumbers are trained to replace every common residential fixture, including kitchen and bathroom faucets, sinks, toilets, shower valves, tubs, garbage disposals, ice-maker and dishwasher supply lines, hose bibbs, and laundry room utility sinks. We also handle specialty fixtures such as bidet seats, touchless faucets, and smart shower systems. If you have a unique or older model, just let us know and we’ll confirm compatibility before scheduling service.
How do I know if a plumbing fixture needs to be replaced instead of repaired?
Several warning signs indicate replacement is the smarter option: repeated leaks even after repairs, extensive internal corrosion or cracks, mineral buildup that restricts flow, outdated or discontinued parts, and water-wasting designs that raise utility bills. For toilets, constant running or tank sweating can signal efficiency problems, while faucets that drip despite cartridge changes often have worn valve bodies. During our inspection we present repair vs. replacement costs and performance benefits so you can make an informed decision.
Are your plumbers fully licensed and insured to work in Birchwood?
Yes. Every technician holds a State of Wisconsin Journeyman or Master Plumber license and carries full liability and workers’ compensation insurance. We also maintain a current Birchwood municipal contractor registration, ensuring all work complies with local codes and permitting requirements. Copies of our license numbers and insurance certificates are available upon request for your peace of mind.
How long does a typical fixture replacement take, and will my water be shut off?
Most single-fixture swaps—such as a faucet, toilet, or disposal—are completed in 60–90 minutes once we arrive. Larger projects like a tub/shower valve or multiple fixture upgrades can take 2–4 hours. We only shut off the water supply to the affected branch line or the whole house for a brief period, usually 15–30 minutes, while we disconnect and connect the new fixture. We coordinate with you beforehand to minimize disruption.
Can you help me choose water-efficient fixtures that meet Birchwood’s plumbing codes?
Absolutely. We stay current on local code updates and EPA WaterSense, NSF, and ADA standards. We can recommend ultra-low-flow toilets (1.28 gpf or less), high-efficiency bathroom faucets (≤1.5 gpm), and showerheads (≤2.0 gpm) that comply with Birchwood and state regulations while lowering your water and energy bills. If you prefer a specific brand or style, we’ll verify code compliance and handle any required permit paperwork.
What will a plumbing fixture replacement cost, and do you provide upfront estimates?
Costs vary by fixture type, accessibility, and whether we supply the new unit or install one you’ve purchased. For reference, faucet replacements average $225–$350 installed, standard toilet swaps run $325–$475, and garbage disposals start around $275. Before work begins we perform a site assessment, provide a written, itemized quote, and honor that price—no surprise add-ons. We also stand behind our labor with a one-year workmanship warranty and register any manufacturer warranties on your behalf.
