FAQs
What types of modern toilet and plumbing fixtures can you replace in Birchwood homes?
We replace a full range of fixtures, including one-piece and two-piece high-efficiency toilets, wall-hung toilets, bidet seats, low-flow faucets, touchless flush valves, supply lines, shut-off valves, and wax or rubber seals. We also handle complete fixture upgrades in bathrooms and powder rooms, ensuring compatibility with your existing plumbing and local Birchwood codes.
How long does a typical toilet replacement or fixture upgrade take?
A straight toilet swap with no drain or flange issues usually takes 2–3 hours from shut-off to cleanup. If we’re replacing multiple fixtures—such as the toilet, vanity faucet, and shower valve—plan on half a day. Complications like flange repairs, corroded shut-off valves, or subfloor damage can extend the job to a full day, but we’ll let you know before we start.
What should I expect to pay for a modern toilet installation in Birchwood?
Costs vary with the brand of toilet and the condition of your existing plumbing. On average, customers spend $275–$450 for labor plus the cost of the toilet itself ($200–$800 for most quality models). Additional items—new supply line, shut-off valve, wax ring, flange repair kit, or haul-away of the old fixture—typically add $25–$120. We provide a firm, written estimate after an on-site evaluation.
Will a high-efficiency toilet really lower my water bill?
Yes. Older toilets use 3.5–7 gallons per flush, while today’s WaterSense-certified models use 1.28 gallons or less. A family of four can save 13,000–15,000 gallons of water per year, which in Birchwood equates to roughly $80–$110 in annual water and sewer savings, paying for itself within a few years.
Do I need a permit or inspection for fixture replacements in Birchwood?
Most like-for-like fixture swaps (e.g., removing a toilet and installing a new toilet in the same location) do not require a City of Birchwood permit. However, if we move drain lines, relocate the toilet, or modify venting, a plumbing permit and inspection are required. We’ll take care of all paperwork when a permit is necessary.
How can I prepare my bathroom before the plumber arrives?
Clear a path from the entry to the bathroom, remove items from around the toilet and sink, and make sure pets are secured. Shut off any alarms on water sensors in the room, and if possible, avoid using the bathroom at least 30 minutes prior so the tank is empty. We bring floor protection and cleanup supplies, but an uncluttered workspace speeds the job and keeps your home cleaner.
