FAQs
What kinds of plumbing fixtures can Modern Designs Plumbing replace in Calhoun homes and businesses?
Our licensed plumbers can remove and install virtually any fixture connected to your potable-water or drain system. Common replacements include kitchen and bathroom faucets, sinks, toilets, shower valves and heads, bathtubs, utility and bar sinks, garbage disposals, outdoor hose bibs, and decorative or specialty fixtures such as pot-fillers and touchless faucets. We also upgrade supply lines, shut-off valves, and trim kits to ensure the new fixture performs reliably.
How can I tell if it’s better to replace a fixture instead of repairing it?
A fixture should be considered for replacement when it shows persistent leaks after multiple repairs, has visible corrosion or mineral buildup, no longer matches current water-efficiency standards, suffers from chronic low pressure or weak flushing, or simply looks outdated and drags down the room’s appearance. In many cases a new WaterSense-certified faucet or toilet will pay for itself in water and energy savings, whereas continuing to fix an aging unit can cost more in the long run.
Which brands and styles do you carry, and can I supply my own fixture?
We stock and recommend proven brands such as Delta, Kohler, Moen, American Standard, Toto, Grohe, and Insinkerator, offering everything from budget-friendly chrome models to designer finishes like matte black and brushed gold. If you have already purchased a fixture online or from a local Calhoun home-improvement store, we are happy to install it as long as it meets Georgia plumbing code and comes with all required parts.
Will upgrading my fixtures really save water and lower utility bills?
Yes. Replacing a 3.5-gallon toilet with a modern 1.28-gallon WaterSense model can reduce flush water use by up to 60 %. Likewise, a WaterSense bathroom faucet aerator can cut flow from 2.2 gpm to 1.2 gpm without sacrificing pressure. For a family of four in Calhoun, that often translates to hundreds of gallons of water—and several dollars—saved every month, not to mention less demand on your water heater when hot-water fixtures are upgraded.
How long will my water be off and how much time should I allow for a typical fixture replacement?
Most single-fixture jobs take one to three hours. For example, a faucet swap generally requires about 60–90 minutes, while a toilet change-out averages two hours. Your home’s water supply is usually shut off for only 10–20 minutes during the critical connection phase, so overall disruption is minimal. When we schedule your appointment, we provide a realistic time window based on the fixture type and any special site conditions.
Do you handle permits and code compliance for plumbing fixture replacements in Calhoun?
Absolutely. While many simple like-for-like swaps do not require a city permit, larger bathroom remodels or changes to drain/water piping often do. Our team stays current with the Georgia State Minimum Standard Plumbing Code and Calhoun/Gordon County amendments. We’ll advise you if a permit or inspection is needed, file the paperwork on your behalf, and ensure the new installation meets all local codes and manufacturer warranty requirements.
