FAQs
What plumbing upgrades are typically included in a luxury bath remodel?
A luxury bath remodel usually involves replacing standard supply and drain lines with higher-grade copper or PEX-A tubing, adding dedicated shut-off valves, upsizing vent stacks for better drainage, installing thermostatic or digital mixing valves, and roughing-in for premium fixtures such as rainfall showers, body sprays, soaking tubs, or wall-mounted faucets. We also include pressure-balanced valves, high-efficiency traps, and optional in-line water filtration to protect new fixtures from mineral buildup common in the Chattanooga area.
Do I need to worry about Chattanooga plumbing codes and permits?
We handle all permitting for you. Chattanooga follows IPC 2021 with local amendments, which govern pipe sizing, venting, backflow prevention, and water-saving fixture requirements. Our licensed master plumbers pull the necessary permits, schedule city inspections, and ensure the remodel passes final approval, so you stay fully compliant without lifting a finger.
How long does the plumbing portion of a bathroom remodel usually take?
For a typical master bath, rough-in plumbing takes 2–4 days and final fixture set-out another 1–2 days, depending on complexity. Custom steam showers or extensive relocations can add 1–3 days. We sequence our work so other trades (tile, electrical, cabinetry) can proceed without delays, keeping the overall remodel on schedule—usually 3–5 weeks from demo to completion.
Can you relocate fixtures such as the toilet or shower in my existing bathroom?
Yes. We routinely move toilets, showers, and tubs to create a better layout or accommodate larger luxury fixtures. This involves rerouting supply lines, resizing drains, and in some cases installing a new 3" waste stack. We use camera inspections to map existing lines and design routes that maintain proper slope and venting, all while reinforcing joists if cutting is required. We’ll give you a clear cost and feasibility assessment during the design phase.
Will new high-end fixtures affect my home’s water pressure or hot water supply?
High-flow fixtures like multiple body sprays can lower pressure if the supply system isn’t upgraded. During planning we calculate fixture units and check your main service size. If needed, we upsize trunk lines, balance hot-water recirculation loops, or recommend a larger tankless or high-recovery water heater. The result is strong, consistent pressure and endless hot water—even when multiple bathrooms are in use.
What warranties or post-installation support do you offer on plumbing work?
All plumbing labor is covered by a 2-year workmanship warranty, and many premium fixture manufacturers provide limited lifetime warranties on parts. If you experience a leak, drip, or performance issue within the warranty period, we return at no charge. We also offer an optional annual inspection program that includes flushing water heaters, checking shut-off valves, and descaling faucets to keep your new bath in showroom condition.
