FAQs
When should I consider replacing my toilet instead of repairing it?
A replacement is usually recommended when the porcelain bowl or tank is cracked, the unit is more than 20 years old, repair parts are no longer available, or repeated clogs and leaks keep occurring. Modern toilets are far more water-efficient, so upgrading can also cut your water bill by up to 60 %—an important consideration in Clairfield where utility costs continue to rise.
What types of high-efficiency toilets do you install?
Our licensed Clairfield plumbers install WaterSense-certified single-flush, dual-flush, pressure-assisted, and wall-hung toilets. Each model uses 1.28 gpf (gallons per flush) or less, compared to older 3.5–7 gpf units. We carry major brands such as Toto, Kohler, and American Standard and can advise on bowl height, rough-in size, and comfort features like soft-close seats or bidet attachments.
How long does a typical toilet replacement take?
Most residential swaps take 1½–2 hours, including removal of the old unit, flange inspection, installation of a new shut-off valve if needed, and a final leak and flush test. If the flange is damaged or the flooring requires repair, the job can extend to half a day, but we’ll give you a firm timeline after our on-site assessment.
Do I really need a licensed plumber for a toilet upgrade?
Yes. In Tennessee, toilet replacements that involve altering the water supply or drain connection must be performed by a state-licensed plumber to comply with the 2021 International Plumbing Code adopted by Clairfield. A licensed pro ensures watertight seals, correct venting, flange height, and proper disposal of the old fixture—preventing hidden leaks that could void home insurance or violate warranty terms.
What does a toilet replacement cost in Clairfield?
Costs run $400–$950 on average. Basic gravity-flush models start near $200 installed, while dual-flush or skirted designs range $600–$800. Premium pressure-assist or smart bidet toilets can exceed $1,200. The price includes labor, wax ring, supply line, and haul-away fees. We provide upfront, itemized quotes with no surprises.
Will you dispose of my old toilet and ensure code compliance?
Absolutely. We remove and recycle or legally dispose of your old fixture at approved facilities, keeping porcelain out of landfills when possible. After installation we pull the required municipal permit, schedule inspection if needed, and give you a signed completion certificate for your records—verifying the work meets Clairfield plumbing code and manufacturer warranty standards.
