FAQs
What are the main benefits of upgrading to a modern, water-efficient toilet?
New toilets use as little as 1.28 gallons per flush (GPF) compared with the older 3.5–7 GPF models. That translates into lower water bills—often $100 or more in annual savings for a family of four—plus a smaller environmental footprint. Modern bowls also feature smoother glazing, powerful swirl or dual-flush technology for better waste removal, and quieter, faster tank refills. Many models include comfort-height seating, soft-close lids, and built-in bidet or night-light options, giving your bathroom an instant style and comfort upgrade.
How long does a typical toilet replacement take?
For a straightforward swap—removing the old unit, inspecting the flange, installing a new wax or rubber seal, and setting the new toilet—our licensed plumbers usually need about 90 minutes to two hours. If the flange is damaged, the floor needs repair, or the shut-off valve must be replaced, the visit can extend to three to four hours. We arrive with all common repair parts to keep delays to a minimum and can schedule most projects in Clinton within one business day of your call.
Can you dispose of my old toilet and handle any required permits in Clinton?
Yes. Our team removes the old toilet, recycles the porcelain when possible, and disposes of any non-recyclable materials according to Clinton’s solid-waste rules. If you’re moving plumbing lines, adding a new bathroom, or altering venting, the city may require a plumbing permit. We pull the permit on your behalf, schedule the inspection, and supply all documentation so you remain 100 % code-compliant without the paperwork headache.
What rough-in size do I need to know before ordering my new toilet?
The rough-in is the distance from the finished wall (not the baseboard) to the center of the closet bolts that hold the toilet to the floor. In Clinton homes, 12 inches is standard, but older houses sometimes have 10-inch or 14-inch rough-ins. Measure before purchasing or let our technician take the measurement during the initial visit. Buying the correct rough-in prevents return hassles and ensures the toilet sits flush against the wall without using unsightly offset flanges.
Are there financing or rebate options for high-efficiency toilets in Clinton?
Absolutely. Through partnerships with local utilities and manufacturers, many WaterSense-certified toilets qualify for rebates of $25–$100. We keep an up-to-date list of current offers and submit the paperwork for you. For larger bathroom remodels, we also provide 0 % same-as-cash financing for 6–12 months (subject to credit approval) so you can spread out the investment while enjoying water savings immediately.
How do I decide whether to repair my current toilet or replace it?
A repair makes sense if the issue is limited to a flapper, fill valve, or minor seal—usually a $100–$200 fix. Replacement is more cost-effective when you see recurring leaks, cracks in the bowl or tank, persistent clogging due to outdated trap design, or corrosion around the mounting bolts. Factor in age: toilets older than 20 years use up to four times more water than new models and often require frequent service. During our diagnostic visit, we’ll price both options and give an honest recommendation based on long-term cost, water savings, and performance.
