FAQs
Do I need a permit for plumbing work during a bathroom remodel in Estill Springs?
Yes. Any time supply, drain, or vent lines are added, moved, or substantially modified, Franklin County’s Building & Codes Department requires a residential plumbing permit. As a state-licensed plumbing contractor, we handle the application, schedule the rough-in and final inspections, and make sure every step meets the current Tennessee Plumbing Code.
How long does the plumbing rough-in portion of a bathroom remodel typically take?
For a standard remodel that keeps fixtures in the same locations, rough-in usually takes 1–2 working days, followed by an inspection. If you’re relocating a tub, shower, or toilet—or converting to a walk-in shower—the timeline extends to 3–5 days to allow for extra demolition, rerouting of waste and vent lines, pressure testing, and structural work before inspection.
Can I move my toilet or shower to a new spot in the bathroom?
Absolutely. Moving fixtures is common, but it requires careful planning. We evaluate crawl-space or slab access, verify that slope (¼" per foot) can be maintained for the new drain run, and check whether the vent stack needs to be re-configured. Because relocating a toilet or shower increases labor and material costs, we provide a detailed written estimate up front so you can weigh the benefits against the budget.
What water-saving fixtures do you recommend, and are rebates available locally?
We suggest EPA WaterSense-certified toilets (1.28 gpf or less), low-flow faucets (≤1.2 gpm), and pressure-balanced or thermostatic shower valves. Franklin County Utility District periodically offers a $50 rebate for qualifying high-efficiency toilets, and some TVA programs provide incentives for energy-efficient water heaters. We supply the documentation you’ll need to claim any current rebates.
How much should I budget for the plumbing portion of a bathroom remodel in Estill Springs?
For a mid-range remodel with new valves, faucets, and updated supply lines—but no fixture relocation—expect $2,500–$6,500. Projects that relocate fixtures, install custom showers, or upgrade old cast-iron drains typically run $7,000–$12,000. These figures include permits, rough-in materials, trim-out, and labor but exclude finishes such as tile or cabinetry. We provide free on-site quotes to give you an exact number.
Do you offer emergency service if I experience a plumbing issue after the remodel is finished?
Yes. All our remodel plumbing comes with a one-year workmanship warranty. If you have a leak, clog, or other urgent problem, call our 24/7 emergency line and a licensed technician can usually be at your Estill Springs home within 90 minutes. Warranty calls are free during the first year; after that, standard service rates apply.
