FAQs
When should I consider upgrading or replacing my toilet?
Most Fayetteville homeowners start thinking about replacement when they notice frequent clogs, cracks in the porcelain, leaking around the base, or skyrocketing water bills caused by an older 3.5–7 gpf (gallons per flush) unit. In many cases, toilets more than 15 years old are far less efficient than today’s WaterSense-certified models, so upgrading can immediately lower water use by 20–60 %. Our licensed plumbers can inspect your current fixture, evaluate any damage, and let you know whether a simple repair, a component replacement, or a full upgrade is the most cost-effective route.
What are the advantages of installing a high-efficiency or dual-flush toilet?
High-efficiency toilets (HETs) use 1.28 gpf or less, and dual-flush models let you choose a partial flush for liquid waste (about 0.8–1.1 gpf) or a full flush for solids (1.28 gpf). By switching, the average family of four in Fayetteville can save roughly 13,000 gallons of water and up to $130 in utility costs each year. These units also meet Arkansas plumbing code, qualify for many local utility rebates, and often feature advanced glazing that resists staining and makes cleaning easier.
How long does a typical toilet replacement take?
For a straightforward swap with the same rough-in dimension (most homes are 12 inches), our crew can remove the old toilet, prepare the flange, install the new unit, test for leaks, and clean up in about 1.5–2 hours. If the floor or flange is damaged, or the rough-in needs to be moved, the job can extend to half a day or longer. We always provide a time estimate after the on-site evaluation so you have a clear schedule.
Will you dispose of my old toilet and handle the required permits?
Yes. As part of our turnkey service, we unbolt, drain, and remove your existing toilet, then transport it to an approved construction-waste facility or recycling center. If your project involves relocating plumbing lines or altering vent stacks—work that Fayetteville code classifies as a plumbing system modification—we pull all necessary permits and arrange final inspection so you stay 100 % compliant without extra hassle.
How do I know if a new toilet will fit my bathroom’s plumbing?
The critical measurement is the rough-in—the distance from the finished wall to the closet bolt caps (or the flange’s center). Standard rough-ins are 12 in., but older homes may have 10 or 14 in. Our plumbers measure during the initial visit, confirm clearance for the tank and bowl, check the supply-line location, and recommend models guaranteed to fit. If you’re interested in a skirted or wall-hung toilet, we’ll verify framing and carrier requirements before ordering.
What does a professional toilet replacement cost in the Fayetteville area?
Prices vary with brand, flushing technology, and any bathroom repairs required, but most homeowners spend $450–$900 for supply-line replacement, wax ring, labor, haul-away, and a quality standard-height, two-piece HET. Premium comfort-height, one-piece, or smart toilets with bidet functions can range from $1,200 to $4,000 installed. We give a detailed quote upfront—no hidden fees—and all work is backed by our labor warranty plus the manufacturer’s parts warranty.
