FAQs
What types of plumbing fixtures can your Georgetown technicians replace?
Our licensed plumbers can replace a full range of residential and light-commercial fixtures, including kitchen and bathroom faucets, toilets, shower valves, tub spouts, garbage disposals, utility sinks, hose bibbs, and laundry-room connections. We also handle specialty items such as touchless faucets, bidet seats, water-saving showerheads, and ADA-compliant fixtures.
How can I tell if a fixture should be repaired or completely replaced?
In general, we recommend replacement when a fixture is over 10–15 years old, shows visible corrosion or cracking, leaks repeatedly after repairs, or no longer meets current efficiency standards. A brief inspection by our Georgetown technician can compare the cost of parts and labor for repair versus the long-term savings and reliability of installing a new fixture.
How long does a typical plumbing fixture replacement take?
Most single-fixture replacements—such as a faucet or toilet—are completed within 1–2 hours once we arrive. More complex projects, like replacing multiple bathroom fixtures or relocating supply lines, can take half a day. We provide a time estimate upfront after assessing access, shut-off valve condition, and any code upgrades that may be required.
Are permits required for fixture replacements in Georgetown, and do you handle them?
Simple like-for-like swaps (e.g., replacing a faucet with the same type) generally do not need a permit. However, any work that alters the plumbing system—moving a drain, adding a new shut-off, or upgrading a water heater—does require permitting under Georgetown’s building code. Our team verifies local requirements, submits permit applications when necessary, and schedules any required city inspections so you stay fully compliant.
Will upgrading my fixtures really save water and lower my utility bills?
Yes. Modern WaterSense-certified faucets and showerheads use up to 30% less water without sacrificing pressure, while high-efficiency toilets can cut flushing water in half. For a family of four, those savings can translate to 2,000–3,000 gallons per year—reducing both water and sewer charges. We can recommend fixtures with proven performance ratings so you see noticeable savings right away.
What should I do to prepare for my fixture replacement appointment?
Clear out the cabinet, vanity, or area around the fixture so the plumber has easy access. Make sure the main shut-off valve is accessible and inform us of any quirks in your system (e.g., a stubborn gate valve). If you’ve already purchased a replacement fixture, leave it in the work area with any included hardware. Finally, keep pets and children away from the workspace for safety.
