FAQs
When should I consider replacing my toilet instead of repairing it?
Replacement is usually recommended if the porcelain bowl or tank is cracked, the toilet wobbles because of sub-surface damage, parts are obsolete or hard to find, or the unit uses more than 3.5 gallons per flush (pre-1994 models). Upgrading also makes sense when recurring leaks, clogs, or running water are inflating your Greenback utility bill. A new, properly sized toilet will meet current plumbing codes, save water, and lower maintenance costs.
What eco-friendly or water-saving toilet options do you offer in Greenback?
Our licensed plumbers install high-efficiency toilets (HETs) that use 1.28 gallons per flush or less, dual-flush models that let you choose a reduced flush for liquids, and pressure-assisted units that clear the bowl with minimal water. Many of these products carry the EPA WaterSense label, which can qualify Greenback homeowners for state or local rebates. We can also add insulated tanks or skirted designs to reduce condensation and simplify cleaning.
How long does a professional toilet replacement take and will my water be shut off?
A straightforward swap—removing the old toilet, inspecting the flange, installing a new wax ring, and setting the new fixture—usually takes 1½–2 hours. Complex jobs that require flange repair, shut-off valve replacement, or subfloor work may take half a day. We typically shut water off only at the fixture’s supply valve, so the rest of your home remains in service. If the main must be closed, we schedule the brief outage around your convenience.
Can your licensed plumbers dispose of my old toilet and handle permits in Greenback?
Yes. We disconnect, drain, and remove the old unit, then recycle porcelain or dispose of it per Loudon County solid-waste rules. Because we’re state-licensed and insured, we can pull any required plumbing permits with the City of Greenback on your behalf and arrange final inspections when needed. This ensures your installation meets the latest International Plumbing Code and local amendments.
How much does a typical toilet upgrade cost, and what factors affect the final price?
In Greenback, basic replacement with a customer-supplied standard gravity-flush toilet starts around $275–$350. Pricing rises with factors such as premium fixtures, concealed-trapway or wall-hung designs, flange repairs, valve relocations, or rough-in changes from 10" to 12"/14". We provide written, up-front estimates that include labor, disposal, new supply lines, wax seals, and sales tax, so there are no surprises on your final invoice.
Are there warranties or service guarantees on the new toilet and your installation work?
Most manufacturers offer a limited lifetime warranty on vitreous china and 1–5 years on internal parts. As certified installers, we register your product for you and provide our own 1-year labor guarantee covering leaks, seal failures, or workmanship defects. If an issue arises within that period, a Greenback plumber will return promptly at no charge to correct it. Extended service plans are also available for added peace of mind.
