FAQs
When should I consider upgrading or replacing my toilet?
Common signals include recurring clogs, cracks in the bowl or tank, constant running water, high water bills linked to an older 13-litre-per-flush model, visible mineral build-up, or wobbling at the base. If your current toilet is more than 15–20 years old, a replacement can improve performance and efficiency while preventing surprise leaks that may damage flooring.
What modern toilet options can your certified plumbers install in Guild?
We supply and fit close-coupled, back-to-wall, wall-hung, comfort-height, dual-flush, rimless, pressure-assist and smart toilets. During our no-obligation survey we’ll review your soil pipe location, water pressure, bathroom layout and accessibility needs, then recommend models that meet Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999, WRAS listings and your budget.
How long does a professional toilet replacement take from start to finish?
A straightforward like-for-like swap generally takes 2–3 hours, including removal, flange inspection, new wax or rubber seal installation, levelling, and testing. If we relocate pipework, repair sub-floor rot or fit a wall carrier frame, the job can extend to 4–6 hours or a full day. We provide a precise schedule after the site assessment so you know exactly what to expect.
Will a new high-efficiency toilet really save water and money?
Yes. Modern dual-flush toilets use 4–6 L for a full flush and 2.5–3 L for a half flush, compared with older toilets that consume up to 13 L each time. For a family of four, this can cut annual water use by about 25,000 L and shave £60–£100 off your bill. Some models also qualify for Severn Trent or Thames Water rebate programmes, which we can help you claim.
Do you dispose of my old toilet and clean up after the installation?
Absolutely. Our service includes safe removal of the old fixture, separation of recyclable ceramics, and disposal at an authorised waste facility in line with the Environmental Protection Act. We protect surrounding surfaces, vacuum any debris, disinfect the work area and leave your bathroom ready for immediate use.
How much does a toilet upgrade or replacement cost in Guild, and what affects the price?
Costs typically range from £240 to £480 for supply and installation of a quality close-coupled dual-flush toilet. Factors influencing price include the toilet style (wall-hung frames and smart toilets are more), required pipe modifications, floor repairs, premium seat features, and any out-of-hours call-outs. All quotations are fixed-price, itemised and include parts, labour, VAT and a 12-month workmanship guarantee.
