FAQs
What are the main benefits of upgrading to a premium toilet fixture?
Premium toilets offer superior flushing performance, enhanced water efficiency (often 1.28 GPF or less), quieter operation, sleeker aesthetics, built-in bidet or washlet functions, and durable glazing that resists stains and mineral build-up. These features improve comfort, hygiene, and can lower long-term water and maintenance costs.
How long does a typical toilet replacement take from removal to final testing?
For most homes in Guild, a standard replacement—including shut-off, removal of the existing toilet, flange inspection, installation of the new premium fixture, caulking, and performance testing—takes 2–3 hours. Complexities such as flange repair, relocating the rough-in, or integrating smart/bidet seats can extend the timeframe to half a day.
Will my existing plumbing need to be modified to accommodate a premium toilet?
In the majority of cases, a modern premium toilet will fit a standard 12-inch rough-in without major alterations. If your current setup is a 10-inch or 14-inch rough-in, or if you’re upgrading to a wall-hung or skirted model, minor adjustments—such as changing the closet flange height, adding carrier brackets, or rerouting supply lines—may be required. Our technicians perform a pre-installation inspection to flag any modifications and quote them upfront.
Are premium toilets really more water-efficient, and can they lower my utility bills?
Yes. Premium toilets use advanced bowl geometry and pressure-assisted or double-cyclone flushing to deliver strong performance with less water—typically 1.28 gallons per flush (GPF) or dual-flush 0.8/1.28 GPF. Over a year, a family of four can save 13,000–16,000 gallons of water compared with a 3.5 GPF older toilet, reducing water bills by 20–30% in most Guild households.
What warranties and after-sales support do you provide?
All premium fixtures we install carry a manufacturer’s parts warranty of 5–10 years (varies by brand) and our own 2-year labor warranty covering leaks, sealing issues, or installation defects. We also offer an optional annual maintenance plan that includes free flush-valve tune-ups, seal inspections, and priority service scheduling.
How do you dispose of my old toilet, and is it environmentally responsible?
After removal, we transport your old porcelain fixture to a recycling facility where it is crushed for use in roadbed aggregate or new tile manufacturing. Metals and plastic components are separated and recycled according to local regulations. This service is included in every replacement package, ensuring an eco-friendly disposal process.
