FAQs
What kinds of plumbing fixtures can your licensed plumbers replace in Hixson?
Our team is licensed, bonded, and insured to replace virtually any residential or light-commercial plumbing fixture, including faucets, sinks, toilets, garbage disposals, dishwashers, showers, tubs, hose bibbs, angle stops, and even water-using appliances such as ice makers or washing-machine boxes. If water flows through it, we can typically remove the old unit, upgrade supply lines, set new shut-off valves, and install a code-compliant replacement.
How can I tell whether a fixture needs repair or full replacement?
Age, visible corrosion, chronic leaks, low flow despite open valves, and widespread cracks are signs a fixture has reached the end of its service life. If repair costs exceed 50 % of a new fixture, replacement is usually more cost-effective. Our plumbers perform a no-obligation inspection, check water pressure, evaluate internal cartridge or flush-valve wear, and give you an honest repair-vs-replace estimate so you can make an informed decision.
Do I need a permit to replace a plumbing fixture in Hixson, and will you take care of it?
Simple one-for-one swaps of faucets or toilets normally do not require a building permit in Hamilton County. However, relocating a fixture, adding a new drain/supply line, or installing a tankless water heater does trigger the plumbing permitting process. Because we are state-licensed plumbers, we can pull any necessary permits, schedule municipal inspections, and ensure the project meets the 2021 International Plumbing Code adopted by Hixson authorities.
What is the typical cost for common fixture replacements?
Prices vary with fixture quality and site conditions, but average ballpark ranges are: • Standard faucet: $225 – $350 installed • Toilet (elongated, chair-height): $400 – $650 installed • Garbage disposal (½–¾ HP): $300 – $475 installed • 40-gal gas water heater: $1,200 – $1,600 installed (includes permit and haul-away) We provide written, upfront quotes that include parts, labor, basic supply-line upgrades, disposal of the old unit, and sales tax—no hidden fees.
How long will the replacement take, and will my water be shut off?
Most single fixtures—like a faucet or toilet—take 1–2 hours to remove, prep, and install. Water service is typically shut off only to the affected branch line, not the entire home, and usually for less than 30 minutes. Complex jobs such as a water heater or shower valve rough-in can run 3–5 hours; we coordinate with you to minimize disruption and restore water as quickly as possible.
Do your replacements come with warranties, and which brands do you recommend?
Yes. All workmanship is covered by our 1-year labor warranty. Manufacturer warranties apply to the fixtures themselves—generally 5 years for disposals and limited lifetime for many faucets and toilets. We are certified installers for Moen, Delta, Kohler, American Standard, Insinkerator, and Rheem, but we can install any major brand you prefer. By using OEM parts and following factory specs, we keep your manufacturer warranty fully intact.
