FAQs
What kinds of plumbing fixtures can your La Follette team replace?
We can remove and install virtually any residential or light-commercial fixture, including faucets, sinks, toilets, garbage disposals, shower valves, tubs, showerheads, outdoor spigots, and laundry hookups. If it connects to a water supply or drain line, our licensed plumbers have the tools and experience to replace it safely and in compliance with Tennessee plumbing codes.
How do I know when a fixture needs to be replaced instead of repaired?
Replacement is usually the smarter option when the fixture is more than 10–15 years old, shows visible corrosion or cracking, leaks repeatedly after multiple repairs, no longer matches efficiency standards, or parts are discontinued. During the service call we will inspect the unit, explain repair versus replacement costs, and let you decide what makes the most sense for your budget and long-term reliability.
How long does a typical fixture replacement take?
Most single-fixture jobs—such as swapping out a toilet or kitchen faucet—are completed in one to two hours. Complex projects like converting a tub to a walk-in shower or relocating plumbing lines can take a full day or longer. Before work begins we provide a written time estimate so you’ll know exactly what to expect and can plan around water shut-offs.
Can you supply the new fixtures, or should I purchase them myself?
Whichever is easier for you. Many customers prefer that we handle procurement because we can source professional-grade fixtures at contractor pricing, ensure all parts are included, and register warranties on your behalf. If you have already picked out a model from a local La Follette retailer or online, we’re happy to install it—just keep the manufacturer’s instructions and any trim pieces on hand.
Are permits or inspections required for fixture replacements in La Follette?
Simple like-for-like swaps (e.g., replacing an existing faucet) typically don’t require a permit. However, if the work involves altering drain lines, moving supply piping, or upgrading to back-flow-protected fixtures, the City of La Follette or Campbell County may require a permit and/or inspection. Our office will determine the requirements for your project, pull any necessary permits, and schedule inspections so you remain fully compliant.
How much does fixture replacement cost and do you offer warranties?
Costs vary by fixture type, accessibility, and whether shut-off valves or drain assemblies also need updating. For reference, faucet replacements usually start around $150, toilets around $225, and garbage disposals around $200 (labor only). We provide upfront, flat-rate quotes before beginning work. All labor is covered by our 1-year workmanship warranty, and most fixtures we supply carry manufacturer warranties ranging from 1 year to lifetime on parts and finishes.
