FAQs

What toilet upgrade or replacement services do you offer in Manchester?

We cover the full spectrum of toilet work—everything from fitting a like-for-like replacement pan and cistern to installing modern close-coupled, wall-hung, or comfort-height units. Our Gas Safe-registered engineers can also move soil pipes, fit concealed frames, upgrade flush mechanisms, seal and tile around the new suite, and carry out any related plumbing repairs. All work is delivered in accordance with Water Regulations and local Manchester building control requirements.

Why should I choose a Gas Safe-registered engineer for toilet installation?

Although replacing a toilet does not involve gas, many bathrooms combine plumbing with gas appliances such as combi-boiler–fed showers or underfloor heating. Using a single Gas Safe-registered team means every connected system—water, waste, heating, and ventilation—is installed safely and tested as a whole. You gain the assurance of qualified workmanship, full public liability cover, and a compliance certificate where required.

How long does a typical toilet replacement take?

A straightforward like-for-like swap usually takes 2–3 hours, including draining the cistern, disconnecting the old unit, fitting the new pan and cistern, and testing for leaks. Jobs that involve re-tiling, floor repairs, or moving pipework can extend to a full day. We’ll give you an accurate time estimate after the on-site survey, and we always aim to minimise disruption by protecting flooring and removing waste immediately.

Can you dispose of my old toilet and help me choose a water-efficient model?

Yes. As part of our service we remove and ethically dispose of your old toilet at a licensed waste facility. We can also advise on eco-friendly dual-flush systems, rimless designs, and low-flow siphons that meet the latest DEFRA and Water Label requirements. Many customers in Greater Manchester cut their water bills by up to 6,000 litres a year after upgrading.

What are the signs that my toilet needs upgrading or replacing?

Persistent leaks around the base, hairline cracks in the pan or cistern, constant running water, difficulty flushing, wobbling or loose fixtures, and outdated single-flush mechanisms are common indicators. Upgrading is also recommended if your current toilet is over 20 years old, as newer models use as little as 4–6 litres per flush compared to older 13 litre cisterns.

How much does a toilet upgrade or replacement cost and do you provide free quotes?

Prices start from £199 for a basic replacement using customer-supplied sanitaryware. Premium wall-hung or back-to-wall systems that require concealed frames and waste alterations typically range from £450–£750 including parts. All quotes are free, fixed-price, and itemised, with no hidden call-out fees within the Manchester M postcode area. We also offer finance options on upgrades over £500.
