FAQs
What advantages does a one-piece toilet offer over a traditional two-piece model?
One-piece toilets have the tank and bowl molded together, leaving no seam for leaks, wobble, or bacteria buildup. They are easier to keep clean, usually quieter when refilling, and often come with modern, high-efficiency flushing systems that use less water. The sleeker, low-profile design can also save a few inches of space—an important consideration in many Maynardville homes where bathrooms tend to be on the smaller side.
How long does a typical one-piece toilet replacement take from start to finish?
For most jobs in Maynardville we schedule a two-hour service window. Removal of the old toilet takes 20–30 minutes, inspection and preparation of the flange and water shut-off another 15–20 minutes, and installation plus caulking of the new one-piece unit about 45–60 minutes. We then perform a leak and flush test and haul away your old toilet. Barring unexpected flange damage or floor repairs, you’ll have a fully functional new toilet in roughly 90 minutes.
Will a new one-piece toilet fit my existing rough-in distance and plumbing?
Standard rough-in for most homes in the Maynardville area is 12 inches from the finished wall to the center of the closet flange. Nearly all modern one-piece models are designed for this distance, but we also carry 10-inch and 14-inch rough-in units for older or custom homes. During our free pre-installation visit we measure your rough-in, assess floor level, verify shut-off valve condition, and confirm clearance around the toilet to ensure the model you choose fits perfectly.
Are there any local water-saving incentives or code requirements I should know about?
Yes. Maynardville follows the 2018 Tennessee Plumbing Code, which limits new residential toilets to a maximum of 1.28 gallons per flush (GPF). Upgrading to a WaterSense-certified one-piece model automatically meets this requirement. Union County residents may also qualify for a $25–$50 water-efficiency rebate through the Tennessee Valley Authority’s home-performance program; we supply the rebate form and proof of purchase at installation.
How do I select the right height, bowl shape, and flushing technology?
We recommend considering three main factors: 1. Bowl Height – Standard height is 14–15 inches, while comfort (ADA) height is 16.5–17.5 inches and easier for adults with limited mobility. 2. Bowl Shape – Elongated bowls provide a larger seating area and improved comfort; round bowls save about 2 inches of depth for tight bathrooms. 3. Flushing System – Choose between gravity-feed (quiet, simple, fewer parts) and pressure-assist (powerful, great for homes with frequent clogs). Our showroom in Maynardville lets you compare models side-by-side, and our technicians will walk you through pros, cons, and price points.
What is the price range for a one-piece toilet replacement and what does your quote include?
Most complete replacements fall between $650 and $1,100, depending on the brand, flushing technology, seat features (soft-close, bidet, heated), and any flange repairs. Our upfront quote includes the new toilet, wax or waxless seal, all mounting hardware, a braided stainless water supply line, professional installation, disposal of your old unit, and a two-year labor warranty. There are no trip fees for addresses within 25 miles of downtown Maynardville.
