FAQs
How do I know it’s time to replace my current toilet instead of repairing it?
Frequent clogs, surface cracks, wobbling at the base, rising water bills from leaks, outdated 3.5-gpf or higher water usage, and costly recurring repairs are all signs that a replacement will be more economical and reliable. During a service call we perform a full inspection, measure bowl and tank integrity with dye-tests for hidden leaks, and check Mountain City code compliance. If two or more major components—flapper, fill valve, wax ring, or tank bolts—need replacement, we generally recommend installing a modern high-efficiency model.
What advantages do today’s high-efficiency or dual-flush toilets offer Mountain City homeowners?
Modern units use as little as 1.28 gallons per flush (GPF) compared with older 3.5 – 5 GPF models, cutting water consumption by up to 60 %. Dual-flush designs let you choose a 0.8 GPF rinse for liquids or 1.28 GPF for solids, saving an average family more than 13,000 gallons a year. Other benefits include glazed trapways that resist stains, comfort-height bowls for easier sitting and standing, soft-close seats, and WaterSense certification that can qualify you for Mountain City Utility District rebates.
How long does a typical toilet upgrade or full replacement take?
For a standard floor-mounted model, our licensed plumbers usually complete removal, installation, sealing, and testing in 1.5 to 2 hours. Wall-hung or bidet-combo toilets may take 3–4 hours because of additional carrier frame and drain work. We schedule two-hour arrival windows anywhere in Mountain City, come prepared with shoe covers and drop cloths, and finish with a 20-point inspection to leave your bathroom sparkling-clean and ready for use immediately.
Will you haul away my old toilet and leave the bathroom clean?
Absolutely. Our sparkling-clean pledge includes vacuuming any debris, disinfecting the floor, polishing chrome, and taking the old fixture to an approved recycling center at no extra charge. We also provide eco-friendly disposal slips upon request so you can document responsible waste handling in Mountain City.
Do I need permits or inspections for a toilet replacement in Mountain City?
Most like-for-like toilet swaps do not require a building permit, but any relocation of the drain line, addition of bidet spray connections, or modifications to structural walls do. Mountain City follows the 2021 International Plumbing Code, enforced by the City Building & Codes Department. We handle all paperwork, schedule same-day inspections when necessary, and guarantee that every installation passes on the first visit.
What will a new toilet and professional installation cost?
Prices vary by style and features, but most homeowners spend $350–$650 for a quality WaterSense-rated toilet and $225–$325 for labor, inclusive of wax ring, supply line, sealant, and old unit disposal. Smart toilets with heated seats or integrated bidet functions range from $1,200–$3,000 plus additional installation time. We provide upfront, itemized estimates, offer 0 % financing for 12 months, and honor a five-year parts and labor warranty on all Mountain City installations.
