FAQs
What does “up-front pricing” mean for toilet upgrades and replacements in Old Fort?
Up-front pricing means that after our technician inspects your existing toilet and confirms the scope of work, you receive one firm, written price that covers the entire job—including the new toilet, parts, labor, haul-away, and taxes. The price will not change even if the work takes longer than expected, so you never face hidden fees or surprise add-ons.
How can I tell whether my toilet should be repaired, upgraded, or completely replaced?
Common signs you should consider an upgrade or replacement include cracks in the tank or bowl, persistent clogs, frequent running or refilling, wobbling at the base, outdated water consumption (3.5 gpf or higher), and visible wear such as staining or corrosion around bolts. Our plumbers can inspect the unit, test for leaks, and measure flush volume to determine whether a cost-effective repair is possible or if a replacement will save water and money long-term.
Which toilet brands and performance options do you offer?
We stock and install major brands trusted for durability and parts availability—such as Kohler, American Standard, Toto, and Gerber. You can choose from standard-height or comfort-height bowls, round or elongated seats, 1.28 gpf WaterSense models, dual-flush designs, pressure-assist systems for commercial strength flushing, and even bidet-seat-ready models. Our technician will bring a catalog with pictures, specs, and prices so you can select the style that matches your décor and budget.
How long does a typical toilet replacement take from start to finish?
Most standard replacements in Old Fort are completed in 2–3 hours. That timeline includes draining and removing the old unit, inspecting and cleaning the flange, installing a new wax (or wax-free) ring, setting and shimming the new toilet, connecting the water supply line, testing for leaks, and hauling the old fixture away. If flange repairs or subfloor work are needed, we’ll explain the additional time and cost before proceeding—still under our up-front pricing model.
Do I need a permit or inspection in Old Fort for a residential toilet replacement?
A simple like-for-like toilet swap usually does not require a plumbing permit under local codes. However, if we have to move the drain line, modify venting, or perform structural subfloor repairs, the City/County Building Department may require a permit and inspection. We handle all permit paperwork when it’s necessary and include applicable fees in your quoted price, so you remain compliant without extra hassle.
Will you dispose of my old toilet, and is cleanup included in the quoted price?
Yes. Responsible removal and disposal of your old toilet are part of our standard service. We protect flooring with drop cloths, remove any debris, disinfect the work area, and haul the old fixture to an approved recycling or disposal facility. All labor, disposal fees, and cleanup are included in the up-front price you approve before work begins.
