FAQs
What types of plumbing fixtures can you upgrade in my Old Fort home?
We can replace or install virtually any residential plumbing fixture, including faucets, sinks, toilets, showerheads, tub fillers, garbage disposals, outdoor spigots, and laundry-room utility sinks. If you have a specialty item—such as a touchless kitchen faucet, a rain-style showerhead, or a tankless toilet—our licensed technicians have the training and tools to handle it.
How long does a typical fixture upgrade take?
Most single-fixture upgrades (e.g., swapping out a faucet or toilet) are completed in one visit lasting 1–3 hours. Larger projects—such as converting a standard tub/shower combo to a walk-in shower with multiple body sprays—may take one to two full days. Once we see your existing plumbing and the new fixture specifications, we’ll give you a precise timeline before any work begins.
Can you help me choose water-efficient fixtures that qualify for rebates?
Absolutely. We stay current on EPA WaterSense-certified products and local utility rebate programs in McDowell County. During our consultation we’ll recommend fixtures that reduce water use by 20–30 %, explain potential savings on your water bill, and provide the paperwork you’ll need to claim any available rebates.
Will upgrading my fixtures require a plumbing permit in Old Fort?
For like-for-like replacements, the Town of Old Fort typically does not require a permit. However, if we relocate plumbing lines, alter drain sizes, or install new shut-off valves, McDowell County building codes may mandate a permit and inspection. We handle the permitting process for you, ensuring all work meets state and local codes.
How much should I budget for a fixture upgrade?
Costs depend on the fixture type, brand, and any modifications to existing plumbing. As a rough guide: faucet upgrades usually run $275–$600 (labor and standard fixture included), toilets $450–$900, and full shower system replacements $1,500–$4,000. We provide a detailed, no-obligation quote after an on-site assessment so there are no surprises.
Do you guarantee your fixture upgrade work?
Yes. All labor comes with a 1-year workmanship warranty, and we register any manufacturer warranties on your behalf. If you experience leaks, drips, or operational issues related to our installation within 12 months, we’ll return promptly and correct the problem at no charge.
