FAQs
Do I really need a certified technician to replace or upgrade my toilet?
Yes. In Oneida, plumbing codes require that any fixture replacement connecting to potable water lines be performed or inspected by a certified technician. Certified plumbers ensure the new toilet is installed with the correct wax ring, flange height, shut-off valve, and venting so you avoid leaks, sewer gas, or code violations. They can also pull the proper permit if your municipality requires one.
How long does a typical toilet replacement take?
For most standard toilets, our certified technician can complete removal, installation, and cleanup in 1½–2 hours. If we discover flange damage, corroded shut-off valves, or sub-floor rot, additional repairs can extend the visit, but we carry common repair parts on the truck to finish the job the same day whenever possible.
What are the benefits of upgrading to a modern high-efficiency toilet (HET)?
Today’s HET models use 1.28 gallons per flush or less—up to 60 % less water than older 3.5–7 gpf units. That can save a typical Oneida household 12,000–16,000 gallons of water per year, lowering utility costs and the strain on private wells or septic systems. Many models also feature glazed trapways for fewer clogs, quiet-close seats, and ADA-compliant bowl heights for improved comfort.
How much does a toilet replacement cost in the Oneida area?
Prices vary by toilet style, rough-in size, and any plumbing repairs needed. On average: basic two-piece replacement: $325–$475 installed; comfort-height or skirted models: $475–$700; wall-hung or smart bidet toilets: $1,200+. We provide a written, up-front quote that includes the toilet, materials, labor, haul-away, and a one-year workmanship warranty—no surprise add-ons.
Will you dispose of my old toilet and keep the work area clean?
Absolutely. Our service includes draining, removal, and environmentally responsible disposal or recycling of the old fixture. We protect your floors with drop cloths, shoe covers, and wipe down the work zone before we leave so you’re left with a spotless bathroom and a brand-new toilet ready for use.
What kind of warranty or guarantee do you offer on toilet upgrades?
All toilets we supply carry the manufacturer’s parts warranty—typically 5 to 10 years on vitreous china and 1 year on internal components. In addition, our certified technicians back their workmanship with a full one-year labor guarantee. Should any installation-related issue arise within that period, we will return at no charge to correct it.
