FAQs
What are the main benefits of upgrading my toilet to a modern high-efficiency model?
High-efficiency toilets (HETs) use as little as 1.28 gallons per flush—up to 60 % less water than older 3.5-gpf units—cutting annual water bills by $50–$100 for the average Oneida household. They also feature advanced siphon or pressure-assist flushing, glazed trapways that reduce clogs, quieter operation, and sleeker designs that free up bathroom space. Many models qualify for state or utility rebates, making the net upgrade cost surprisingly affordable.
How can I tell when its time to replace my existing toilet rather than repair it?
If you experience chronic clogging, hairline cracks in the tank or bowl, wobbling due to a deteriorated flange, or visible porcelain wear that makes cleaning difficult, replacement is usually the most cost-effective answer. Toilets made before 1994 can use 2–3 times more water per flush; replacing them can pay for itself within two to three years through lower utility bills. Our technicians provide a free in-home evaluation to confirm whether repair or replacement is the smarter long-term solution.
Which industry-leading brands do you install in the Oneida area, and what warranties do they carry?
We are certified installers for American Standard, Kohler, TOTO, Gerber, and Niagara Conservation. Factory warranties range from 5-year limited (Gerber Viper series) to 10-year or lifetime limited coverage on porcelain and internal parts (Kohler Cimarron, TOTO Drake II). Because were an authorized service partner, any warranty claims are handled directly through our office—no shipping fixtures back to the manufacturer.
How long does a professional toilet replacement take, and will my water be shut off for the whole day?
Most standard replacements take 90 minutes to two hours from shut-off to final cleanup. We isolate only the bathrooms supply line, so the rest of your homes water stays on. If flange repairs or flooring modifications are required, allow an extra hour. Our plumbers arrive with floor protection, remove and haul away the old toilet, install the new wax or rubber seal, level and secure the bowl, connect the tank, test for leaks, and sanitize the area before leaving.
Can I add a bidet seat, night-light, or other smart features to a new toilet?
Absolutely. Most of the brands we carry offer elongated bowls drilled to accept aftermarket or brand-specific bidet seats with integrated warm water, air-dry, and deodorizer functions. We can install GFCI outlets near the toilet and route concealed water supply tees for a clean look. Motion-activated flush plates, overflow alarms, and touchless lids are also available. Just let us know your wish list during the consultation so we can recommend compatible models.
What should I budget for a toilet upgrade in Oneida, and are rebates available?
Installed prices start around $575 for a basic WaterSense two-piece unit, range $800–$1,200 for comfort-height or skirted designs, and reach $1,600+ for pressure-assist or smart toilets with integrated bidets. The New York State Environmental Facilities Corporation (EFC) currently offers a $75 WaterSense rebate, and National Grid customers may qualify for an additional $50 credit. We handle all paperwork and deduct the rebate from your invoice so you see the savings immediately.
