FAQs
What kinds of plumbing fixtures can you replace in my Palmer home?
We can replace virtually any residential plumbing fixture, including sinks, faucets, showerheads, bathtubs, toilets, garbage disposals, outdoor hose bibs, laundry sinks, and even specialty fixtures like pot-filler faucets and bar sinks. If you have an older or discontinued model, we’ll source compatible modern equivalents or order specialty parts to ensure a seamless upgrade.
How do I know when it’s time to replace a dated fixture instead of repairing it?
Frequent leaks, chronic clogging, visible corrosion, cracks in porcelain, or finishes that have worn down to bare metal are strong indicators that replacement is smarter than repair. Additionally, fixtures older than 20 years typically lack today’s water-saving technology and can cost more to keep repairing than to replace. During our on-site evaluation, we’ll provide an honest assessment of whether a repair or full replacement offers the best long-term value.
Do new fixtures really save water and money?
Yes. Modern WaterSense-certified faucets and showerheads can reduce water usage by up to 30 %, and high-efficiency toilets (HETs) use as little as 1.28 gallons per flush compared to older 3.5-gallon models. In Palmer, where water and sewer fees continue to rise, these savings translate directly to lower utility bills while also lessening strain on the local water supply.
How long does a typical fixture replacement take?
Most single-fixture swaps—such as a faucet or toilet—are completed in one to two hours. Multi-fixture bathroom refreshes generally take half a day, and full kitchen re-plumbing can run one to two days depending on countertop or cabinetry modifications. We schedule work to minimize downtime, and your water service is usually interrupted for less than 30 minutes per fixture.
Will you handle permits and disposal of the old fixtures?
Absolutely. Palmer’s plumbing code may require a permit for certain fixture replacements, especially if drain or vent lines are modified. We pull all necessary permits, coordinate inspections, and dispose of your old fixtures in an environmentally responsible manner—recycling metal components whenever possible.
How much will fixture replacement cost and is there any warranty?
Pricing varies by fixture type and brand: faucets generally range from $200–$450 installed, toilets from $400–$700, and full vanity sink setups from $600–$1,200. We provide a firm, upfront quote before work begins. All labor is covered by our 1-year workmanship warranty, and most manufacturers offer 5-lifetime limited warranties on the fixtures themselves, which we register on your behalf.
