FAQs
What are the main signs that my toilet needs to be replaced rather than repaired?
Frequent clogging, cracks in the tank or bowl, constant running water, wobbling at the base, and repeated repair calls all indicate it’s more cost-effective to replace the fixture. A new toilet will also meet current efficiency standards, saving water and lowering utility bills.
What modern or high-efficiency toilets can your licensed plumbers install in Palmer?
We offer dual-flush, pressure-assisted, skirted, comfort-height, and smart bidet-integrated models from leading brands. All units meet Alaska and EPA WaterSense efficiency requirements, so you can expect reliable performance and reduced water usage.
How long does a typical toilet upgrade or replacement take?
For most residential jobs, our plumbers complete removal of the old unit, inspection of the flange and supply line, installation of the new toilet, and final testing in 2–3 hours. Complications such as flange repair or subfloor damage can extend the project, but we’ll give you a time estimate before work begins.
Do I need a permit to replace a toilet in Palmer, and do you handle code compliance?
Simple like-for-like swaps generally don’t require a building permit, but upgrades involving drain line modifications, flange relocation, or ADA compliance adjustments may. Our licensed plumbers stay current with local codes and will secure any necessary permits, ensuring your installation passes inspection.
How much does a toilet replacement cost and what affects the price?
Pricing ranges from $450 to $1,200, which includes the new toilet, professional installation, wax ring or sealing system, supply line, and haul-away of the old fixture. Costs vary based on the toilet model selected, any flange or subfloor repairs, and whether additional plumbing or carpentry work is needed.
Can you dispose of my old toilet and recycle parts responsibly?
Yes. We remove your existing toilet, separate recyclable porcelain and metal components when possible, and dispose of the remainder in accordance with Mat-Su Borough waste regulations. This service is included in every replacement package for hassle-free, eco-friendly upgrades.
