FAQs
What kinds of plumbing fixtures can Statement Pieces Plumbing replace in Philadelphia homes and businesses?
We replace and install all common and decorative plumbing fixtures, including kitchen and bathroom faucets, sinks, toilets, bidets, shower valves and trim, bathtubs, garbage disposals, ice-maker boxes, outdoor hose bibs, and specialty statement pieces such as wall-mounted and touchless fixtures. If water flows through it, we can remove the old unit, adapt existing supply and drain lines, and set the new fixture in compliance with the Philadelphia Plumbing Code.
How long does a typical plumbing fixture replacement take?
Most single-fixture jobs (e.g., swapping out a standard faucet or toilet) are completed in 1–2 hours once we are on site. Larger or more complex statement fixtures—such as freestanding tubs, thermostatic shower systems, or apron-front sinks—can take 3–5 hours because we often have to reinforce framing, reroute supply lines, or modify drain heights. Before work begins we give you a written timeline so you know exactly what to expect.
Do I need a permit in Philadelphia to replace a faucet, toilet, or other fixture?
For direct, like-for-like replacements that do not require moving supply or drain piping, the City of Philadelphia generally does not require a plumbing permit. However, if we relocate fixtures, alter pipe sizes, penetrate fire-rated assemblies, or install a backflow device, the Department of Licenses & Inspections (L&I) will require a plumbing permit and possible inspection. We handle all permitting and coordinate with L&I so your project stays code-compliant.
Can Statement Pieces Plumbing help me choose water-efficient fixtures that qualify for rebates?
Absolutely. We are WaterSense-partner contractors and stay current on Philadelphia Water Department (PWD) and PECO rebate programs. We can recommend EPA WaterSense-certified toilets and faucets that reduce consumption by 20–30 %, help you complete the rebate paperwork, and provide the proof of installation photos/invoices required to secure your credit or bill discount.
How much does a fixture replacement cost and what affects the price?
Prices vary by fixture type, accessibility, and any piping modifications needed. In Philadelphia, a straightforward faucet or toilet swap typically ranges from $225–$375 labor, plus the cost of the fixture. Statement pieces with custom finishes, smart sensors, or specialty mounts can run $400–$900 in labor because we may need upgraded valves, support brackets, or electrical connections. After an on-site assessment we give a flat, upfront quote—no surprise fees.
Do you provide warranties and post-installation support?
Yes. All labor is covered by our 1-year workmanship warranty, and most manufacturer parts are warranted for 5–10 years, depending on the brand. If you experience drips, finish issues, or performance concerns within the warranty period, call us and we will repair or replace the fixture at no charge. We also offer optional annual maintenance visits to descale aerators, test shut-off valves, and ensure your new statement pieces remain trouble-free.
