FAQs
What are the most common signs that it’s time to upgrade or replace my toilet?
Cracked porcelain, recurring leaks around the base, constant running water, frequent clogs, wobbling or rocking when you sit, and noticeably higher water bills are all indications that a toilet is nearing the end of its service life. If repairs are becoming more frequent or costly, replacing the unit is typically the most economical long-term option.
How much does a professional toilet replacement cost in Pikeville?
Most standard replacements in Pikeville range from $350–$900 in total. The spread depends on the style of toilet you choose (standard, comfort-height, dual-flush, wall-hung, etc.), any flange or floor repairs needed, and removal/disposal fees for the old unit. We provide a free on-site evaluation and a written quote so you know the exact investment before work begins.
Will a high-efficiency or dual-flush toilet really save me money on water bills?
Yes. Older toilets use 3–5 gallons per flush, while modern WaterSense-certified models use as little as 1.28 gallons. Dual-flush units let you choose an even lower volume for liquid waste. Households can save up to 13,000 gallons of water per year—often cutting annual water costs by 15–25%—which means the fixture can pay for itself in utility savings in just a few years.
What is the step-by-step process your licensed plumbers follow for a toilet replacement?
1) Shut off the water and drain the old toilet. 2) Disconnect the supply line and remove the tank and bowl. 3) Inspect and, if needed, repair or replace the closet flange and install a new wax or rubber seal. 4) Set and level the new toilet, tightening bolts to the correct torque. 5) Reconnect the water supply, test for leaks, and adjust flush and fill levels. 6) Haul away and environmentally dispose of the old fixture. The entire visit typically takes 2–3 hours.
Do I need a permit to replace a toilet in Pikeville, and do you handle that for me?
For a straight “swap-out” in the same location, Pikeville’s building department does not require a permit. If the project involves moving the toilet or altering the drain line, a plumbing permit may be needed. Our office confirms all local code requirements in advance and, when necessary, secures the permit and schedules any required inspections for you.
What kind of warranty or guarantee comes with my new toilet and your labor?
Most manufacturers offer a limited parts warranty of 1–10 years, depending on the model. Our company adds a full one-year labor warranty covering workmanship, plus a 100% satisfaction guarantee—if any installation issue arises within that period, we correct it at no cost. Extended protection plans are also available for customers who want longer coverage.
