FAQs
What types of plumbing fixtures can your licensed plumbers replace in Riceville?
Our team can replace virtually any residential or light-commercial plumbing fixture, including faucets, sinks, toilets, showerheads, tubs, garbage disposals, hose bibbs, and laundry/utility sinks. We also handle specialty items such as low-flow and touchless faucets, comfort-height toilets, and ADA-compliant fixtures.
Do I really need a licensed plumber for a simple fixture replacement?
While some fixtures look easy to swap out, many replacements involve shut-off valve inspections, water-pressure balancing, proper P-trap alignment, and compliance with Tennessee plumbing code. Using a licensed plumber ensures the installation is leak-free, up to code, and keeps your manufacturerâs warranty intact. It also protects you from potential water damage or costly do-overs.
How can I tell whether my existing fixture should be repaired or fully replaced?
A fixture generally needs replacement when it shows persistent leaks despite new cartridges or seals, has corroded finishes, contains cracked porcelain, wastes water (high GPM/GPF), or lacks readily available parts. During our visit weâll inspect the fixture, review its age and efficiency, and give you an honest recommendationârepair if practical, replacement if more cost-effective long term.
How long does a typical plumbing fixture replacement take?
Most single-fixture jobs (e.g., faucet or toilet) are completed in 1â2 hours. Complex projects such as replacing a double vanity, a tub/shower valve in a tiled wall, or multiple fixtures throughout a home may take half a day to a full day. Weâll provide a realistic timeline after the on-site assessment so you can plan accordingly.
Will upgrading my fixtures really save water and lower my utility bills?
Yes. Modern EPA WaterSense-certified faucets and showerheads can cut water use by up to 30 %, and high-efficiency toilets can reduce flush volume from the old 3.5 gallons to 1.28 gallons or less. Over a year, a family of four in Riceville can save thousands of gallons of water and see noticeable reductions on water and energy bills (less hot-water demand).
What should I expect in terms of cost and warranties for fixture replacements?
Pricing depends on fixture type, accessibility, and any necessary valve or drain upgrades. Simple faucet swaps start around $125â$175 (labor only), while toilet replacements typically range from $180â$300. We give flat-rate quotes up front. All labor is warrantied for one year, and many manufacturer fixtures carry 5-to-lifetime limited warranties. We register those warranties for you and provide all documentation after the job is complete.
