FAQs
What does “up-front pricing” mean for my toilet upgrade or replacement in Sequatchie?
Up-front pricing means you know the full, itemized cost of your project before any work starts. After we inspect your existing toilet and plumbing, we give you a written quote that covers labor, the new fixture, removal and disposal of the old toilet, sales tax, and any permits or flange repairs that might be required in Sequatchie. The price on that quote will not change unless you approve additional work in writing, so there are no hidden fees or surprise surcharges when the job is finished.
How can I tell if I should repair my current toilet or replace it?
A repair may be the best option when issues are limited to replaceable parts such as the flapper, fill valve, or handle and the porcelain bowl and tank are still structurally sound. Replacement is usually recommended when you have chronic clogging, cracks in the tank or bowl, visible leaks at the base, high water bills from an older 3.5-gallon-per-flush model, or when the cost of multiple repairs approaches 50% of the price of a new toilet. During our free on-site assessment in Sequatchie we’ll explain both options and their costs so you can make an informed decision.
What kinds of toilets can you install and which is best for my home?
We install a full range of EPA WaterSense high-efficiency toilets, including gravity-flush, pressure-assisted, dual-flush, comfort-height, skirted and wall-hung models. The best choice depends on your plumbing configuration, space constraints, accessibility needs, and style preferences. Our technicians carry catalogs and sample components so you can compare flush performance, water savings (1.28 GPF or less), noise levels, and seat height before selecting the model that fits your bathroom and budget.
How long will a standard toilet replacement take, and will my water be shut off all day?
Most straightforward replacements in Sequatchie take 1.5 to 2 hours from shut-off to cleanup. During that window, the water is off only at the fixture’s supply valve—not to the whole house—so you can still use water elsewhere. Complex jobs that involve flange repairs, subfloor fixes, or relocating the toilet can extend the timeline, but we’ll give you a precise schedule during the quoting process.
Do I need a permit to replace a toilet in Sequatchie, and who handles the paperwork?
Simple like-for-like toilet swaps typically do not require a building permit in Sequatchie County. However, if the job involves moving the drain line, altering venting, or upgrading from standard to pressure-assisted plumbing, the county may require a mechanical/plumbing permit. We stay current on local codes, pull any necessary permits on your behalf, and include those fees in your up-front price so you never have to stand in line at the building department.
What should I do to prepare for my appointment, and what happens to my old toilet?
Please clear a pathway from your door to the bathroom and remove any items stored around the toilet, such as rugs or décor. Shut off valuables to avoid accidental bumps. We’ll lay down drop cloths to protect your floors, drain and remove your old toilet, and haul it away for eco-friendly disposal or recycling. Before we leave, we’ll test for leaks, caulk the base, and review maintenance tips. All workmanship and manufacturer warranties will be documented for your records.
