FAQs
What kinds of plumbing fixtures can you replace in my Sevierville home or business?
Our licensed plumbers can replace virtually any standard or specialty fixture, including kitchen and bathroom faucets, sinks, lavatories, toilets, bidets, shower heads, tub and shower valves, garbage disposals, ice-maker boxes, outdoor hose bibbs, and utility room fixtures. We also handle decorative or high-end brands such as Delta, Kohler, Moen, Grohe, and American Standard, and we can retrofit older homes with modern fixtures without damaging existing finishes. If you have a unique or imported fixture, send us a photo and model number and we’ll confirm compatibility before the appointment.
How long does a typical fixture replacement take, and will you finish in one visit?
Most straightforward replacements—like swapping a faucet or toilet with a new model in the same location—take 60-90 minutes. More involved jobs, such as installing a new shower valve behind tile or relocating supply lines, can run 2–4 hours. We stock the most commonly used water supply lines, angle stops, wax rings, and caulk on our trucks so we can complete nearly 90 % of jobs in a single visit. If the fixture is special order or we discover hidden damage (rotted subfloor, corroded piping, etc.), we’ll explain the issue, give you updated timing, and schedule a quick return visit once parts arrive.
Do I need a permit or inspection to replace a plumbing fixture in Sevierville?
For a like-for-like swap—e.g., removing an old faucet and installing a new faucet in the same holes—Sevierville’s Building & Codes Department typically does not require a permit. However, if the work changes the piping layout, venting, drainage, or adds an additional fixture, the Tennessee Uniform Plumbing Code does require a permit and, in most cases, an inspection. Our team stays current with local regulations, pulls any necessary permits on your behalf, and schedules required inspections, so you remain 100 % code-compliant and avoid potential fines or delays when you sell your property.
What does a fixture replacement usually cost, and how is pricing determined?
Pricing depends on fixture type, accessibility, and any repairs needed. As a general guide, labor to replace a standard lavatory faucet runs $200–$350, a kitchen faucet $250–$450, and a toilet $350–$700. The fixture itself can be supplied by you or purchased through us at contractor pricing. Every job receives an on-site written estimate before work begins, and the price will not change unless we mutually agree to added scope (for example, replacing shut-off valves or repairing water-damaged flooring revealed after removal). We do not charge trip fees within Sevierville city limits and offer senior and military discounts.
Can you install water-saving or ADA-compliant fixtures to lower my utility bills or improve accessibility?
Absolutely. We stock EPA WaterSense-certified faucets, shower heads, and 1.28 gpf high-efficiency toilets that can cut indoor water use by up to 30 %. Sevierville Water Department occasionally offers bill credits or rebates on qualifying fixtures, and we’ll fill out the paperwork for you. For customers with mobility challenges, we install ADA-height toilets, lever-handle faucets, grab bars, and roll-in shower fixtures that meet current accessibility standards. Upgrading to these products not only lowers monthly costs but also increases property value and comfort.
What kind of warranty and post-service support do you provide?
All fixture replacement work is backed by our comprehensive one-year labor warranty—if anything we install leaks or malfunctions due to workmanship within 12 months, we fix it at no charge. Most manufacturers offer additional 5- to lifetime warranties on the fixtures themselves; we register those warranties on your behalf whenever possible. After the job, you’ll receive a digital invoice with photos, part numbers, and care instructions. Should any issue arise, our Sevierville office answers live 24/7, and we prioritize warranty calls with service within 24 hours.
