FAQs
What types of plumbing fixtures can you replace or install in Whitwell homes?
Our licensed plumbers can remove, supply, and install virtually any residential plumbing fixture, including kitchen faucets, bathroom sink faucets, shower and tub valves, toilets, bidets, utility sinks, garbage disposals, dishwashers, ice-maker lines, and outdoor hose bibs. If you have a specialty or high-end fixture, just let us know the make and model in advance so we can have the proper parts and manufacturer specifications on hand.
How does your precise installation process ensure leak-free performance?
Every job begins with a thorough inspection of the existing supply and drain lines. We shut off water at the source, drain residual pressure, and protect flooring with drop cloths. Old fixtures are removed without damaging surrounding tile or countertops. We then prep the mounting surfaces, replace old shut-off valves if necessary, and use only manufacturer-approved gaskets, supply lines, and torque settings. All threaded joints receive the correct sealant (Teflon tape or pipe dope), and compression fittings are tightened to spec with a calibrated torque wrench. Finally, we pressure-test the new fixture for 10–15 minutes, check for hidden seepage with a moisture meter, and clean the work area before we leave.
Do I need to supply the new faucets, toilets, or sinks, or can you provide them?
You can do either. Many customers pick out fixtures to match their décor, and we’re happy to install them. If you prefer a turnkey service, we can source fixtures from trusted brands such as Moen, Delta, Kohler, and American Standard. We’ll present you with style and finish options, order the products, transport them to your home, and include them on a single, itemized invoice—saving you time and ensuring compatibility with your existing plumbing.
How much does a typical fixture replacement cost in Whitwell, and what factors affect pricing?
Most single-fixture replacements (e.g., kitchen faucet or toilet swap) range from $175 to $450 for labor, plus the price of the fixture itself. Costs can rise if: • the shut-off valves or supply lines must be relocated, • corrosion requires pipe repairs, • cabinetry or countertops need modification, or • the fixture is wall-mounted or a smart/voice-activated model. We provide a flat-rate quote after an on-site evaluation, so you’ll know the exact total before any work begins.
Will I need a permit or inspection for my fixture replacement?
In the City of Whitwell and Marion County, simple like-for-like fixture swaps (e.g., replacing a toilet with a new toilet) generally do not require a permit. However, if we must alter drain piping, move supply lines inside the wall, or install a new fixture where none existed before, the local building department may require a plumbing permit and inspection. We stay current with municipal codes and can secure any necessary permits on your behalf, ensuring full compliance.
What warranties or guarantees do you offer on your fixture installation work?
All labor is warrantied for a full 12 months against leaks, installation defects, and workmanship issues. If a problem arises within that period, we return at no charge to diagnose and correct it. Most fixtures also carry manufacturer warranties—typically 1–5 years for standard products and lifetime on select premium faucets—which we help you register at the time of installation. Our goal is 100% satisfaction, so we stand behind both our work and the products we install.
