FAQs
What are the signs that I need to replace my toilet?
Common signs that you need to replace your toilet include frequent clogging, cracks in the porcelain, constant running water, inefficiency in terms of water usage, and persistent leaks. If your toilet is over 20 years old, it's also worth considering a replacement for improved performance and water efficiency.
How much does it cost to replace a toilet in Knoxville?
The cost to replace a toilet in Knoxville can vary depending on the type and brand of the toilet, as well as the complexity of the installation. On average, homeowners can expect to spend between $200 and $600, which typically includes the cost of the toilet itself and labor. Higher-end models or complicated installations may increase the cost.
Can I upgrade my toilet to a more water-efficient model?
Yes, upgrading to a more water-efficient model is highly recommended. Modern toilets offer significant water savings with options like dual-flush systems and low-flow designs that use as little as 1.28 gallons per flush compared to older models that may use 3-5 gallons. This upgrade not only helps conserve water but can also lower your utility bills.
Do you offer warranties on toilet replacements and installations?
Yes, we offer warranties on both the toilets we supply and our installation services. The specific terms and duration of the warranty can vary depending on the manufacturer and the type of toilet chosen. Generally, warranties cover defects in materials and workmanship to give you peace of mind.
How long does it take to replace a toilet?
Under normal circumstances, replacing a toilet can be done within 2 to 4 hours. This includes the removal of the old toilet, prepping the installation area, and fitting the new toilet. However, if there are underlying issues such as plumbing repairs or floor damage, additional time may be required.
Can you help me choose the right toilet for my needs?
Absolutely. We can guide you in selecting a toilet that fits your needs, preferences, and budget. Factors to consider include the toilet's shape (round or elongated), height (comfort or standard), flush technology, water efficiency, and additional features like bidet attachments or heated seats.
