FAQs
What kinds of plumbing fixtures can Modern Techniques Plumbing replace in my Oakdale home?
We replace virtually every residential and light-commercial fixture, including kitchen and bathroom faucets, sinks, toilets, garbage disposals, shower and tub valves, water-saving showerheads, hose bibbs, laundry-room fixtures, and utility sinks. If it carries fresh water in or sends wastewater out, we can remove the old unit and install a new, high-efficiency model that meets current Minnesota plumbing codes.
How do your “modern techniques” improve the fixture-replacement process?
Our technicians use digital pipe mapping, press-connect fittings, and inspection cameras to locate shut-offs and verify pipe integrity before work begins. These tools let us cut, join, and pressure-test lines with fewer wall openings, shorter water shut-offs, and cleaner installations. The result is a faster job, reduced risk of leaks, and minimal disruption to your home.
Can you recommend and install eco-friendly or water-saving fixtures?
Absolutely. We carry WaterSense-certified faucets, dual-flush and 1.28-gpf toilets, low-flow showerheads, and touchless faucets that reduce both water usage and the spread of germs. During the estimate, we’ll calculate potential water and energy savings and help you select fixtures that qualify for local rebates from Oakdale and Xcel Energy.
How long does a typical plumbing fixture replacement take?
Simple swaps like a faucet or showerhead usually take 1–2 hours. Toilet replacements average 2–3 hours, and multi-fixture projects (e.g., full bathroom refresh) can be completed in one day. We carry common parts on our trucks, so there’s rarely a need for return visits. Before starting, we give you an accurate time window and keep you updated throughout the job.
Will you handle permits and ensure code compliance for my project?
Yes. For fixture replacements that require city permits—such as relocating a toilet or installing a new shower valve—we prepare and submit all paperwork to the Oakdale Building Department, schedule inspections, and guarantee the work will pass the first time. Our plumbers are licensed by the State of Minnesota and stay current on the latest code updates.
What does your pricing include, and are there any hidden costs?
Our upfront, flat-rate price covers removal and disposal of the old fixture, supply of standard installation materials (gaskets, supply lines, shut-off valves, brackets), labor, cleanup, and a two-year workmanship warranty. You only pay extra for specialty fixtures you choose or for unforeseen issues such as corroded supply piping discovered after walls are opened—but we discuss and authorize any change orders with you before proceeding.
