FAQs
When should I consider replacing my toilet instead of repairing it?
A replacement is usually recommended when the porcelain is cracked, the toilet is more than 20 years old, you are experiencing frequent clogs or leaks, or you want to upgrade to a high-efficiency model that uses less water. In Speedwell, older 3.5–7 gpf toilets can be swapped for modern 1.28 gpf units that meet current Tennessee plumbing codes and can cut water use by up to 60 %.
What does your professional toilet replacement service in Speedwell include?
Our service covers every step: (1) an on-site assessment to confirm rough-in size and flange condition, (2) safe shut-off and draining of the existing toilet, (3) removal and eco-friendly disposal of the old unit, (4) inspection and, if needed, replacement of the wax ring, closet bolts, and supply line, (5) precise installation and anchoring of the new toilet, (6) leak testing and bowl-tank alignment, and (7) a final clean-up and customer walk-through. We also handle any permit requirements specific to Claiborne County.
How long will a toilet replacement take and will my water be shut off for the whole time?
Most standard replacements take 90 minutes to 2 hours. Your home’s main water supply is usually off for only 15–20 minutes while the old toilet is disconnected and the new shut-off valve is installed. We schedule appointments in convenient two-hour arrival windows so you always know when to expect our Speedwell plumbers.
Can you provide and install water-saving or comfort-height toilets?
Yes. We stock EPA WaterSense-certified models from Kohler, American Standard, and Toto, including dual-flush and pressure-assist designs. Comfort-height bowls (about 17–19 inches seat height) are available for easier access, especially for seniors or anyone with mobility challenges. We’ll go over style, color, and budget options, deliver the unit to your home, and register the manufacturer warranty on your behalf.
Do I need to do any preparation before the plumber arrives?
Just clear a path from the entry door to the bathroom and remove personal items from around the toilet area. Shut off electric bidet seats or night-lights if present. Our team brings floor protectors, drop cloths, and shoe covers, so there’s no need to protect your flooring yourself. If the bathroom is on an upper level, please ensure pets are secured to prevent accidents.
What other plumbing fixtures can you replace and do you offer package discounts?
In addition to toilets, we replace faucets, shower valves, bathtubs, garbage disposals, dishwashers, and laundry sinks. Many Speedwell homeowners bundle fixture upgrades during a remodel or when switching to stainless braided supply lines throughout the house. We offer multi-fixture discounts and can quote a flat project price that covers all labor, haul-away, and disposal fees.
