FAQs
When is it time to upgrade or replace my toilet in Benton?
Common signs include frequent clogs, cracks in the tank or bowl, constant running water, wobbly base, outdated 3.5-gallon or larger tanks, and rising water bills. If your toilet is 15–20 years old, upgrading to a modern high-efficiency model can reduce water usage by up to 60 % and prevent costly leaks.
What types of new toilets can your Benton plumbing team install?
We install all major styles: standard and compact elongated bowls, comfort-height (ADA) units, water-saving 1.28 gpf or 0.8/1.1 gpf dual-flush models, pressure-assisted toilets for commercial settings, wall-hung/wall-mounted units that free up floor space, one-piece designs for easy cleaning, bidet-seat–ready toilets, and fully integrated smart toilets with heated seats, auto-flush, and night-lights. We help you choose a model that matches your bathroom layout, rough-in measurement, and local plumbing code.
How long does a typical toilet replacement take?
Most standard swaps take 1–2 hours once the plumber is on-site. This includes shutting off the water, draining and removing the old toilet, inspecting the flange, installing a new wax ring or rubber seal, setting and leveling the new unit, reconnecting the supply line, and thorough leak testing. If the flange is damaged or the floor needs repair, add 30–60 minutes. More complex installations like wall-hung carrier systems or smart toilets may require half a day.
Will I need additional plumbing or flooring work during a toilet upgrade?
Often a direct replacement fits the existing 12-inch rough-in with no alterations. However, if you are switching from a standard height to comfort height, round to elongated bowl, or floor-mount to wall-hung, we may need to adjust the drain flange height or relocate the rough-in. We always inspect subfloor integrity; if past leaks have softened the area, we’ll recommend repairs before installing the new toilet to ensure a stable, long-lasting fit.
How much does a toilet upgrade cost in the Benton area?
Pricing varies by model and any required repairs, but a ballpark estimate is: • Basic high-efficiency replacement: $350–$550 installed • Mid-range comfort-height or dual-flush: $500–$850 installed • Premium smart or wall-hung system: $1,200–$3,000+ installed These figures include removal of the old unit, new wax/rubber seal, supply line, labor, and disposal fees. We provide upfront, written quotes so there are no surprises.
Do I need a permit or inspection for a toilet replacement in Benton?
In most cases, replacing a toilet like-for-like is classified as minor maintenance and does not require a city permit. However, if we move the drain line, modify venting, or install a wall-hung carrier system, the Benton building department may require a plumbing permit and inspection. Our licensed plumbers handle all permitting and ensure your upgrade meets Arkansas state code and local ordinances.
