FAQs

What types of plumbing fixtures can you replace in Blaine homes?

Our licensed plumbers can replace virtually any residential plumbing fixture, including kitchen and bathroom faucets, sinks, toilets, showerheads, tub/shower valves, garbage disposals, dishwashers, icemaker lines, laundry hookups, and outdoor hose bibs. We also handle specialty products such as touchless faucets, low-flow toilets, smart shower systems, and ADA-compliant fixtures. If you have an unusual or discontinued fixture, we’ll source compatible parts or recommend modern replacements that match your décor and plumbing system.

How do I know when a plumbing fixture needs to be replaced rather than repaired?

A fixture should be replaced when it shows persistent leaks, corrosion, cracks in porcelain or metal, reduced water pressure, or visible mineral buildup that cleaning can’t remove. Replacements also make sense if parts are no longer manufactured, repairs would cost more than 50 % of a new fixture, or your water bills have risen due to inefficiency. Homeowners in Blaine often choose replacement to update style, meet newer water-efficiency standards, or increase home resale value.

What is the typical timeline for a standard fixture replacement appointment?

Most single-fixture replacements—such as swapping out a faucet or toilet—take 1–2 hours once we arrive. More complex jobs, like replacing a shower valve behind the wall or relocating supply lines, may require 3–4 hours or a half-day. If multiple fixtures are involved, we’ll provide a detailed schedule, but most full-bathroom change-outs are completed the same day. We offer convenient two-hour arrival windows for Blaine residents and keep you updated by text or phone.

Do you supply the new fixtures or can I provide my own?

You have both options. Many customers prefer that we supply fixtures because we can recommend trusted brands, ensure compatibility with existing plumbing, and pass along our contractor pricing and extended warranties. However, if you’ve already purchased a fixture online or at a local Blaine home center, we’re happy to install it as long as it meets code requirements. We’ll review the specs in advance to confirm fit and performance.

Are permits required for plumbing fixture replacements in Blaine, and do you handle them?

Simple like-for-like fixture swaps—such as replacing a faucet or toilet without altering piping—usually do not require a city permit. However, projects involving changes to the plumbing system (moving drain lines, adding shut-off valves, installing new supply piping, or altering a shower valve inside the wall) do require a permit and inspection by the City of Blaine or Anoka County. Our team handles all permit applications, scheduling, and final inspections, ensuring your project meets state plumbing code and local regulations.

How much does plumbing fixture replacement cost and what factors influence the price?

Costs vary based on fixture type, complexity, and whether new piping or valves are needed. In Blaine, expect these typical price ranges (parts and labor): • Faucet replacement: $225–$450 • Toilet replacement: $300–$550 • Garbage disposal swap: $250–$400 • Shower/tub valve replacement (behind the wall): $600–$1,100 Prices rise when walls or tile must be opened, when fixtures are located in tight spaces, or when upgrades to water-supply lines or drains are necessary. You’ll receive a flat, upfront quote before any work begins, and we back every installation with a one-year labor warranty.
