FAQs
Why should I consider upgrading my toilet instead of continually repairing it?
Older toilets use up to 5–7 gallons per flush, are prone to cracks and leaks, and often require recurring flapper, fill-valve, or seal repairs. Modern high-efficiency models use as little as 1.28 gallons, deliver stronger flush power, and come with glazed trapways that resist clogging. An upgrade can cut household water consumption by 20–30 %, lower your Cookeville Utility District bill, and eliminate the hassle and cost of repeat service calls.
What kinds of high-efficiency toilets do you install in Cookeville?
Our plumbers install WaterSense-certified single-flush, dual-flush, pressure-assisted, and chair-height models from leading brands such as Kohler, Toto, American Standard, and Gerber. We also offer skirted and wall-hung options for easy cleaning and ADA compliance. During the in-home consultation we measure the rough-in distance, assess floor type, and present models that fit your space, style, and budget.
How long does it take to replace a toilet and will my water be shut off the whole time?
A standard replacement usually takes 90 minutes to two hours. We shut off the supply valve only to the fixture being replaced; the rest of your home’s water remains on. After draining and removing the old toilet, we inspect the flange, replace the wax or rubber seal, set and level the new unit, reconnect the line, and perform a multi-point leak test before restoring full pressure.
Will you haul away my old toilet and is there an extra charge?
Yes. Our Cookeville team removes the old fixture, recycles applicable porcelain or metal parts, and disposes of non-recyclable pieces in accordance with Putnam County sanitation regulations. Haul-away is included in our up-front quote, so you won’t see a surprise fee on your final invoice.
What is the typical cost of a toilet upgrade—including installation—in the Cookeville area?
Pricing depends on the model you choose and any flange or flooring repairs needed. Standard two-piece high-efficiency toilets start around $450 installed, while premium one-piece or wall-hung units can range from $750 to $1,400. We provide a written, no-obligation estimate that covers the new toilet, installation labor, disposal, wax seal, supply line, and tax—no hidden surcharges.
Do you provide warranties or maintenance plans for new toilet installations?
Every toilet we install comes with the manufacturer’s limited parts warranty (typically 1–10 years) plus our own 12-month labor guarantee, covering any installation-related issues at no cost. Clients may also enroll in our annual plumbing maintenance plan, which includes a whole-home water pressure check, dye-test for silent toilet leaks, and 15 % off future repairs for one low yearly fee.
