FAQs
Why should I consider upgrading my old toilet?
Modern toilets use as little as 1.28 gallons per flush (GPF) compared to the 3.5–7 GPF of many older models, which can cut indoor water use by up to 30 %. They also feature quieter flushing technology, powerful bowl-cleaning designs, sleeker profiles that free up bathroom space, and comfort-height seating that’s easier on the knees and back. Upgrading can lower utility bills, improve hygiene, increase property value, and give your bathroom a fresh, contemporary look.
How can I tell whether my toilet needs to be repaired or completely replaced?
If you see hairline cracks in the porcelain, experience frequent clogs or overflows, notice pooling water at the base, or hear the tank refilling constantly, replacement is usually the safest long-term solution. Minor issues like a worn flapper, loose handle, or running fill valve often warrant a simple repair. Our technicians perform a 15-point inspection—including leak detection, flush performance, and structural integrity checks—so you’ll get an honest recommendation before any work begins.
What high-efficiency or specialty toilet options do you install in the Dayton area?
We stock and install single-flush and dual-flush WaterSense-certified toilets, pressure-assisted models for commercial or high-traffic bathrooms, one-piece low-profile units for easy cleaning, skirted designs for a sleek aesthetic, and smart toilets with bidet functions, heated seats, and night lights. All meet Ohio Plumbing Code requirements and are backed by manufacturer warranties ranging from five years to lifetime coverage, depending on the model.
What does the replacement process look like with Modern Upgrades Plumbing?
1) Consultation—We discuss style, rough-in measurement, water-usage goals, and budget. 2) Selection—You choose from curated brands such as Kohler, Toto, and American Standard; same-day pickup is available on most units. 3) Installation Day—We protect flooring, drain and remove the old toilet, inspect the flange, install a new wax ring or wax-free seal, set and level the toilet, connect a braided stainless supply line, and test for leaks. 4) Cleanup & Haul-Away—Your old toilet is recycled or disposed of per Dayton regulations. Most replacements take 2–3 hours start to finish.
Do you handle permits and disposal of my old toilet?
Yes. While toilet swaps rarely require a permit in Dayton residential properties, any re-positioning that alters plumbing lines or involves new rough-ins does. Our office secures the necessary permits, schedules inspections when required, and provides documentation for your records. We also haul away the old fixture at no extra charge and recycle porcelain whenever possible to keep waste out of local landfills.
What will a toilet upgrade cost, and are rebates available?
Installation of a standard high-efficiency toilet typically ranges from $475 to $775 including the fixture, parts, labor, and disposal. Premium smart toilets or major flange repairs can raise costs to $1,200–$2,000. Montgomery County customers may qualify for $50–$100 water-saving rebates through local utility programs; we supply the paperwork and proof-of-purchase. Financing options with 0 % APR for six months are available on purchases over $600 to help spread out the investment.
