FAQs
How do I know when it’s time to replace my existing toilet rather than just repair it?
Frequent clogs, cracks in the bowl or tank, persistent leaks around the base, or constantly running water are strong indicators that a full replacement is the most cost-effective option. Modern toilets also use as little as 1.28 gallons per flush, so upgrading can lower water bills by up to 30 %, which makes replacement attractive if your current unit is more than 15 years old.
What types of high-efficiency toilets are available for Delano homeowners?
You can choose from WaterSense-certified single-flush models, dual-flush units that use different volumes for liquid and solid waste, pressure-assisted toilets for commercial-grade power, and skirted one-piece designs that are easier to clean. Our plumbers can explain the pros and cons of each type and help you match the right model to your family’s usage and budget.
Do I need a permit to replace a toilet in Delano, CA?
For a like-for-like toilet swap, Delano’s building department usually does not require a permit. However, if the upgrade involves relocating the toilet, altering drain lines, or adding new supply valves, a plumbing permit and city inspection may be necessary. Our team handles all permitting and code compliance on your behalf.
How long does a typical toilet replacement appointment take?
A straightforward replacement where the new toilet fits the existing flange and supply line usually takes 1.5 – 2 hours, including removal of the old unit, inspection of the flange, installation, leak testing, and haul-away. If flange repair, subfloor work, or supply-line rerouting is needed, plan on 3–4 hours.
Can you dispose of my old toilet in an environmentally responsible way?
Yes. We remove the old fixture and transport it to recycling facilities that reclaim porcelain for roadbed aggregate or new tile production. Any metal and plastic components are separated and recycled as well, keeping bulky waste out of local landfills.
What kind of warranty do you offer on toilet upgrades and installations?
All installations include a two-year labor warranty covering leaks, loose mounts, and improper sealing. The toilets we supply come with manufacturer warranties ranging from 5 years on internal parts to lifetime coverage on porcelain, depending on the brand. We register all warranties for you and provide documentation before we leave the job site.
