FAQs

How do I know if it’s time to replace my existing toilet instead of repairing it?

We generally recommend replacement when the porcelain is cracked, the toilet was made before 1994 (pre-1.6 gpf models), or when repeated repairs—such as flapper, fill-valve, or seal failures—start costing more than half the price of a new unit. Persistent clogs, wobbling caused by a deteriorated flange, or visible leaks around the base are also strong indicators that a new, more efficient toilet will be the most economical long-term solution.

What toilet models or features do you recommend for water efficiency in Duff?

For Duff’s water-conservation guidelines we suggest EPA WaterSense-certified toilets that use 1.28 gpf or less. Dual-flush units (approx. 0.8 gpf for liquid waste, 1.28 gpf for solid) are popular, as are pressure-assisted models that clear the bowl with less water. We work with leading brands such as Toto, Kohler, and American Standard, and we can install skirted bowls, concealed-trapway designs, or compact elongated bowls to save space without sacrificing performance.

How long does a typical toilet replacement appointment take?

Most standard replacements take 1.5–2.5 hours from shut-off to final cleanup. That timeframe includes draining and removing the old unit, inspecting and, if necessary, replacing the wax ring or flange, installing the new toilet, leak-testing, and hauling away debris. Complex projects—such as flange repairs, relocation of the water supply, or installation of bidet seats—can add an additional hour or two.

Will you dispose of my old toilet and handle permitting in Duff?

Yes. Our quote includes environmentally responsible disposal or recycling of your old porcelain fixture at an approved facility. If the upgrade involves moving the toilet or altering drain lines, we’ll secure the required City of Duff plumbing permit and schedule any needed inspections. All documentation will be provided to you for your records.

Can you upgrade my existing toilet to a higher ADA-compliant height?

Absolutely. Comfort-height (ADA) toilets measure 17–19 inches from floor to seat top, making them easier for seniors, taller individuals, and people with mobility challenges. We can replace just the bowl on certain two-piece models or install a complete new unit that meets ADA/ICC requirements. We’ll also confirm that grab-bar placement and clear floor space meet accessibility codes if you’re remodeling a larger bathroom.

How much does a standard toilet replacement cost and what factors affect price?

In Duff, a basic like-for-like replacement typically ranges from $475–$725, including labor, disposal, a new wax ring, supply line, and standard WaterSense toilet. Costs rise for premium features (dual-flush or pressure-assist), skirted or one-piece designs, bidet seat wiring, or subfloor repairs. We provide a fixed, written quote after an on-site inspection so there are no surprises.
