FAQs
What types of plumbing fixtures can your Harriman technicians replace?
Our licensed plumbers can replace virtually any residential or light-commercial fixture, including faucets, sinks, toilets, tubs, shower valves, garbage disposals, hose bibs, and ice-maker or dishwasher supply lines. Whether you need a simple bathroom faucet swap or a complete kitchen fixture upgrade, we have the expertise and the specialized tools to handle it safely and to code.
How can I tell if a fixture should be replaced rather than repaired?
Replacement is usually recommended when the fixture is over 10–15 years old, shows visible corrosion or cracks, leaks persist after repairs, replacement parts are obsolete, or your water bills have risen due to inefficiency. Our technician will inspect the fixture, explain the condition of internal seals and cartridges, and give you an honest repair-vs-replace cost comparison so you can make an informed decision.
Which brands and models do you recommend for new fixtures?
We work with trusted brands such as Moen, Delta, Kohler, American Standard, Toto, and InSinkErator because they offer solid warranties, ready availability of replacement parts, and proven reliability in Harriman’s water conditions. We’ll suggest models that balance your budget, style preferences, flow-rate requirements, and ADA or WaterSense certifications. If you already have a preferred brand, we’re happy to install it as long as it meets local code.
How long will a typical plumbing fixture replacement take?
Most single-fixture replacements (e.g., a kitchen faucet or toilet) are completed in 1–2 hours, assuming shut-off valves are functional and no hidden damage is found. More complex jobs—such as shower valve retrofits that require wall access—may take 3–4 hours or be scheduled over two visits to allow for tile work. Before starting, we’ll provide a realistic time estimate and keep you informed if unforeseen issues arise.
Do I need to purchase the new fixture myself?
Not necessarily. You’re welcome to buy a fixture on your own, but many customers prefer us to source it because we can obtain professional-grade models at wholesale pricing and ensure all necessary parts (mounting kits, supply lines, wax rings, etc.) are included. Whatever route you choose, we’ll verify compatibility with your existing plumbing and confirm that the fixture meets code requirements before installation.
Are permits required for fixture replacements in Harriman, and do you handle the paperwork?
Simple like-for-like fixture swaps (faucet, toilet, disposal) generally do not require a city permit. However, replacements that involve altering drain or supply lines, adding backflow prevention, or relocating a fixture may trigger permit and inspection requirements under the International Plumbing Code adopted by Harriman and Roane County. Our team stays current with local ordinances; if a permit is needed, we’ll prepare the application, schedule inspections, and include any associated fees in your upfront quote.
