FAQs
What plumbing fixtures can you replace in my Hillsboro home?
Our licensed plumbers can remove and install a full range of residential fixtures, including kitchen and bathroom faucets, sinks, toilets, garbage disposals, shower heads, tub spouts, shower valves, laundry/utility sinks, outdoor hose bibs, and refrigerator ice-maker lines. If it uses potable water or drains it, chances are we can replace it quickly and to code.
Do I need a permit for fixture replacement in Hillsboro?
Most simple like-for-like swaps—such as replacing an existing faucet or toilet—do not require a City of Hillsboro plumbing permit. However, if the replacement involves relocating supply or drain lines, adding a new fixture, or altering venting, a permit and inspection are required. We handle the permitting process for you when it’s needed, ensuring every project meets Oregon Specialty Plumbing Code requirements.
How long does a typical fixture replacement take?
For straightforward jobs (e.g., swapping out a faucet or toilet), expect 1–2 hours once the plumber is on site. More complex tasks, such as replacing a shower valve hidden in the wall or converting a three-handle tub/shower to a single-handle valve, can take 3–5 hours and may involve minor drywall repair. We’ll provide a realistic time estimate after seeing your existing setup.
Can you supply the new fixtures, or should I purchase them myself?
Either works. Many homeowners buy fixtures they like at a home-improvement store. We’re happy to install customer-supplied products, provided they’re the correct specification. If you prefer a turnkey option, we can source high-quality, trade-grade fixtures from trusted manufacturers, often at better warranties and with parts readily available. Let us know your budget and style preferences, and we’ll present curated options.
What does fixture replacement cost in Hillsboro?
Costs depend on fixture type, accessibility, and any pipe modifications needed. As a ballpark: faucet installations typically range $175–$325, toilet replacements $225–$350, garbage disposals $200–$300 (unit included), and shower valve replacements $450–$750 due to wall access. We provide a flat, upfront quote before work begins, so there are no surprises. Senior and military discounts are available.
How can I tell if a fixture needs replacement instead of repair?
Consider replacement when the fixture is more than 10–15 years old, has persistent leaks despite new cartridges or seals, shows corrosion or cracks, or wastes water (e.g., pre-1994 toilets using 3.5–5 gallons per flush). Upgrading often pays for itself through water-saving technology and reduced repair bills. Our technicians will assess the condition and give honest recommendations—if a simple repair will solve the issue, we’ll tell you.
