FAQs
When should I consider upgrading or replacing my toilet?
You should think about a replacement if your current toilet is over 15–20 years old, needs frequent repairs, uses more than 1.6 gallons per flush, shows cracks or leaks, has recurring clogs, or wobbles at the base. Modern toilets are far more water-efficient and reliable, so an upgrade often lowers water bills and prevents emergency calls.
What high-efficiency or water-saving toilet options do you install?
Our Jefferson City plumbing team installs WaterSense-certified 1.28 gpf toilets, dual-flush models that offer 0.8/1.28 gpf settings, pressure-assisted units for superior flush power, and skirted or one-piece designs that are easier to clean. We’ll review your bathroom layout, water-use goals, and style preferences to recommend the best fixture for your home.
How long does a professional toilet replacement take and what is the process?
A straightforward swap usually takes 1½ to 2 hours. We begin by shutting off the water, draining and removing the old toilet, inspecting and replacing the wax ring and closet flange if needed, setting and leveling the new toilet, reconnecting the supply line, and performing multiple test flushes. We finish by caulking the base, hauling away the old unit, and cleaning the workspace.
Do I need permits or inspections for a toilet replacement in Jefferson City?
Most residential toilet replacements fall under "like-for-like" work and do not require a city permit. However, if we must modify the drain line, relocate the toilet, or upgrade venting, Jefferson City Building & Code Enforcement may require a plumbing permit and inspection. Our licensed plumbers handle all paperwork and ensure the installation meets local and ICC plumbing codes.
What will my new toilet cost and do you provide free estimates?
Costs vary with fixture style, flushing technology, and any needed plumbing repairs. Basic replacement with a quality standard-height toilet can start around $450, while premium comfort-height or smart toilets run higher. We provide no-obligation on-site evaluations that detail fixture price, labor, any flange or supply upgrades, and tax. You’ll receive a clear, itemized quote before work begins.
Do you dispose of my old toilet and is your work guaranteed?
Yes. We remove and responsibly dispose of your old toilet at no extra charge, recycling porcelain whenever possible. All installations are backed by a one-year labor warranty, and most manufacturers offer at least a five-year parts warranty. If you experience any issues related to our work, we will return promptly at no cost to you.
