FAQs
What are the most common signs that I should replace rather than repair my toilet?
Frequent clogs, cracks in the tank or bowl, persistent leaks around the base, wobbling even after tightening bolts, and noticeably higher water bills from an older 3.5-gallon-per-flush model all indicate that replacement is the smarter investment. Tailored Solutions Plumbing can inspect your current fixture, explain whether a repair is still cost-effective, and provide upgrade options that meet Jefferson City plumbing codes.
Which toilet styles and efficiency ratings do you install for Jefferson City homeowners?
We carry a full range of EPA WaterSense-certified high-efficiency toilets (HETs), dual-flush models, comfort-height ADA-compliant units, space-saving skirted designs, wall-hung systems, and advanced bidet-seat combinations. Our team helps you compare flushing technology (gravity, pressure-assist, vacuum-assist), bowl shapes, rough-in sizes, and finish options to ensure the new toilet fits your bathroom’s layout and aesthetic while maximizing water savings.
How long will my toilet replacement take, and will my home be without water during the process?
A standard like-for-like replacement usually takes 1.5–2 hours. Complex upgrades that involve flange repairs, new supply lines, or flooring adjustments may take half a day. We shut off water only at the toilet’s supply valve, so the rest of your home remains operational. Our plumbers protect surrounding floors, test for leaks, dispose of the old unit, and leave the area clean before restoring water flow.
Can upgrading to a high-efficiency toilet really lower my water bill?
Yes. Older toilets use 3.5–7 gallons per flush, while WaterSense HETs use 1.28 gallons or less—saving up to 13,000 gallons per household per year. At Jefferson City’s average water rates, that translates to roughly $90–$110 in annual savings. Dual-flush models provide even greater control by letting you choose a 0.8-gallon flush for liquid waste.
Do you handle the disposal of my old toilet and any required permits?
Absolutely. Tailored Solutions Plumbing removes and disposes of your old fixture in accordance with Jefferson City sanitation guidelines, recycling porcelain whenever possible. Most residential toilet swaps don’t require a permit, but if local code or homeowners associations do require documentation—especially for structural changes—we’ll secure the permits and schedule the required inspections for you.
How much does a professional toilet upgrade cost in Jefferson City, and what factors affect the price?
Installed prices typically range from $425 for a basic WaterSense two-piece toilet to $1,500+ for luxury one-piece or smart bidet models. Key cost factors include the toilet chosen, any flange or subfloor repairs, supply-line upgrades, shut-off valve replacement, and the need to patch flooring or drywall. We provide fixed, upfront quotes after an on-site assessment so there are no surprises.
