FAQs
How do I know when it’s time to replace my toilet instead of repairing it?
Frequent clogs, cracks in the bowl or tank, persistent leaks around the base, and rising water bills from inefficient older models are strong indicators it’s time for a replacement. If repairs are becoming more frequent or exceed half the cost of a new, efficient unit, upgrading is usually the smarter long-term choice.
What types of high-efficiency toilets do you install in Lynchburg homes?
We offer a range of EPA WaterSense-certified options, including single-flush models (1.28 gpf), dual-flush toilets (0.8 gpf for liquids / 1.28 gpf for solids), pressure-assisted units for superior flushing power, and comfort-height designs that meet ADA guidelines. Our technicians will assess your plumbing setup and recommend the best style for performance, water savings, and comfort.
Will a new toilet really lower my water bill?
Absolutely. Older toilets often use 3.5–7 gallons per flush, while current high-efficiency models use 1.28 gallons or less. For a family of four averaging 20 flushes per day, that can save up to 13,000 gallons of water annually—translating to noticeable savings on your monthly Lynchburg water utility bill.
How long does a professional toilet replacement take from start to finish?
Most standard replacements are completed within two to three hours, including removal of the old unit, inspection of the flange and supply line, installation of the new toilet, and a full functionality check. If subfloor repairs or flange replacements are needed, the project can extend to half a day, but we’ll provide a clear timeline before work begins.
Do I need a permit to replace a toilet in Lynchburg, VA?
Toilet swaps that do not alter the plumbing layout generally do not require a city permit. However, if we must relocate the drain, modify vent lines, or perform structural changes, Lynchburg code may require permitting. We handle all code compliance and will inform you up front if any permits or inspections are needed.
What warranty and post-installation support do you offer?
All new toilets we install come with the manufacturer’s warranty—typically 1 year on parts, 5–10 years on the porcelain. Our craftsmanship is backed by a separate one-year labor warranty, covering installation-related leaks, loose fittings, or other workmanship issues. We also provide a free follow-up check within 30 days to ensure optimal performance and answer any maintenance questions.
