FAQs
What kinds of modern toilets can Innovative Solutions Plumbing install in Maynardville?
We work with all major manufacturers and can install standard two-piece toilets, sleek one-piece units, compact round-front bowls for small bathrooms, ADA-height models for improved accessibility, and the latest WaterSense-certified high-efficiency toilets (HETs). If you want advanced features such as bidet seats, touch-free flushing, night lights, or built-in deodorizers, we can source and fit those as well.
How long does a typical toilet replacement take?
For a straightforward swap in an easily accessible bathroom, our licensed plumbers can remove the old unit, prep the flange, install a new wax or rubber seal, set the new toilet, connect the supply line, and test for leaks in about 90 minutes. If we are relocating the rough-in, repairing subfloor damage, or upgrading the shut-off valve and supply line, the visit can extend to 3â4 hours. Weâll provide a time estimate during your free on-site assessment.
Will a high-efficiency toilet really save me money on water bills?
Yes. Older toilets use 3.5â7 gallons per flush (gpf), while modern WaterSense models are limited to 1.28 gpf or less. In a household of four, that reduces annual water use by roughly 13,000 gallons, trimming $120â$160 from a typical Maynardville water bill each year. Dual-flush models offer even more savings by using only 0.8 gpf for liquid waste.
Can you take away and recycle my old toilet?
Absolutely. As part of our âleave-nothing-behindâ policy, we remove your old toilet, separate the porcelain from metal and plastic parts, and deliver the porcelain to a local aggregate recycler in Knox County. The tank internals and seat are disposed of or recycled according to EPA guidelines, so you donât have to worry about landfill impact.
Do I need a permit to replace a toilet in Union County?
For a like-for-like replacement that doesnât involve moving drain lines, Union County Building & Codes does not require a homeowner permit. If the project involves relocating the rough-in, altering venting, or extensive subfloor repair, a plumbing permit and inspection may be necessary. Our team handles all permit applications and schedules inspections when they apply, ensuring full compliance with state and local codes.
What does a toilet upgrade cost and what factors affect the price?
A basic replacement with a quality standard-height, two-piece WaterSense toilet typically ranges from $525 to $725, including labor and disposal. Prices increase for one-piece designs, pressure-assist or smart toilets, or if flange repair, subfloor reinforcement, or supply line upgrades are required. We provide a written, no-obligation quote outlining product, labor, and any ancillary costs before work begins, so there are no surprises.
