FAQs
What kinds of plumbing fixtures can you replace in McDonald homes or businesses?
Our licensed plumbers can remove and install virtually any water-using fixture, including faucets, sinks, shower valves, tubs, toilets, garbage disposals, outdoor hose bibs, and laundry or utility sinks. We also handle specialty items such as touchless faucets, bidet seats, and pot-fillers. Whether the fixture is located in a kitchen, bathroom, bar area, or utility room, we can supply and fit a replacement that matches your style, budget, and water-efficiency goals.
How can I tell if a fixture should be repaired or completely replaced?
Several warning signs point to replacement rather than repair: recurring leaks even after gasket or cartridge changes, visible corrosion or pitting on metal surfaces, cracked porcelain or enamel, outdated fixtures that no longer meet code, mineral buildup that restricts flow, and hard-to-find parts for older models. If the cost of repeated repairs is approaching 50 % of the price of a new fixture—or if you’re planning a remodel—it is usually more cost-effective to replace the unit outright.
What is the typical timeline for a plumbing fixture replacement visit?
For most single-fixture jobs (toilet, faucet, or disposal), we schedule a two-to-three-hour service window. Our crew will shut off the local water supply, remove the old fixture, inspect and prep the supply lines or drain connections, set the new fixture, test for leaks, and haul away the old unit. Replacing multiple fixtures or installing a tub/shower valve that requires wall access can extend the visit to a half or full day. We strive to accommodate same-week appointments for customers in the McDonald area.
Do you offer warranties on the new fixtures and your workmanship?
Yes. Most manufacturers provide a limited lifetime warranty on faucets and five- to ten-year coverage on toilets and disposals when installed by a licensed plumber. In addition, we back our labor with a one-year workmanship guarantee. If any leak, installation defect, or performance issue arises within that period, we will return at no charge to make it right.
Can you recommend water-efficient fixtures that meet local McDonald/Allegheny County codes?
Absolutely. We keep current with the International Plumbing Code and Pennsylvania’s adoption of federal WaterSense standards. We can suggest low-flow toilets (1.28 gpf or less), bathroom faucets that flow at 1.2 gpm, and showerheads limited to 2.0 gpm, all without sacrificing comfort or pressure. Our team will handle the permit process if required and provide the documentation you need for any local rebates on high-efficiency fixtures.
What does plumbing fixture replacement cost in McDonald and what factors influence the price?
A straightforward swap of a customer-supplied faucet or toilet typically ranges from $150 to $350 in labor. When we supply the new fixture, package pricing starts around $325 for standard models and can exceed $1,200 for luxury tubs or electronic bidet toilets. Factors that influence cost include fixture price, accessibility, any need to upgrade shut-off valves or supply lines, wall or tile repair, and permit fees for larger projects. We provide a fixed, written estimate before any work begins so you know the exact investment.
