FAQs
When should I consider upgrading my toilet instead of repairing it?
You should think about a full replacement when you’re facing recurring clogs, constant running, cracks in the bowl or tank, weak flushing performance, or rising water bills. Toilets manufactured before 1994 can use more than twice the water of today’s high-efficiency models, so an upgrade in New Tazewell often pays for itself through savings and fewer repair calls.
What kinds of high-efficiency toilets do you install and how do I choose the right one?
We offer WaterSense-certified single-flush, dual-flush, pressure-assisted, and skirted one-piece models from leading brands such as Kohler, Toto, and American Standard. Selection depends on your budget, preferred bowl height (standard or comfort height), rough-in size, style, and household water-use goals. During a free on-site consultation, our licensed plumber measures your existing rough-in, reviews water pressure, and helps you compare flush ratings and features so you end up with the perfect fit for your bathroom and lifestyle.
How long does a professional toilet replacement take?
For most homes in New Tazewell, a straightforward swap—removing the old toilet, installing a new shut-off valve if needed, securing the new bowl with a wax or wax-free seal, leveling, and testing—takes about two to three hours. If we discover flange damage, corroded supply lines, or subfloor rot, we can usually complete those repairs the same day but it may add an hour or two to the project. We always provide an updated timeline before we begin work.
Will upgrading my toilet really lower my water bill?
Yes. Older toilets can use 3.5 to 7 gallons per flush (gpf). Modern high-efficiency toilets use 1.28 gpf or less, and dual-flush models let you choose 0.8 gpf for liquid waste. For a family of four flushing five times per person per day, switching from a 3.5 gpf unit to a 1.28 gpf model can save roughly 12,000 gallons per year—about $100–$150 annually on New Tazewell utility rates. Over the lifetime of the toilet, that’s thousands of dollars in savings.
Do you handle disposal of my old toilet and make sure the installation meets Tennessee plumbing codes?
Absolutely. We remove and haul away your old fixture for environmentally responsible disposal or recycling, and we pull any required local permits. Our plumbers are licensed in Tennessee and follow current IPC and state amendments, including the mandated 1.28 gpf maximum and proper closet flange height. We also perform a final leak and pressure test so you can be confident your new installation is 100 % code-compliant.
What does a toilet upgrade cost and do you offer warranties or financing?
Pricing in New Tazewell typically ranges from $425 for a basic two-piece elongated model installed, up to $1,600 + for premium pressure-assisted or bidet-seat packages. Every installation includes a new supply line, wax seal, and disposal of the old unit. We back our labor with a two-year workmanship warranty and register any manufacturer’s warranties on your behalf—usually five to ten years on porcelain and mechanical parts. Interest-free financing for up to 12 months is available on approved credit to make upgrading easier on your budget.
