FAQs
What types of plumbing fixtures can Lasting Solutions Plumbing replace in Newcomb homes?
Our licensed plumbers can replace a full range of residential fixtures, including kitchen and bathroom taps, shower heads and mixers, toilets, bidets, vanities, laundry troughs, utility sinks, garbage disposals, outdoor hose bibs, and even specialty items like water-saving dual-flush toilets or touch-free faucets. If water flows through it, we have the training, parts, and tools to install it safely and in compliance with Victorian plumbing regulations.
How do I know whether a plumbing fixture needs replacement instead of repair?
Frequent leaks, visible corrosion, cracked porcelain, constantly running toilets, weak or inconsistent water pressure, and outdated or discontinued models are all signs that replacement may be more cost-effective than repeated repairs. During our on-site assessment, we test the fixture, inspect supply lines and shut-off valves, and weigh the repair cost against the price of a new, water-efficient model. We’ll give you an honest recommendation so you can make an informed decision.
How long does a typical fixture replacement take?
Most single-fixture swaps—such as a basin mixer or a standard close-coupled toilet—are completed within 1–2 hours once we’re on site. More complex jobs, like relocating plumbing connections, upgrading to wall-hung vanities, or addressing hidden water damage, may take half a day or longer. We’ll provide a time estimate up front and keep you informed if unforeseen issues arise (for example, corroded pipe threads behind the wall).
Can I supply my own fixtures, or does Lasting Solutions Plumbing provide them?
Both options are available. Many clients choose from the trusted brands we stock because they come with full manufacturer warranties and are sized to Australian Standards. If you already have a fixture in mind or have purchased one during a renovation sale, we’re happy to install it—provided it meets local compliance requirements. We’ll review the product specs before the appointment to ensure compatibility with your existing plumbing.
Are your fixture replacements covered by warranty?
Yes. All labour performed by Lasting Solutions Plumbing is backed by a 6-year workmanship warranty in accordance with the Victorian Building Authority. Fixtures that we supply carry the manufacturer’s parts warranty—typically 1–10 years depending on the brand and component (ceramic cartridge, finish, etc.). We’ll register any required warranty paperwork on your behalf and explain the correct care procedures to maintain coverage.
How much does plumbing-fixture replacement cost in Newcomb, and what factors affect the price?
Simple replacements such as a standard mixer tap generally range from $180–$350 installed, while dual-flush toilet suites start around $450-$650 supplied and fitted. Pricing can increase when: (1) the old fixture is hard-to-access or seized by corrosion, (2) shut-off valves or supply lines need upgrading, (3) tiling or cabinetry modifications are required, (4) premium designer fixtures are selected, or (5) emergency after-hours service is needed. We provide fixed, written quotes before commencing work so there are no surprises.
