FAQs
When should I replace a plumbing fixture instead of repairing it?
A fixture is usually ready for replacement when it shows persistent leaks, visible corrosion, cracking porcelain, calcium buildup that won’t clean off, or if internal parts are no longer manufactured. In Riceville’s hard-water environment, faucets and toilets often reach that point after 10–15 years. Replacing instead of repairing can save money on repeated service calls and lower your water bill by up to 30% with newer, low-flow models.
What kinds of fixtures can your Riceville team replace?
Our licensed plumbers handle virtually every residential and light-commercial fixture, including kitchen and bath faucets, shower valves and heads, toilets, bidets, pedestal and drop-in sinks, garbage disposals, ice-maker and dishwasher supply lines, outdoor hose bibbs, and laundry utility sinks. We also upgrade to touchless, ADA-compliant, or water-saving models on request.
How long does a typical fixture replacement take?
Most single-fixture jobs—such as swapping out a faucet or toilet—are completed in 1–2 hours once we’re on site. More involved projects, like converting a two-handle shower to a pressure-balanced single-handle valve hidden behind tile, may take 3–5 hours. We schedule arrival windows in Riceville Monday–Saturday and bring all the necessary parts so the work is finished in one visit whenever possible.
Do I need to purchase the new fixture myself?
That’s up to you. Many customers choose a fixture at a local Riceville home-improvement store or online and have it ready for us to install. If you prefer, we can supply professional-grade fixtures that aren’t sold at retail, often with longer warranties. In either case, we’ll review compatibility with your existing plumbing and provide a clear, written estimate before work begins.
Are permits or inspections required for fixture replacements in Riceville?
Simple like-for-like replacements of faucets, showerheads, or toilets generally do not require a city permit. However, any work that modifies drainage, venting, or potable-water lines behind the wall—or installs a new gas-fired water heater—does. Our team stays current with Riceville and Johnson County code; if a permit or inspection is needed, we’ll handle the paperwork and schedule the inspector at no extra hassle to you.
What will my fixture replacement cost, and do you offer warranties?
Pricing is based on the type of fixture, accessibility, and any plumbing modifications required. For example, installing a customer-supplied kitchen faucet typically ranges from $175–$250, while replacing a toilet with minor flange repairs may run $275–$350. We provide flat-rate quotes in advance, so there are no surprises. All labor is warranted for one year, and manufacturer warranties on fixtures we supply extend up to 10 years depending on the product.
