FAQs
What types of plumbing fixtures can you replace in my Rockford home?
Our licensed technicians can replace virtually any water-using fixture in your kitchen, bathroom, or utility area. That includes sinks, faucets, garbage disposals, dishwashers, toilets (standard, comfort-height, and dual-flush), bidets, showerheads, tub and shower valves, laundry tubs, outside hose bibs, and even specialized fixtures such as pot fillers or wet-bar sinks. We handle both residential and light-commercial properties throughout Rockford and the surrounding Winnebago County communities.
How do I know when it’s better to replace a fixture instead of repairing it?
We generally recommend replacement when one or more of the following apply: • The fixture has recurring leaks or internal corrosion that repairs can’t permanently solve. • Replacement parts are discontinued or cost more than 50% of a new fixture. • You notice chronic low flow, rust stains, or worn finishes that detract from appearance and performance. • Your water bills are rising due to an inefficient, pre-1994 model (especially toilets and showerheads). • You’re remodeling and want a coordinated, modern look or upgraded features such as touchless operation. During our on-site evaluation, we’ll show you the pros and cons of repair vs. replacement and provide transparent pricing for each option.
Do you offer eco-friendly or water-saving fixture options?
Absolutely. We stock and install EPA WaterSense-certified faucets, showerheads, and high-efficiency toilets that can cut water use by 20–60% without sacrificing performance. For example, a WaterSense 1.28 gpf toilet can save the average Rockford household up to 13,000 gallons of water—and roughly $140—per year. We can also outfit you with lead-free brass faucets, motion-activated or metered fixtures for commercial restrooms, and thermostatic mixing valves that prevent scalding while conserving hot water.
How long does a typical fixture replacement take?
Most standard swaps—such as replacing a faucet, toilet, or showerhead—take 1–3 hours and can be completed in a single visit. More complex jobs that involve rerouting supply lines, installing a new bathtub, or upgrading multiple fixtures during a remodel may require 4–8 hours or a full workday. Before we begin, you’ll receive an accurate timeline so you know exactly when water will be shut off and when the job will be finished.
Will you dispose of my old fixtures and handle any required permits?
Yes. We remove and responsibly dispose of or recycle your old fixtures at no extra charge. If the replacement involves changes to drain lines, venting, or structural alterations (common during tub-to-shower conversions), Rockford building codes require a permit. Our team secures all necessary permits, schedules inspections, and ensures that the finished work meets the Illinois Plumbing Code and local ordinances.
How much does fixture replacement cost and do you offer financing?
Pricing depends on the fixture type, brand, and any modifications to piping or cabinetry. As a ballpark, faucet replacements start around $225 installed, standard toilets run $450–$750, and full bathtub or shower valve replacements range from $850–$1,800. You’ll receive a written, flat-rate estimate before work begins—no hidden fees. We accept all major credit cards and offer 0% short-term financing and longer-term low-interest plans through our lending partner to make larger projects budget-friendly.
