FAQs
What signs indicate I should replace my toilet rather than repair it?
Frequent clogs, cracks in the tank or bowl, visible leaks around the base, constantly running water, high water bills, or an outdated 3.5-gallon-per-flush model are all clear indicators. In Sequatchie, many older homes still use pre-1994 fixtures; replacing them can cut water use by up to 60 %. If repairs are becoming routine or parts are hard to find, a new toilet is the smarter, more cost-effective choice.
How long does a professional toilet replacement typically take?
For most standard replacements, our licensed plumbers can remove the old unit, inspect and prepare the flange, install a new wax or rubber seal, set the toilet, level it, and test all connections within 90 – 120 minutes. Complexities—such as flange damage, subfloor rot, or relocating the rough-in—can add time, but we’ll provide a clear estimate before any work begins.
Are high-efficiency (low-flow) toilets allowed in Sequatchie and will they really save water?
Yes. Tennessee plumbing codes fully approve 1.28 gpf (WaterSense) and even 1.0 gpf ultra-high-efficiency toilets. Upgrading from a 3.5 gpf unit can save about 13,000 gallons per household per year—enough to noticeably lower your Sequatchie Utility District water bill. Modern designs use advanced bowl geometry and pressure-assisted flush valves, so performance actually improves while water use drops.
Can you install specialty toilets such as comfort-height or bidet combinations?
Absolutely. We carry standard height, ADA/comfort-height, skirted, wall-hung, pressure-assist, dual-flush, and integrated bidet seat models. During our on-site visit we’ll confirm rough-in dimensions (usually 12", but 10" or 14" are possible in older Sequatchie homes), assess electrical outlet needs for bidet seats, and recommend models that fit your style, accessibility, and budget goals.
What is included in your toilet replacement service and what costs should I expect?
Our flat-rate package covers removal of the old toilet, inspection and minor cleaning of the drain line, new wax/rubber ring, stainless-steel closet bolts and caps, supply line, caulking, leveling shims, and full functionality testing. Pricing starts around $325 for a customer-supplied standard toilet and averages $575–$900 for a turnkey upgrade with a quality WaterSense-rated fixture, depending on brand and features. We provide upfront written quotes—no hidden fees.
Do you handle disposal of the old toilet and clean-up after the installation?
Yes. We pallet-wrap the old toilet to prevent drips, transport it for proper recycling or disposal, and leave your bathroom spotless. Protective drop cloths, shoe covers, and debris removal are standard. You get a clean, ready-to-use bathroom and a 1-year workmanship warranty for added peace of mind.
