FAQs
What kinds of plumbing fixtures can your South Pittsburg team replace?
Our licensed plumbers can remove and install virtually any residential or light-commercial fixture, including kitchen and bath faucets, toilets, shower valves and heads, bathtubs, utility sinks, garbage disposals, dishwashers, ice-maker lines, outside hose bibbs, and even whole-house shut-off valves. We keep common brands and models in stock locally so you are not limited to special orders or long shipping times.
How fast can you schedule a fixture replacement in South Pittsburg?
Because our warehouse and dispatch center are located just off U.S. Highway 72, most customers inside the South Pittsburg city limits can receive same-day or next-day service. Emergency replacements (for example, a leaking toilet or a broken kitchen faucet that cannot be shut off) are given priority and we can typically be on-site within two hours, 24/7, including weekends and holidays.
Do I need a permit to replace a faucet, toilet, or other fixture in South Pittsburg?
For simple like-for-like swaps—such as changing a faucet, shower head, or toilet of the same type—South Pittsburg ’s building department does not require a permit. However, if the fixture replacement involves moving drain or supply lines, altering venting, or upgrading to a new fixture type (e.g., converting a tub to a walk-in shower), a plumbing permit and city inspection are required. As a licensed contractor, we handle the entire permitting and inspection process for you, ensuring the work passes current Tennessee Plumbing Code and local amendments.
How much does fixture replacement typically cost?
Prices vary by fixture, brand, and installation complexity, but the ranges below will give you a solid idea: • Bathroom faucet: $195–$325 including new supply lines and disposal of the old faucet. • Kitchen faucet: $225–$395, particularly if we must disconnect a garbage disposal or pull a sink. • Standard toilet: $325–$525, which covers the new wax ring, supply line, flange bolts, and haul-away. • Shower valve cartridge replacement: $250–$450; full valve body replacement starts at $650. • Garbage disposal: $275–$425, depending on horsepower. Every project starts with a free, no-obligation estimate so you always know the price upfront.
Can you recommend water-saving fixtures that qualify for local or state rebates?
Absolutely. We regularly install EPA WaterSense-labeled toilets (1.28 gpf or less), faucets (1.5 gpm), and showerheads (2.0 gpm). Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) and the South Pittsburg Water Works offer periodic rebates—usually $25–$75 per qualifying toilet or showerhead. We’ll guide you to models that meet the rebate criteria, supply the necessary documentation, and even submit the rebate forms for you if you like.
How should I prepare my home before the plumber arrives?
1. Clear the work area: Remove items from under sinks, around toilets, or in the shower so we have unobstructed access. 2. Shut off any appliance or electronics near the fixture to prevent accidental water damage. 3. Know where your main water shut-off is located; although we rarely need to shut the entire house down, it’s good information to have. 4. Keep pets secured in another room for their safety and ours. 5. Have the decision maker present or reachable by phone in case unexpected issues arise. Following these steps allows us to complete your fixture replacement quickly, cleanly, and with minimal disruption to your day.
