FAQs
How do I know if my toilet in Speedwell needs an upgrade or full replacement?
Common signs include frequent clogging, visible cracks in the bowl or tank, persistent leaks around the base, higher-than-normal water bills, or the need to plunge more than once a month. If your toilet is more than 20 years old, switching to a modern high-efficiency model can save up to 13,000 gallons of water annually, which is significant for Speedwell’s utility rates.
What types of high-efficiency toilets do you install, and which is best for my home?
We install dual-flush, pressure-assisted, and ultra-high-efficiency gravity toilets from trusted brands such as Kohler, Toto, and American Standard. The best choice depends on your household size, water-pressure levels in Speedwell, and your budget. Dual-flush models offer flexibility between 0.8 gpf (gallons per flush) and 1.28 gpf, while pressure-assisted units provide extra flushing power for homes that struggle with clogs.
How long does a typical toilet replacement or upgrade take?
A straight swap—removing the old toilet and installing a new one—usually takes about 2–3 hours. If we need to correct flange height, replace the shut-off valve, or address subfloor damage, the project can extend to a half-day. We schedule appointments in two-hour arrival windows, and most Speedwell homeowners can use their new toilet the same afternoon.
Will I need a permit for a toilet replacement in Speedwell?
For like-for-like replacements, the town of Speedwell generally does not require a plumbing permit. However, if the project involves relocating the drain line, altering venting, or making structural changes, we will secure the necessary permits with the county building department. Our team handles all paperwork and inspection scheduling at no additional cost.
What is the cost range for a professional toilet upgrade, and what factors affect the price?
Standard replacements in Speedwell start around $450, which includes removal, disposal, a quality wax ring or wax-free seal, new supply line, and labor. Premium models with bidet seats or smart features can raise the total to $1,200–$2,500. Costs increase if we need to repair water-damaged subfloors, adjust plumbing rough-in, or upgrade to ADA height.
Do you offer warranties or maintenance plans for newly installed toilets?
Yes. All installations come with a 2-year labor warranty, and the toilet itself carries the manufacturer’s parts warranty (typically 5–10 years). We also offer an annual maintenance plan that includes a full flush performance test, leak inspection, and water-usage audit to keep your Speedwell home running efficiently.
