FAQs
When should I consider replacing my plumbing fixtures instead of repairing them?
You should think about replacement when fixtures are more than 10–15 years old, show persistent leaks, have corrosion or mineral buildup that cleaning no longer solves, or are no longer code-compliant. Replacing also makes sense if repairs are becoming frequent and costly, if parts are discontinued, or if you want water-saving technology and updated finishes to improve efficiency and aesthetics.
What kinds of fixtures can your Sunbright plumbers replace?
Our licensed technicians swap out a full range of residential and light-commercial fixtures, including kitchen and bath faucets, sinks, toilets, garbage disposals, shower valves, tub spouts, showerheads, bidets, laundry/utility sinks, ice-maker lines, outdoor hose bibs, and point-of-use water filters. We can also retrofit low-flow or ADA-compliant models to meet local conservation or accessibility requirements.
How long does a typical plumbing fixture replacement take?
Most single-fixture jobs—such as a faucet or toilet—take 1–3 hours. More complex projects (e.g., relocating a shower valve, installing multiple fixtures, or correcting hidden pipe issues) can extend to half a day or more. We provide a time estimate after a site inspection so you know what to expect and can plan around water shut-offs.
Will new fixtures really save water and lower my utility bills?
Yes. Modern WaterSense-labeled faucets, showerheads, and toilets use 20–60 % less water than older models without sacrificing performance. Over a year, that can translate to hundreds of gallons saved and noticeable reductions on both water and energy bills (because you heat less water). We offer product options with published efficiency ratings so you can see the projected savings before you commit.
Can you help me choose and supply the replacement fixtures?
Absolutely. We maintain relationships with reputable suppliers and can recommend fixtures that fit your décor, budget, and performance goals. During our consultation we discuss style, finish, flow rates, and warranty coverage, then present curated options. We can purchase the selected items on your behalf—often at contractor pricing—or install fixtures you’ve already bought, provided they meet local code.
Do I need a permit for fixture replacements in Sunbright, and who handles the paperwork?
Simple like-for-like swaps (e.g., replacing a faucet or toilet in the same location) usually don’t require a permit in Sunbright. However, any work involving relocation of water lines, changes to drainage, or accessibility upgrades often does. We stay current with city and county regulations, pull permits when necessary, coordinate inspections, and include all fees in your written estimate so there are no surprises.
