FAQs

How do I know when it’s time to replace my existing toilet instead of repairing it?

If your toilet is more than 20 years old, requires frequent repairs, has cracks in the tank or bowl, or shows a noticeable rise in water bills due to continuous running, replacement is usually the most cost-effective option. Modern high-efficiency toilets (HETs) use as little as 1.28 gallons per flush, saving hundreds of gallons per year compared to older 3.5-gallon models. Our Washburn technicians can inspect your unit and give an honest recommendation based on repair history, parts availability, and potential water-savings.

What types of toilets do you install for Washburn homeowners and businesses?

Attention to Detail Plumbing installs a full range of toilets, including standard two-piece, sleek one-piece, pressure-assisted, dual-flush, wall-hung, skirted, and comfort-height/ADA-compliant models. We carry trusted brands such as Toto, Kohler, American Standard, and Gerber. During an on-site consultation we’ll discuss bowl shape, rough-in size, flushing technology, and style preferences to match your budget and bathroom layout.

How long does a typical toilet replacement take, and will my bathroom be out of service for long?

Most residential replacements are completed in two to three hours. This includes shutting off the water, draining and removing the old toilet, installing a new wax or rubber seal, leveling and anchoring the new unit, reconnecting the supply line, and performing multiple flush tests. Your bathroom will be usable immediately after we finish, and we always protect flooring and haul away the old fixture for responsible disposal.

What should I expect to pay for a toilet upgrade in Washburn?

Pricing depends on the toilet style and any plumbing modifications required. On average, a standard two-piece HET installed starts around $475–$650, while premium one-piece, skirted, or wall-hung models can range from $850–$1,800 with installation. We provide written, upfront estimates that include the toilet, parts, labor, disposal, and a one-year workmanship warranty—no hidden fees.

Do new toilets really save water, and can I get rebates in Washburn?

Absolutely. Replacing a 3.5-gallon toilet with a 1.28-gallon WaterSense-certified model saves roughly 13,000 gallons per household per year. Lower water consumption means smaller utility bills and a greener footprint. Many municipalities, including portions of the Washburn area served by Bayfield County utilities, offer rebates of $25–$75 for WaterSense upgrades. We’ll supply the documentation you need to submit your rebate application.

Is there any maintenance or special care required after a new toilet installation?

New toilets are generally low-maintenance. We recommend using non-abrasive cleaners, avoiding in-tank drop-in tablets that can degrade internal components, and checking the shut-off valve annually for leaks. Every Attention to Detail Plumbing installation includes a complimentary follow-up call after 30 days; if any adjustments are needed, we’ll attend to them free of charge. For peace of mind, all toilets we install come with manufacturer warranties of 5–10 years on china and mechanics, plus our one-year labor warranty.
