Faucet, toilet and fixture installation in Smyrna

Before we set a new faucet we look at the supply lines. If they are old rubber hoses, we replace them with braided lines. Before we set a toilet we check the flange for cracks and the floor for soft spots, because a toilet on a weak floor will rock and leak.

A fixture is only as good as its connections.

Most of our fixture calls in Smyrna come from owners who have lived in a place long enough to know what they hate about it. The faucet that splashes. The toilet that needs two flushes. The sink that never quite drains. A change of fixture often fixes the complaint, and sometimes the complaint turns out to be a clogged aerator or a worn flapper that costs very little.

We will tell you which it is before you buy anything.

Most toilet problems come from a handful of causes. A wobble usually means the flange is loose, sits low, or the floor beneath it has softened. A leak at the base means the wax seal has failed, which often follows a wobble. A weak flush can be a clogged rim hole, a worn flapper, or a vent problem. A tank that runs constantly is almost always a flapper or a fill valve.

Fixing the cause is better than swapping the toilet. We check the flange and the floor first. If a flange is cracked, we repair it. If the floor is soft, we tell you, since a new toilet on a bad floor will fail again. If the toilet itself is cracked or the china is worn, we replace it with one that suits the room.
