Pricing & What Affects the Cost
Minor plumbing is usually straightforward, but access and parts can vary. Simple like-for-like swaps (faucet, toilet, vanity) are most affordable. Costs increase with tight access, shut-off valve issues, corroded threads, tile/stone drilling, or when new drain configurations are needed.
Typical price drivers:
- Fixture type & complexity: Basic faucet vs. widespread or wall-mount; standard vs. skirted/one-piece toilets.
- Access & condition: Old shut-offs that won’t close, galvanized/corroded fittings, cramped vanities.
- Materials & parts: New supply lines, traps, wax/ring kits, escutcheons, adapters.
- Finish work: Silicone/caulk, small drywall patching, paint touch-ups (quoted if needed).
You’ll receive a written, line-item estimate before we start so you can compare options and avoid surprises.
Scope, Safety & Compliance (Read This Part)
We focus on fixture installations and minor repairs—the kinds of tasks typically completed without opening major plumbing systems. For pressurized lines, gas, new drain routing, water heaters, main stacks, or permits/inspections that require a licensed plumber under local regulations, we’ll advise and refer. If a job reveals hidden issues (e.g., failing shut-offs, rotten subfloor, non-compatible valves), we’ll pause, explain the options, and update the quote before proceeding. Safety first, shortcuts never.
Our Process
Step 1 – Assessment & Estimate:
Confirm fixture specs, shut-off condition, and access; provide a clear price.
Step 2 – Install:
Remove the old unit, prep surfaces, set the new fixture, connect water/drain, and test.
Step 3 – Finish & Clean-Up:
Silicone/caulk where needed, tidy the area, and review maintenance tips.
Optional – Make It Look New:
Coordinate drywall repair and paint if any surfaces were opened.
Mini Case Study
A Pickering homeowner had a slow-leaking vanity faucet and a loose toilet. We replaced the faucet with a widespread model, updated the stiff shut-offs and supply lines, reset the toilet with a new wax ring and closet bolts, then re-caulked the base. The powder room was back in service in a single visit—no more leaks or rocking, with clean silicone lines.
Benefits
- Professional fit and sealing to prevent drips and water damage
- Clean, consistent silicone/caulk lines and aligned hardware
- Time saved vs. DIY, plus help choosing compatible parts
- Optional patch/paint so the room looks finished the same week
