📋 How to Prepare for My Visit

  • Sanitation: Please ensure the existing toilet is clean and sanitary; a $25 cleaning fee applies otherwise.

  • Inspection Required: Please unbox and verify the condition of your new toilet upon delivery. To respect my scheduling, a $50 service fee will be assessed if I arrive and am unable to complete the installation due to a damaged unit, missing parts, or the incorrect size for your space.

  • The "Fresh Paint" Bonus: If you've recently painted, have your touch-up paint ready! I’ll happily paint the wall space behind the tank (previously hidden) at no extra cost while the old unit is out. 

  • Decision Maker: An adult (18+) must be present to authorize the installation.

  • Safety: Please keep children and pets away from the work area for their safety.

⚠️ Services That May Incur an Additional Charge

  • Critical Components: If the flange or shut-off valve is damaged, they must be replaced to ensure a leak-free seal. I cannot warranty an installation on faulty hardware.

  • Drain Issues: If your drain is clogged, it may require snaking by a specialist. I do not offer snaking services.

  • Project Delays: If I must leave the site for unforeseen reasons (wrong parts/sizes), time is billed at $30 per 30 minutes.

We had a toilet that had been rocking for months and finally started leaking. John came out, found a cracked flange we didn't know about, and fixed it all properly. He was much more thorough than the last plumber we used. No more leaks and the seat is perfectly level!
