Replacing or installing a new toilet should be a quick win for your home—yet many Dallas homeowners discover that what looks like a one-hour DIY project can stretch into days of unexpected cost and mess. CountBricks streamlines the entire process. Using our real-time voice-to-estimate platform, you can walk us through your bathroom on a video call, receive an itemized materials list, and schedule installation without ever opening a spreadsheet.
• A modern, high-efficiency toilet cuts water bills by up to 30 % in Texas drought conditions
• New fixtures raise resale value—buyers notice sparkling bathrooms first
• Current plumbing codes in Dallas–Fort Worth require specific flush volumes; older units may no longer pass inspection
CountBricks gathers live pricing from local suppliers every hour. The figures below reflect the median numbers our algorithm produced last month:
• Standard two-piece toilet: $180–$260
• Compact one-piece or skirted toilet: $350–$600
• Labor (remove old unit, prep flange, set new wax ring, connect, test): $225–$325
• Typical permitting when drain lines move: $45–$90
That adds up to a range of $405–$1,015, depending on style and complexity. Because CountBricks integrates live supplier APIs, our estimates land within 3 % of final invoice totals—far tighter than the 10–15 % swing many homeowners see with traditional contractors.
1. Speak your vision. On a five-minute voice call, describe current issues (rocking toilet, stains, leaks) and design goals (comfort height, matte black accents).
2. Instant takeoff. As you point your phone at the flange, CountBricks AI measures rough-in distance, supply offset, and floor level to recommend compatible fixtures.
3. Same-day estimate. Within minutes you receive a branded PDF with SKU links, labor hours, tax, and contingency reserve—ready to forward to the HOA or lender.
4. Schedule install. Approve with a tap and choose a two-hour arrival window. Our certified installers see the same data set, eliminating hand-off errors.
5. Live progress tracking. During installation you receive status pings: old unit removed, flange inspected, new toilet set, caulk curing.
• Pier-and-beam homes in East Dallas often hide cast-iron stacks that sit higher than modern PVC. Our crews carry flange extenders sized in ⅛-inch increments to guarantee wobble-free seating.
• Mineral-rich water in northern suburbs can clog fill valves. CountBricks specifies brass shank fill valves with removable screens to extend lifespan.
• Many 1960s homes have 14-inch rough-ins; big-box toilets assume 12 inches. Our AI flags the mismatch and suggests an adjustable offset collar before materials hit the truck.
• Two-piece: budget friendly and easier to maneuver through tight hallways
• One-piece: seamless look, fewer crevices for dust, slightly heavier to install
• Wall-hung: modern floating aesthetic, saves floor space, requires carrier frame inside wall
• Smart toilets: integrated bidet, heated seat, and automatic flush—draw a dedicated GFCI outlet, which CountBricks electricians can install during the same visit
The City of Dallas offers seasonal rebates for WaterSense-labeled fixtures. CountBricks auto-populates qualifying model numbers in your estimate and attaches rebate forms, saving you another $50–$100 per toilet.
Independent plumbers and remodelers use our platform to cut paperwork time by 70 %. When you accept a CountBricks residential estimate, you’re matched with a licensed pro who:

• Torque on closet bolts measured

• Base caulked with mildew-resistant silicone

When the Morales family purchased a 1954 pier-and-beam bungalow in Lakewood, the first priority was replacing the original 5-gallon toilet that wasted hundreds of gallons each month. They opened the CountBricks app, narrated a 90-second walkthrough, and showed the uneven hex-tile floor.
• 15-inch rough-in detected—flagged need for offset flange
• Floor slope measured at 3⁄8-inch—recommended flange shim kit
• Supply line copper, 3⁄8-inch OD—no new shut-off required
1. Estimate approved the same afternoon: $612 all-in, including Kohler WaterSense toilet, flange kit, brass supply connector, disposal, labor, and permit.
2. Installation booked for Saturday 9-11 am. Crew finished at 10:35, uploaded photos, and ran leak tests.
3. Water bill dropped by 22 % in the first month. Rebate paperwork auto-filled by CountBricks saved another $75.
• Clear a 3-foot radius around the fixture—installers need space to align the tank
• Snap photos of shut-off valves before the call—the AI identifies corroded stems
• Ask about flooring—if you plan to retile soon, coordinate both tasks to avoid double labor
Master plumber Julius M. credits the platform with slashing admin time: “I click ‘Accept,’ see the exact SKU list, and know the profit margin upfront. No haggling, no last-minute parts runs.” His crew now completes three extra installs each week—with happier clients.
