Hi... I want to have a new toilet installed in my bathroom.. Already
has plumbing, just want a new toilet.. Also I want to change the
fixtures on my pedestal ..So I will need the plumber to change the old
plumbing fixtures on the pedestal (they were bronze, need to be
brushed) *They quoted me, 500-700 to do the work.. I am providing the
toilet and fixtures.. Is that expensive ?

Umm, yeah. I'm not a plumber, and I've done all of that myself, quite a few
times, and it should take less than 3 hours. Perhaps (usually) there will be
a side trip to the plumbing store for some random part/pipe/tool, but if it
takes you longer than 5 hours, you might not want to do it yourself. Still,
$500+ is WAAAAY high. The last toilet I changed out took less than an hour.
