What do shower head installation services include?

Installing a new shower head into your bathroom may be the most cost-effective way to make your shower feel brand new. There can be many reasons why you want a replacement for your shower head. It may currently be leaking, scaling over, or not flowing correctly. You may also just want a new shower head with better features. Whatever the case, here is what you can expect when you book a shower head installation near you: 

Inspecting the shower plumbing

As a homeowner, you can quickly identify the problem in your shower plumbing. You probably see that your shower is leaking uncontrollably or the shower head’s water pressure has suddenly changed. A skilled plumber can help you identify the root cause of the problem. They can look closely for sediment build-up, mold, and leaks currently in your shower head’s plumbing system. Afterward, you may also want to get someone to clean your shower and make it look brand new!

Picking a shower head replacement

There are different kinds of new shower head replacements for you to choose from. It all depends on what you are looking for in your bathroom. When you book shower installations near you, a Tasker may tell you about the two kinds of shower heads: fixed or hand-held. A fixed shower head is mounted on the wall. This type of shower head can have rain, waterfall, pulsating, or massaging water flows.

 

On the other hand, picking a hand-held shower head offers you mobility and versatility. It can be taken off the wall, so you can quickly rinse off your entire body. You may also consider installing an electric shower to take out the hassle of mixing water temperature. 

Replacing the shower head

When you book a sower replacement near you, the job starts by unscrewing the old shower head. Once it’s off, your specialist moves on to cleaning the shower arm from rust, mineral deposits, sealant, and tape. When the threads of the shower arm are taped and ready, installers simply screw on the new shower head, and, voilà, you have a new shower head! 

To level up your shower, you may also want to install a shower screen to keep water from leaking to different parts of your bathroom. Experienced plumbers inspect the shower plumbing for any leaks before leaving you with your new shower head replacement.

Fix Loose Shower Spout Behind Tiled Wall (Licensed Plumber Required) Task Description: I need help fixing a loose shower spout that was likely over-tightened during a previous install. The pipe now turns inside the wall, which is preventing me from securely fitting a new water-saving showerhead I bought recently. There’s no leaking, but I’ve had a handyman inspect it and he believes the copper pipe behind the tiles has come loose and will need to be re-secured inside the wall. This would involve: • Removing some tiles • Securing the pipe to the wall internally • Resealing and retiling the area You must be a licensed plumber for this task. I’m currently using the communal shower in my building so there’s no urgent rush, but ideally I’d love to get this sorted before next week if possible. I’ve just had shoulder surgery and I’m off work, so funds are a bit tight 😅—but if it has to be done, it has to be done. I’ve attached photos and a screenshot of the convo with the handyman who assessed the issue for reference. Let me know if this is something you can take on and what the cost would be including tiling. Thanks! Trent

Very friendly and professional! Would definitely recommend to anyone for any major plumbing issues. Honest and reliable 👍
