How do I maintain my new shower valve?
To maintain your new valve, avoid using abrasive chemical cleaners on the external trim, as these can damage the finish. If you live in an area with hard water, periodic professional flushing of the cartridge can help prevent mineral buildup and maintain smooth handle operation.
Why is professional shower valve replacement better than DIY?
Shower valve work often requires soldering pipes inside a finished wall, which is a significant fire risk without professional equipment. A licensed plumber ensures the valve is set at the correct depth and that all connections are secure, preventing hidden leaks that cause mold.
Is the replacement process messy?
We strive to make the process as clean as possible. By utilizing specialized tools designed for "behind the wall" work, we aim to minimize the need for tile removal. Our 3-step process includes a dedicated cleanup to leave your bathroom in great shape.
How does a new shower valve provide value?
A new valve provides value by preventing water waste and protecting users from scalding with modern pressure-balancing technology. It is an essential safety upgrade that improves the overall functionality and appeal of your home's bathrooms.
What logistics are involved in a valve replacement?
The process involves shutting off the main water supply, accessing the valve through the front or a rear access panel, and precisely fitting the new hardware. Our team manages these logistics efficiently to ensure your shower is back in service as quickly as possible.
