A thermostatic valve holds an exact preset temperature regardless of pressure changes anywhere in the house. Thermostatic valves cost more upfront and are typically used in master bath upgrades or remodels.

A: Signs of a shower pan leak include soft or spongy flooring outside the shower, visible water staining on the ceiling of the room below the shower, a persistent mildew smell in the bathroom with no visible standing water, or grout lines that are darkened and soft near the shower base. We perform a flood test during the estimate to confirm.

A: Yes. Standard shower head and arm replacement requires no wall access. We unscrew the old arm from the wall fitting, apply plumber’s tape to the new arm threads, and install the new shower head. The whole swap takes 20-30 minutes. If the wall fitting itself is corroded and leaking, that requires opening the wall to access the valve body.

A: We install Kohler, Delta, and Moen pressure-balancing and thermostatic valves. We do not install budget or off-brand valves because OEM cartridges may not be available for future repairs.
