Shower installation

Before we fit a shower we test your pressure and your hot water. Then we recommend one that will work properly in your house.

Walk-in shower with glass screen and slate tiles

Sounds like yours if

✓ The shower runs hot, then cold
✓ The flow is a trickle
✓ Limescale has wrecked the head and valve
✓ You want to swap the bath for a walk-in

Swindon has hard water and showers show it first. Scale builds up in valves and heads and the flow drops. Sometimes a new valve fixes it. Sometimes the answer is a pump or a different type of shower.

We fit mixer showers, electric showers and pumped systems, over a bath or in an enclosure with a new tray and screen.

What this covers

✓ Pressure and flow test
✓ Mixer and thermostatic valves
✓ Electric shower swaps
✓ Shower pumps
✓ Walk-in trays, screens and enclosures
Tip

Soak the shower head in white vinegar overnight. If the flow comes back, scale was the problem.

Why is my shower so weak?

Usually low pressure, a blocked head or a failing valve. We test which one before suggesting anything.

Can you fit an electric shower?

We fit the shower and the plumbing. The new cable and isolator are done by an electrician we work with.

Ring and tell us what is going on

You speak to the plumber who will do the job. We will tell you when we can come and roughly what it will cost.
