Top Shower Head Installation related questions

There may be numerous causes to why your shower head is malfunctioning. It can have a leak, sediment build-up, or mold. It may simply be getting old or worn down. Leaks can be caused by water supply valves or a loose shower head. On the other hand, sediment build-up is caused by the additives of chemicals in your water supply. Lastly, mold is to be expected from a worn-down shower head since it is constantly connected to the water supply. 

No, you don’t need to replace your shower system. Problems in the shower head may simply come from the shower head itself. It’s best to have someone take a look at your plumbing to be sure. However, replacing your entire shower may not be necessary unless you are looking to renovate your bathroom. 

Yes, you may need to provide the shower head. This allows you to choose the shower head you want installed in your bathroom. If you’re unsure of what shower head to pick, you may include this in your task. Some Taskers may assist you in picking the right one for your bathroom. Once you have it, taskers will get to work and replace the old one right away!

No. The great thing about hiring a Tasker is that you don’t need to worry about purchasing your own tools. With their experience, they may likely have everything they need to start the job right away. You don’t need to bother learning about the different wrenches and tapes required for replacing a shower head. 

Replacing a shower head can easily be done in one to two hours if your Tasker doesn’t encounter any problems. Most shower heads are screwed onto the shower arm, so it’s just a matter of removing the old one and screwing on the new one. They may take time to clean the shower arm to ensure nothing will cause future problems like rust and build-up. 

Yes, it’s possible. However, it’s best to leave it to someone with the proper knowledge and experience. There are a lot of do-it-yourself videos on how to replace a shower head by yourself, but hiring a professional can lessen the chances of accidents and further problems. You can go through the profiles of different Taskers making offers so you can be sure that your shower is in good hands.

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.

Need Help Removing Stuck Shower Heads

£45

Guildford, Surrey, GU1

7th Nov 2024

Looking for someone to help unscrew 4 shower head attachments that seem to be stuck. Experience with plumbing or tools preferred to safely remove them without causing any damage.

James was fantastic—very communicative and right on time. We had some extremely stubborn shower head attachments that needed removal. He managed to get one off successfully, and for the others, he put in a solid effort but they were simply too difficult to budge (no fault of his own). He was careful throughout, ensuring no damage was done. Highly recommend his services!
