Showers We Install & Repair
We Install and Repair all types of Showers. Here are a few examples:
In the UK, there are various types of showers that plumbers install and repair. Each type offers different features and serves various needs. Here’s a rundown of some common types of showers:
Electric Showers
Electric Showers take cold water and heat it electrically. The unit has a heating element that doesn’t rely on the household’s hot water system. It’s a popular choice in the UK due to its independence from the central heating system.
Mixer Showers
Mixer Showers combine hot and cold water from the household supply to reach the desired temperature. They work best in homes with strong and consistent water pressure.
Thermostatic Mixer Showers
Similar to standard mixer Showers, Thermostatic Showers have a built-in thermostat that adjusts the water temperature if there’s a sudden change in water pressure. This feature ensures a constant, stable temperature, reducing the risk of scalding.
Power Showers
A Power Shower is a mixer shower with a built-in pump to boost the water flow. This type is ideal for homes with low water pressure.
Digital Showers
These are modern showers where a digital panel controls the flow and temperature. The panel can be located either inside or outside the shower enclosure.
Eco Showers
Designed to use less water than conventional showers, these are perfect for environmentally-conscious households. They might be Mixer, Electric, or Power Showers but are designed to limit water flow without compromising performance.
Dual Showers
Dual Showers have multiple outlets, such as an overhead shower and a hand-held showerhead. The user can choose which outlet to use or even use both simultaneously.
Bar Mixer Showers
These are a type of thermostatic shower with a bar-shaped valve mounted on the wall. The controls are typically very user-friendly, with one control for flow and another for temperature.
Column Showers
These are standalone units that incorporate both the controls and the showerhead into a single column. They can be a striking design feature in modern bathrooms.

Our Plumbers can rectify any Shower issue. Typical shower issues that require repair include:
- Low Water Pressure: Caused by blockages, faulty valves, or supply issues.
- Inconsistent Water Temperature: Often due to faulty thermostatic valves or heating system problems.
- Dripping or Leaking Showerheads: Resulting from worn-out seals or cartridges.
