Common Tub & Shower Valve Issues We Repair

Tub and shower valves regulate water pressure and temperature mix inside your bathroom wall. We repair all major brands including Moen, Delta, Kohler, and Pfister:

Dripping Spout or Showerhead Constant dripping when the handle is turned off indicates a worn internal cartridge, degraded rubber seats, or cracked spring seals.

Inconsistent Hot/Cold Mix Sudden scalding hot or freezing cold water swings caused by a sticking pressure-balancing spool cartridge inside the rough-in valve body.

Low Shower Water Flow Mineral deposits and hard water scale clogging internal cartridge ports or restricting showerhead aerator nozzles.

Stiff or Loose Valve Handles Seized valve stems that are hard to turn, or stripped handle splines spinning freely without adjusting water flow.

Frequently Asked Questions

📖 Can you repair my shower valve without breaking open the bathroom tile or wall? Yes! In the vast majority of cases, a dripping shower spout or erratic temperature issue is fixed by replacing the internal cartridge valve. Our plumbers pull and replace the cartridge directly through the front trim plate without disturbing your tile or acrylic wall surrounds.

💡 Why does my shower water suddenly turn scalding hot or freezing cold? Temperature spikes occur when the pressure-balancing spool inside your shower valve cartridge gets stuck or clogged with mineral deposits. Replacing the pressure-balancing cartridge restores steady anti-scald temperature control.

⏱️ Why is my tub spout still leaking water when the showerhead is turned on? If water continues running from the tub spout after pulling up the diverter pin, the diverter gate inside the tub spout is worn out. Replacing the tub spout or internal gate seal fixes the issue and restores full shower pressure.

🛠️ How long does a tub or shower valve repair service take? A standard cartridge replacement or diverter repair generally takes our certified plumbers 1 to 2 hours.

🚨 What should I do if my shower valve won't shut off and water keeps running? Shut off your home's main water supply valve immediately (or the local bathroom branch shut-off valve if accessible) to prevent water waste, then contact On Demand Mechanical for immediate repair.
