Sounds familiar?
- Shower runs hot and cold or won't hold temperature
- Weak flow from the shower
- Mixer valve leaking or stiff
- Bath waste leaking below
- Water backing up in the shower tray
- Bath tap dripping
A thermostatic mixer that won’t hold temperature is a cartridge. Weak flow is pressure or a blocked head. Both are diagnosable in minutes.
What happens when we arrive
1
Diagnose
Flow and temperature at the valve, pressure at the property, waste and trap checked.
2
Repair or replace
Cartridge, valve, bath taps, waste and trap replaced from stock; a new mixer fitted if the old one is beyond it.
3
Test
Hot, cold, mixed, and the waste under a full drain.
What's on the van
- Thermostatic cartridges for common makes
- Bar mixers and bath-shower mixers
- Bath and shower wastes and traps
- Flexible hoses and heads
- Silicone and seals
What it can and can't fix
Mixer showers, bath taps, wastes, traps and the pipework to them. Electric showers and power-shower pumps on the electrical side are outside our trade.
Timing and price
A cartridge or waste is an hour. A new mixer valve two to three hours.
There are no prices on this page because the price depends on what we find and where. What we can promise is how it works: the call-out is £49, the engineer looks at the job and quotes it in front of you before touching anything, and the quote you agree is the price on the invoice. If we find something different from what you described, we tell you before continuing. The £49 call-out covers the visit and the diagnosis.

FAQs
Asked on the phone
An unbalanced or failing thermostatic cartridge, or low pressure. We fix the first and can improve the second with a pump.
Often, with a booster pump on a tank-fed system. See water tanks and pumps.
No, they need an electrician. We’ll do the water side if one is being fitted.
Usually the tray seal or the waste. Quick to fix once found.
Usually, through the panel.
Replace. Cartridges for old valves are hard to find and the body will be scaled.
Water rising or coming through the ceiling right now?
Don’t fill in a form. Call, and an engineer will be on the road in minutes. We’ll talk you through the stopcock while they drive.
