Professional Shower Installation & Replacement in London

Updating your bathroom with a new shower unit can transform it into a spa-like experience. With so many make and models of showers available, choosing the right one to satisfy your needs can be quite daunting. The installation costs will, of course, depend on your choice and its configuration. There are certain factors to think about when selecting a shower unit to ensure it meets the family’s needs.

First, what is the water pressure like in your area? Is it sufficient to give that relaxing spa-like feeling, or do you have to run around under the shower head just to get wet? How quickly does the water flow through the pipe work to the taps and shower? Too low a pressure means it will take much longer to fill a bath or sink, and the shower may only produce a trickle. High pressure is the complete opposite, giving a strong, invigorating shower and being able to fill a bathtub or sink in no time.

When choosing a new shower (e.g., electric), many factors must be considered. If you’re looking for a bespoke design in London, first consider the type of showerhead you want and the type of enclosure.

There are numerous designs available, including:

Manual mixer showers
Thermostatic mixer showers
Electric showers
Concealed/exposed showers
Digital showers

Things to consider before installing a new shower

Availability and cost

When selecting a shower, you must consider not just the available designs but also the cost. Some shower types may be more unique and appealing, but they could come with a higher price tag than generic types. Additionally, if you opt for a niche product, finding replacement parts may prove challenging, with limited supplier options. It’s important to consider future repair or replacement costs in addition to the initial purchase price. Accessory availability, electricity usage, heating options, and manufacturers, such as Mira and Triton, are also important factors to consider for quality and warranty guarantees.

If you reside in London, where water pressure can be low, you may also want to keep this in mind when selecting your shower type.

Is the water pressure sufficient?

Consulting a serviceteam plumbing engineer regarding concerns about your water pressure makes good sense and should be done before you purchase a new shower or shower head. Why? Well, someone might think that changing the type of your shower head for a bigger one will increase the water pressure – it won’t!

Serviceteam Ltd. London will be able to explain your options, which may include installing a shower pump or upgrading your boiler to cope with any increase in demand.

Is space a problem?

If space is limited, why not install a smaller bath and a corner shower enclosure/cubicle? Many households today are ditching their bathtubs altogether (due to water conservation), freeing up more space for a walk-in shower that runs the length of the bathroom. Shower enclosures/cubicles vary in design; there’s always one available to meet your specific requirements. An enclosure or cubicle that’s easy to maintain is always a good option.

With various options available for shower installation, it’s important to consider each advantage to ensure the best fit for your needs. However, it’s also important to consider practicalities, such as water pressure and the number of outlets available in your location, like London. Sometimes, a compromise may be necessary to ensure effective function. When selecting a shower fitting, be sure to consider factors such as the guarantee they offer, heating options and accessories, and compatibility. Brands like Mira and Triton offer a range of options to suit various needs. For shower installations or replacements in London, get a quote from a professional plumber. Take time to consider shower options that provide a comfortable and functional bathing experience for everyone.

Power shower

Power showers are an excellent option for those upgrading their showering experience. While it’s important not to mistake them for electric showers, power showers do share some similarities. They utilise both hot and cold water supplies and can be augmented with a shower pump for increased pressure. Installing a power shower is ideal for those with a gravity-fed system and a storage tank situated in the loft. If you’re located in London and want to install a power shower, seek a professional who can provide you with a work quote and guarantee their work. Additionally, should you ever need accessories, repair, or replacement services, choosing a reputable provider that charges VAT is essential.

Electric shower

If you’re considering a shower upgrade, install an electric shower might be the best option. This is a popular choice since electric showers are quick and easy to install. Moreover, they come with their own heating element. It’s an affordable option that will stay within the budget.

The advantage? Well, the electric shower doesn’t require a mixer unit, as these showers come with a heating element and only need a cold water supply. Overall, this is a cost-effective way to enjoy a new shower without major renovation work.

Mixer shower

If you’re looking for a practical and reliable shower option, the mixer shower might be the right choice for you. Unlike electric showers, it doesn’t require a power supply, making it a cost-efficient solution. Moreover, it manually combines hot and cold water to regulate the temperature to your liking; even in areas with low water pressure, mixer shower installations work smoothly, a fantastic option for homeowners in London and other places with similar characteristics. Its simplicity also makes it easy to repair or replace accessories, and most models guarantee additional peace of mind. So, if you’re considering replacing your current shower, a mixer shower might be just what you need.

Thermostatic shower

Thermostatic showers have an integral thermostatic valve to avoid scalding and regulate the shower temperature throughout. It is an excellent choice for families, but the water pressure must be sufficient for the best results.
