Shower leaking, low pressure or stopped working — John repairs and installs showers across Stirling and Dunblane.

Shower services John covers

Shower Leaks

Leaking from the tray, the enclosure or the waste — John traces the source and fixes it properly. Often linked to worn silicone or a failed waste seal.

Mixer Valve Replacement

A shower that won't hold temperature or only runs hot/cold is usually a worn thermostatic cartridge. John replaces these on most shower brands.

Electric Shower Installation

Full installation of a new electric shower unit. John handles the plumbing connection — electrical connection requires a qualified electrician.

Mixer Shower Installation

Mains-fed or thermostatic mixer showers — full installation including enclosure plumbing. Typically takes 2.5–4.5 hours.

Low Pressure Issues

Weak flow from your shower is often an airlock, a blocked filter or a pump issue. John diagnoses the cause and advises the most cost-effective fix.

Shower Tiling

As a qualified tiler as well as plumber, John can tile around a new or existing shower enclosure — no need for a second tradesperson.

"John came out the day after I contacted him on a Saturday, diagnosed the problem promptly and did a very neat job. I was expecting a very hefty bill but again he surprised me with a very reasonable charge."
