Quick and high-quality shower installation in Welland

Showering is a crucial part of our daily routine. However, shower installation can be a daunting task if you attempt to do it yourself. The process involves drilling holes, taking measurements, connecting pipes to the water and sewage systems, and ensuring the shower floor slopes correctly to allow for proper drainage. While it is possible to complete the process on your own, there is an increased risk of something going wrong with each step unless you will perform handheld shower installation.

Types of showers we can install

When purchasing an additional shower, it’s important to consider your water pressure and the type of domestic water system installed in your home. Let’s explore the most popular shower types that our professionals work with.

Electric Showers: The showers are connected to the mains and use cold tap water as their source. As the water passes through the heating element, it heats up quickly, providing instant hot water. To install such a shower, you will need electrical and plumbing knowledge. It’s best to leave the installation to our team of experts.

Showers with Electric Pumps: These showers are designed for areas with low or intermittent water pressure. They are powered by cold water tanks and operate similarly to regular electric showers. A small pump increases the water flow in areas with low pressure.

Manual Mixer Showers: The most well-known shower type, it combines hot and cold water from various sources to provide the desired temperature. The temperature is controlled through a thermostatic or manual cartridge. Mixer showers are built for gravity-fed systems, combination boilers, or pumps that pull water from both cold and hot tanks. Installing a new manual mixer shower can be challenging without the right knowledge and equipment.

Digital Showers: The main part of the shower enclosure is usually located in a different place from the shower area, for example, in the attic. The shower can be remotely controlled by a waterproof electronic controller, including the water flow and temperature inside the enclosure. Digital showers are more expensive due to their advanced features and technology.

Power Showers: These showers utilise gravity-fed water systems that draw hot and cold water from storage tanks. Their valve functions similarly to mixer showers, but a built-in pump increases water flow. Installing power showers is more complex and requires specialised tools and expertise compared to typical handheld shower installation.

How much does it cost to install a shower in Welland?

The bathroom shower installation cost may be limited if you have a fixed budget, but you can determine it more effectively if you understand what influences the price.

  • Type of shower enclosure. If you want to install a walk-in shower or another type that requires a pump or extra work to install the new fixture, it will increase labour costs.
  • Design and layout of the bathroom. Sometimes all you need to install a new shower is to remove the old one. But this is not often the case. Some showers require plumbing and cables that run through the walls. If you consult with our experts, you can make the most of the available space and possibly reduce unnecessary plumbing costs.
  • Other plumbing works. Depending on the area and location, certain showers may require additional plumbing work to work at their best. For example, a Moen shower installation almost always costs more due to its complex design.
