New Shower Installation & Upgrades
When a shower is beyond repair, or you’re upgrading your bathroom, I offer a full shower installation service throughout Bromley and the wider BR1–BR8 area.
I can install:
​
-
Thermostatic mixer showers
-
Electric showers (working alongside a qualified electrician where needed)
-
Bar mixer showers
-
Rainfall and multi‑head shower systems
I can replace an existing unit on a like‑for‑like basis or help you switch to a different type of shower, subject to water pressure and pipework.
Whether you’re renovating a bathroom in Beckenham, updating an en‑suite in Petts Wood or modernising a family bathroom in Hayes, I’ll ensure all connections are secure and the finished installation is neat and reliable.
Shower Enclosures, Trays & Sealing
A watertight shower isn’t just about the unit itself. Enclosures, trays and seals all play a role in preventing leaks. As part of my shower plumbing services in Bromley, Hayes, West Wickham, Beckenham and surrounding areas, I can:
​
-
Replace cracked or damaged shower trays
-
Reseal trays and enclosures with high‑quality silicone
-
Check and improve waste connections to prevent slow drainage and smells
-
Advise on ventilation and moisture control to reduce mould and mildew
If you’re refurbishing a bathroom in Bromley, we can work alongside your tiler or bathroom fitter, or manage the plumbing side as part of a wider project.
Pumps and Pressure Issues
Low water pressure can make even the best shower feel underwhelming. In some Bromley properties, especially older homes or those with loft tanks, a pump may be used to boost shower performance.
I can:
​
-
Diagnose issues with existing shower pumps in homes
-
Replace faulty or noisy pumps
-
Advise on suitable pump options where pressure is consistently poor
-
Ensure pipework and electrical provisions are appropriate for any new pump
I’ll always consider the overall plumbing system in your property to make sure any solution is safe, compliant and effective.

​
-

Any limitations caused by your existing plumbing layout or water pressure
