FAQs
How do I know itâs time to replace my old showerhead?
Common warning signs are constant dripping or leaks, visible mineral or rust buildup that wonât scrub off, weak or uneven spray, difficulty switching spray patterns, and finishes that are pitted, corroded, or out of style. If you notice any of these issuesâor if your showerhead is more than 10â15 years oldâan upgrade will improve performance and water efficiency.
What benefits will I see by upgrading to a modern showerhead?
Todayâs WaterSense-certified fixtures can cut water use by up to 30 %, which lowers both water and energy bills in Lookout Mountain. Modern heads also deliver better pressure through improved nozzle design, offer multiple spray settings (rain, massage, mist, etc.), feature antimicrobial or self-cleaning rubber tips that resist mineral buildup, and come in stylish finishes that refresh the look of your bathroom without a full remodel.
Which types of replacement showerheads do you install in Lookout Mountain homes?
We stock and install fixed single-spray heads, adjustable multi-spray heads, handheld units with slide bars, dual (fixed + handheld) combos, rainfall models, low-flow/high-efficiency heads, and thermostatic or pressure-balanced fixtures that maintain a steady temperature. Finishes include chrome, brushed nickel, oil-rubbed bronze, matte black, and more to coordinate with the rest of your bathroom hardware.
Can you replace my showerhead without tearing into walls or altering existing plumbing?
Yes. In most houses the shower arm protruding from the wall is threaded with a universal 1â2-inch NPT fitting, so we can simply remove the old head, inspect and re-tape the threads, and twist on the new fixture. Unless there is hidden pipe damage or you want to relocate the shower arm, no demolition is necessary and the job is completed from inside the shower stall.
How long does a typical showerhead replacement take, and will I be without water?
A straightforward swap usually takes 30â60 minutes, including set-up, removal, thread cleaning, installation, flow and leak testing, and cleanup. We only shut off water to the shower valveânever to the whole houseâand that interruption is brief. If youâre upgrading valves or adding a slide bar, allow 1â2 hours.
What will the service cost and what kind of warranty do you provide?
Most standard replacements in Lookout Mountain start around $125â$175 including labor, Teflon tape, and disposal of the old head. Premium or specialty fixtures, new valves, or finish-matched trim kits add to the price but are quoted up-front. All workmanship is backed by a one-year labor warranty, and the showerheads themselves carry the manufacturerâs limited lifetime warranty against leaks and finish defects.
