Shower Head Leaks, What should you do ?

If your shower heads still leaks when you convert off your bath or tub device, You may need to contact a licensed expert plumbing technician in the Lakewood Ranch area to service your shower or tub device.



Before you contact a Texas plumbing technician, here are a few things to check:

1) Have you changed your shower heads to a rain go or other large head? These styles hold a lot of residual water that may cause you to think your device does not convert off completely. If the device is functioning properly, the water will stop dripping after one or two minutes.

2) Think back to when the device was new. It probably worked very sleek and easy. If it takes force to convert your device on, or it is difficult to take in and out, it needs servicing. Over time, because the water in Texas and Bradenton has lime and calcium nutrients in it, these nutrients create calcium in the water. This leaves deposits on the important mechanisms of your valves. This causes your shower faucets to gradually freeze up and not work as sleek as it used to. This happens gradually over time. the change is so gradual, that you don’t notice it, until the faucets does not convert off or you can’t twist it or take it.


3) Have your Texas Plumber or your Bradenton Plumber examine all of your shower faucets when he comes to your house. As an experienced he will know how the device is supposed to feel and can make you aware of any potential issues.

4) You will Love Your Plumber if he gives you an alternative to calcium in the water, which is smooth water. Soft water will save a little money on future plumbing repairs.
