Shower Valve Installation in Northern Virginia & DC

Water that swings from scalding to freezing, a handle that spins without doing much, or a mixer dripping behind the tile. We fit pressure-balanced and thermostatic shower valves across Northern Virginia and the District, soldered or PEX, with access cut cleanly and the figure agreed before the wall is opened.

Included on every visit

Common questions about shower valve installation

What does a shower valve replacement run here?
A straightforward pressure-balanced swap with rear access starts around $545. Cutting through tile, or stepping up to a thermostatic or multi-outlet valve, moves it higher. Build your own figure above.
Do you have to break the tile?
Not if there is a closet or drywall behind the wall, which covers most of the townhomes here. Where tile is the only way in, we cut the smallest opening we can and can fit an access panel afterwards.
Pressure-balanced or thermostatic?
Pressure-balanced meets code and stops the scald when someone flushes. Thermostatic holds an exact temperature and is worth it for larger showers or multiple heads.
How long does it take?
Two to four hours for a typical swap. Tile cutting, a rebuilt access panel, or copper that has to be resoldered in a tight bay can push it toward a full day.
