Replacing Showers for Hard Water Issues in Old Town, ME
Many Maine homeowners on wells use treatment systems such as neutralizers, filters, or softeners to protect their plumbing. Hard water can cause mineral buildup in showerheads, valves, and on surfaces, leading to reduced water pressure and a dingy appearance. If mineral scale has damaged your shower beyond repair, BKN Plumbing can replace affected components or the entire unit. We can also recommend solutions like water softeners to prevent future issues, helping your new shower in Old Town, ME keep its performance and looks for years to come.
Fiberglass Shower Unit Replacement in Old Town
Older fiberglass and acrylic units can crack, fade and leak at the base. We remove the old unit, check the framing and drain and install a new one-piece or multi-piece unit. Many homes have narrow doorways, so we often use multi-piece units that fit through. The result is a clean, long-lasting shower.
Shower Valve Replacement in Old Town
Old two- and three-handle shower valves often leak and lack anti-scald protection. We open the wall from the back or front, remove the old valve and install a modern pressure-balance or thermostatic valve. Where possible, we use a larger trim plate to cover the old opening. This upgrade improves safety and everyday comfort.
Tile Shower Replacement in Old Town, ME
Tile showers can fail when grout cracks or waterproofing breaks down. We handle the plumbing side of tile shower replacement, including valve, drain and pan. We work with your tile installer so waterproofing membranes are installed correctly. Modern systems like Schluter Kerdi are popular choices.
Showerhead and Trim Upgrade in Old Town, ME
If the valve is sound, replacing the showerhead and trim can refresh the look without opening the wall. We match trim kits to your existing valve brand and install new heads, handhelds and slide bars. Hard water clogs older heads fast, so we recommend models with easy-clean nozzles. This is the most affordable upgrade.
