Direct Answers
Showers & Tubs FAQ
Why will the shower not stop dripping?
A worn cartridge, seat, seal, or valve body can allow water through after the handle is closed.
Why does the temperature change suddenly?
A failing pressure-balance cartridge, supply issue, crossover, or simultaneous demand can affect control.
Can the valve be replaced without removing all the tile?
Often a controlled opening or remodel plate can limit tile work, but access and valve configuration determine the method.
