Shower and bath plumbing covers everything from cartridge and mixing valve replacement to full rough-in and fixture installation for complete bathroom renovations. Older homes frequently have outdated single-handle valves without pressure-balancing protection, corroded shower flanges, and failing tub surround seals that allow water to penetrate behind tile. Birnie Plumbing & Drains handles all shower and bath plumbing work, from targeted repairs to complete installations.

How Our Showers and Baths Service Works

A clear, professional process every visit, every customer.

01

Identify the Issue

We diagnose the specific fault: leaking cartridge, dripping spout, running tub filler, failed mixing valve, or structural surround issue, before ordering any parts.

02

Source Quality Parts

Replacement cartridges, valves, and fixtures are sourced to match the manufacturer specification or upgraded to current-standard components.

03

Complete the Repair

Repair or replacement is completed with full access restoration. Trim, escutcheon, and finish surfaces returned to pre-work condition.

04

Test for Leaks

Full flow and temperature test confirms the repair is complete, the pressure balance valve is functioning, and there are no residual leaks.

05

Cleanup and Guarantee

Full cleanup of work area. Written workmanship guarantee on all labour and installed components.

Benefits of Professional Showers and Baths

Eliminates Water Waste From Drips

A dripping showerhead at one drop per second wastes over 10,000 litres per year. A correct repair stops waste immediately and permanently.

Prevents Subfloor and Wall Damage

Water escaping shower surrounds and tub bases saturates subfloor materials and framing. Early repair prevents the structural damage that develops silently.

Adds Pressure-Balancing Protection

Modern pressure-balancing valves prevent scalding when a toilet flushes or another tap is used, a significant safety improvement in older shower systems.

Correct Parts Sourced Every Time

We source manufacturer-matched cartridges and components, not generic substitutes that fail prematurely and require repeat service calls.

Full Renovation Rough-In Available

Birnie handles complete shower and bath rough-in for bathroom renovation projects: supply lines, drain connections, and all work to code.

Finish Surfaces Restored After Repair

Trim, escutcheons, and access panels are returned to pre-work condition. We leave the bathroom as we found it, minus the plumbing problem.

Workmanship Guaranteed

All shower and bath plumbing work is covered by our full workmanship guarantee on labour and installed components.
