Stop Leaks Before Walls Stay Wet

Professional shower repair services in Marble Falls that restore function and prevent long-term damage.

When water drips behind the wall after every shower or the temperature jumps from cold to scalding mid-rinse, your day starts with frustration instead of clarity. Homeowners in Marble Falls often notice these issues after a valve begins to fail or a connection loosens over time. What begins as a small annoyance can quietly saturate drywall and insulation, creating conditions where mold thrives and repairs become far more involved.


Marble Falls Plumbing LLC handles shower repair by identifying the source of leaks, whether they originate from worn cartridges, cracked valve bodies, or deteriorated seals at fixture connections. We address low pressure caused by mineral buildup in lines and correct temperature imbalances by replacing faulty mixing valves. Drainage problems often stem from clogs in the trap or improper slope in the drainpipe, both of which we clear and adjust to restore proper flow. Each repair targets the underlying cause rather than masking symptoms.


If your shower in Marble Falls no longer performs the way it should, reach out to discuss what we can do to bring it back to reliable operation.

What Changes After the Repair Work Finishes

We begin by shutting off water to the shower and removing the trim and valve assembly to inspect the internal components. In Marble Falls homes with hard water, we often find cartridges coated in mineral deposits that restrict flow and prevent smooth temperature adjustment. Replacing these parts and cleaning out the valve body restores the balance you expect when you turn the handle.


After the work is complete, you will notice consistent water pressure from the showerhead, stable temperature throughout your shower, and no pooling water on the floor or ceiling stains in the room below. Drainage improves noticeably when clogs are cleared and the trap is resealed. The shower functions quietly, without the rattling or hissing that often signals air in the lines or a failing valve.


We also inspect adjacent plumbing to confirm no additional leaks are developing and test the repaired system under full pressure before closing the wall. If tile or access panels were removed, we guide you on what is needed for a clean finish. Our work stops water from traveling where it does not belong and gives you a shower that performs predictably every time you use it.

Questions That Come Up Before We Start

Most homeowners want to know what caused the problem, how long the repair will take, and whether hidden damage has already occurred. These questions help you understand what to expect and how we approach the work.


  • What causes a shower to leak behind the wall? Leaks behind the wall usually come from worn valve seals, cracked cartridges, or loose connections between the valve and supply lines. Over time, constant water pressure and temperature changes degrade these components, allowing water to escape into the wall cavity instead of flowing only through the showerhead.
  • How long does a typical shower repair take? Most repairs take between one and three hours, depending on whether we need to replace a cartridge, reseal a valve body, or access hidden plumbing. If we find additional damage behind the wall, we will explain what is needed before proceeding with any extra work.
  • Why does my shower temperature change suddenly during use? Sudden temperature shifts usually indicate a failing pressure-balancing valve or a cartridge that no longer regulates the mix of hot and cold water correctly. Replacing the cartridge restores stable temperature control and prevents the scalding or freezing bursts that make showers uncomfortable.
  • What happens if water has already damaged the wall? We inspect the wall cavity and framing during the repair to assess moisture damage. If we find saturated drywall or compromised studs, we will outline what needs to be dried, treated, or replaced to prevent mold growth and structural issues.
  • How do you fix low water pressure in a shower? Low pressure often results from mineral buildup inside the valve or showerhead, a partially closed shutoff valve, or a clogged aerator. We disassemble the valve, clean or replace the cartridge, and check supply lines to restore full flow throughout your shower in Marble Falls.
