Repair or replaceMarbellaEnglish speaking

Shower & tap repair in Marbella.

A dripping tap, a stiff mixer, or a shower that won't heat properly — one bathroom or several across a villa, we sort it in one visit.

Tip: tell us if it's a drip, no flow, a temperature issue, or a stiff handle.

Common shower & tap problems

Dripping tap

Almost always a worn washer or cartridge — quick to fix once we know the tap type.

Stiff to turn

Limescale build-up inside the valve, common on older fittings.

Shower won't hold temperature

Usually the thermostatic cartridge in the mixer needs replacing.

Weak flow from the showerhead

Mineral deposits clogging the nozzles, sometimes fixed with a descale.

Mixer leaking at the base

Worn seals inside the mixer body, needing a cartridge or full unit swap.

Different bathrooms wearing at different rates

Common on villas — the most-used bathroom fails first.

Taps & showers in Marbella — what to expect

On larger villas with several bathrooms, it's common for one shower or tap to fail well ahead of the others simply because it gets used more. If we're on site for one fixture, it's usually worth having a quick look at the rest, especially in a property that isn't checked often.

We always use quality replacement parts. In apartments and Old Town buildings especially, a cheap part tends to fail again within months, which ends up costing more in repeat visits than doing it properly the first time.

FAQ — shower & tap repair Marbella

One shower in the villa is fine, another isn't — why?+

Different bathrooms often have different amounts of use, and cartridges wear at different rates because of it. It's not unusual for one to fail well before the others.

Fixed a tap once already and it's dripping again — why?+

Either the part used wasn't quite right, or limescale has already worn the new seal. We fit quality parts to make repairs actually last.

My shower won't hold a steady temperature. Fixable?+

Yes, almost always the thermostatic cartridge inside the mixer. A known, common fault with a straightforward fix.

Can you match my existing tap brand?+

Where we can, yes — send a photo or the brand name and we'll match it or suggest a good replacement.
