Local Knowledge

Shower Repairs in Mokena Homes

Most shower valves in Mokena are from the 1990s and 2000s, and parts are usually still available.

Cartridge Repairs Through the Trim

On most valves from this era, a new cartridge fixes drips and temperature swings without opening the wall.

Upstairs Showers Over Finished Rooms

A small leak can stain the ceiling below. We find the source before opening anything.

Basement Showers

They drain to an ejector pump, so a slow basement shower may be a pump problem.

Fiberglass and Acrylic Units

Many Mokena bathrooms have one-piece tub and shower units. A crack in the base can leak into the ceiling below, and we can tell you whether it's the valve, the drain or the unit.
