Bathroom Plumbing

At MVP Plumbing, bathroom plumbing is one of the most frequent services we provide to homeowners throughout Trumbull and Fairfield County. Whether it’s a leaking showerhead, a toilet that won’t stop running, or a full-scale upgrade (remodel) to modern fixtures, we’ve seen and fixed it all. We combine years of experience with high-quality parts and attention to detail – so you can count on work that’s not only functional but done right the first time.

Common Bathroom Plumbing Problems

Some of the most common issues we tackle include leaky toilets, worn-out fill valves, and flappers that just don’t seal properly anymore. In most cases, repairs involve replacing just those internal components - no need to replace the whole toilet unless it’s very old or inefficient.

Leaking showerheads and tub spouts are another big one. Most of the time, the fix is a simple cartridge replacement. It’s a straightforward repair, but it makes a world of difference in water usage and comfort.

Bathtub and Shower Repairs

When it comes to bathtubs and showers, we handle everything from leaks to full conversions. A frequent issue we see is long delays in hot water reaching the bathroom. That’s often solved with a recirculating pump or a retrofit recirculation system, which delivers near-instant hot water without opening up walls or upgrading the hot water heater.

Leaks behind the wall from aging shower mixer valves are also something we routinely repair. And when it’s time to replace old fixtures, we always recommend products that are easy to maintain and built to last.

Bathroom Upgrades and Current Trends

We’ve seen a big shift toward freestanding tubs and walk-in shower stalls, especially in remodels. Homeowners are moving away from the traditional tub/shower combo and opting for sleek, modern spaces with separate shower enclosures. They are having us removing these tubs and replace them with a walk-in shower.

Dual-flush toilets and concealed trap toilets are also trending. These not only save water but offer a cleaner, streamlined appearance and easier maintenance. For many of our older clients, we install comfort-height toilets that make everyday use more comfortable.

Whether you’re upgrading for style, function, or accessibility, we’re here to help guide you through the best options for your space and budget.
