This job is a great showcase of how Water Tight Canberra balances professionalism, skill, and genuine customer care on every visit.

Problem

The client reported two key issues:

Shower noise problem – Each time the shower was turned on, a loud vibration travelled through the pipework.
Laundry tap upgrade – The existing flick mixer in the laundry needed replacing with a new customer-supplied unit.

Both problems were disruptive: the shower noise suggested a water flow issue, while the outdated mixer tap was due for modernisation.

Assessment

Brayden conducted a full inspection and quickly identified the root causes:

The shower noise was traced to a water saver component and a breach piece contributing to vibration within the pipework.
The laundry flick mixer required uninstalling the old unit and installing the client’s chosen new fixture.

Before starting, Brayden explained the situation and the options clearly, ensuring the client understood both the cause and the solution. This communication style was specifically recognised in the 5-star review.

What We Did

Resolved the noisy shower – Brayden uninstalled the breach piece and removed the water saver, eliminating the vibration problem.
Installed new laundry mixer – The customer-supplied flick mixer was fitted, securely sealed, and tested for smooth operation.
Final testing & handover – Both shower and mixer were checked for correct function, with the client shown the completed work.

Materials & Standards

Customer-supplied flick mixer – installed to manufacturer’s specifications.
Water saver adjustment – removal carried out in line with plumbing best practices to restore balanced flow.

All work complied with AS/NZS 3500 standards for plumbing and drainage, ensuring durability, safety, and water efficiency.

Results

The outcomes were immediate and noticeable:

The shower operated smoothly and quietly, free from vibration.
The laundry gained a sleek, modern flick mixer for everyday use.
The client was delighted, praising Brayden’s respect, communication, and efficiency.

“My job was completed efficiently. Thanks.”

This 5-star feedback highlights the strength of Water Tight Canberra’s team: skilled trades backed by exceptional customer service.
