On time service , respectful of property. I have had the same technician for the last few visits and I feel he really knows my property and that is so helpful. Wonderful man
We have the gold plan which includes two maintenance visits per year. The technician Cory looked at the whole system and installed a new filter in the air handler. I was afraid the annual filter replacement was no longer included in the plan.

Routine maintenance of air conditioner for upcoming season.
Jorge did an excellent job of diagnosing the problem with our furnace. In addition to relying on his own expertise, he reached out to the Carrier tech support to see if they agreed with his diagnosis. At each step of the way, he carefully explained what he was doing and why he was doing it. He is the best HVAC tech that I have encountered since we moved into our house.
Was very pleasant, went about his work quietly and explained everything clearly.

While I was in the process of selling my house recently, a municipal inspector examined the water hearted installation and confirmed that it was done correctly and met all standards; however I still needed to obtain a formal permit for the unit. After making several inquires, I encountered some companies that were unresponsive, while others even misrepresented the facts – falsely claiming that my water heater was non-compliant and needed to be replaced. This was despite the fact that my current unit met all standards, was only six years old and was functioning perfectly – and I had already expressed my willingness to pay the necessary fees to secure the proper documentation. Then I reached out to this company in Princeton. Not only did I receive an immediate response but they also sent someone (Mr. Wilver) the very next day to inspect the installation. They agreed to assist with obtaining the rerquired permit for a very reasonable fee. My wife and I were truly impressed. Furthermore, the company excels at communication: they replied promptly to my emails to schedule the appointment and on the day of the service, they send a text message to let us know when the technician would arrive. When the schedule can be earlier, they notified me and offered the opportunity. The entire process was smooth, efficient, and resulted in a great outcome for everyone involved. I highly recommend this company- they are truly trustworthy.

We selected Princeton Air after receiving bids from four different contractors to replace a failed HVAC system. They worked harder than everyone else to earn our business. They handled the entire process of having the no interest payments added to our PSE&G monthly bill. The system was installed on a Thursday and when the A/C compressor was discovered to be noisier than we expected, they were back on the following Monday to replace it. No pushback. No hassles.

Shower Problems We Diagnose and Repair

Shower issues usually fall into one of several recognizable categories.

Princeton Air’s licensed plumbers have addressed every common residential shower failure that comes up across Mercer County.

You see the showerhead dripping when the shower is off. A dripping head almost always means the valve cartridge inside the shower handle has worn, producing a slow bleed of water past the seal. Your plumber replaces the cartridge with the correct part for your valve model.

You can’t get the shower hot enough, or the temperature jumps around during use. Temperature control issues trace to the mixing valve, the cartridge inside a single-handle valve, or scale buildup in older fixtures. Your plumber diagnoses the specific component and restores reliable temperature operation.

You notice weak flow that wasn’t there before. Pressure loss at a shower is often a clogged showerhead from mineral buildup, a restricted valve cartridge, a kinked or failing supply line, or a broader pressure issue in the home. Your plumber tests through the possibilities and identifies the specific cause.

You see water pooling at your feet during a shower or notice water draining long after the shower is off. Drain problems in showers are almost always hair and soap buildup in the trap, though occasionally the issue is further down the line. Your plumber clears the blockage properly rather than relying on chemical treatments.

You see water stains on the ceiling below the shower or signs of moisture in the wall. Shower pan failures, valve leaks inside the wall, and drain line issues all produce these symptoms. Your plumber locates the actual source with the minimum wall or ceiling access needed for the repair.

You find the shower handle stuck, hard to turn, or not controlling water properly. Handle and valve problems trace to worn cartridges, broken stems, or corrosion that has compromised the valve internals. Your plumber replaces what’s failed and restores normal handle operation.

Why Homeowners Trust Princeton Air With Shower Repair

The right plumbing team makes shower repair clean, fast, and lasting.

Princeton Air has served homeowners throughout Mercer County for decades, and shower work is a consistent part of what we do.

Your shower is repaired by a licensed plumber with specific experience on valve work, which is where most shower problems actually live. The license is the baseline; the experience is what makes the repair hold up.

You get the repair completed on the first visit in most cases because our trucks stock cartridges and common parts for the major valve brands, including Delta, Moen, Kohler, and Grohe.

Your bathroom is a finished space, and our plumbers treat it that way. Drop cloths, protected surfaces, and careful cleanup are part of how the visit ends.

You can reach Princeton Air for plumbing work and also for HVAC, electrical, and indoor air quality. When a shower issue touches bathroom ventilation or creates related concerns, one team handles the full scope.

Some shower valves and fixtures are worth repairing and some aren’t. Your plumber gives you the honest economics so your decision matches the actual situation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does my shower drip when it’s off?

A dripping showerhead with the shower turned off almost always indicates a worn valve cartridge in the handle mechanism. The fix is a cartridge replacement, which is a small repair your plumber can usually complete in under an hour.

Is it normal for shower pressure to drop over time?

Gradual pressure loss is usually mineral buildup accumulating in the showerhead or the valve cartridge. Sudden pressure loss points to a failed cartridge, a kinked supply line, or a problem upstream. Either way, the situation is repairable, and a plumber can identify which cause applies.

How can I tell if my shower is leaking inside the wall?

Warning signs include water stains on the ceiling below the shower, musty smells in the bathroom, soft spots on walls adjacent to the shower, or a water bill that’s higher than usual. A plumber can confirm whether the leak is coming from the shower or another source.

Do you repair shower valves from all manufacturers?

Yes. Princeton Air’s licensed plumbers work on every major residential shower valve brand installed throughout New Jersey, including Delta, Moen, Kohler, Grohe, Price Pfister, and the older brands still found in many homes.

Can I wait to repair a slow shower drain?

Slow drains usually progress to fully clogged drains, often at inconvenient times. Addressing the drain while water still moves is faster and cleaner than addressing it after a full backup. A simple drain cleaning is typically a short service call.
