Your licensed plumber inspects the shower valve, supply lines, fixtures, and drain, identifies the specific cause, and provides written pricing before the repair work starts.

Your plumber completes the work, tests the shower through full hot-and-cold cycles, and leaves the bathroom the way it was found aside from the problem being resolved.

The Tech arrived on time, quickly figured out the problem with my AC and fixed within an hour. Pricing reasonable and professional service. Highly recommend!
Cruise was great! He addressed our AC issue quickly and professionally.
Weโ€™ve always been satisfied with McAllister and our recent experience since the merger has not changed that. We needed a new condenser for the A/C and they had a cost effective solution and were able to install it quickly.
Very efficient and on time
Princeton Air condition was extraordinary!! I received a very fair quote immediately after Inspection of my HVAC systemby their talented technician. Their technicians were prompts, professional, and polite. They installed a new system with precision and followed up Professionally. Totally proud to work with Princeton.!!
Ryan G came by and provide tips and recommendations so thorough and with full clarity that I believe will benefit in the long haul. Because of this, I was confident to re-sign up for their maintenance program. He was a true professional who is highly knowledgeable and enthusiastic with the work that he is called to do.
Jose and Corey were a great team and genuinely seemed to care about solving our issues.
I had A/C installed in May, but waited to write a review to see how effective the units can be once it's hot out. Now that I've gone through a couple high temperature days where I turned the mini splits on, I can post a review that I am completely satisfied with the installation by Princeton Air Conditioning and the ease of usage of units. I also will add that it was a pleasure to have Mike C. and Christian J. on the job; they, along with the crews that were on site over the course of the two days, were professional, communicative and upfront. I'd recommend this company to anyone looking for services.
Professional and friendly staff
Air conditioning wasn't working and they came out and got it fixed within a day. Ryan did a great job making sure everything was up and running quickly.
The job was done smoothly and efficiently and right on time
Ryan G got our old air conditioner working again quickly during a bad heat wave and, when we were ready, he explained all our options very well and laid the groundwork to make it easy for us to have installed a new air conditioner. Plus he rescued our cat three times when our cat tried to get out through the garage. He was very kind to all our pets and to us. Thank you, Ryan G!
Dominic was extremely pleasant, professional, and thorough,. He was also quite efficient. He quickly diagnosed the situation and was able to correct it. He also took the time to patiently explain my thermostat to me. Then he signed me up as a member. So heโ€™s a pretty good sales guy too!
However, I then set up an appointment for maintenance and twice Princeton Air canceled me. Iโ€™m now set up for maintenance the end of June. And thatโ€™s after they tried to set me up the end of July and I complained.And this is after Dominic signed me up as a member. Thereโ€™s something very wrong with their business model and I do not consider this good customer service. I will likely have to look for a different serviceโ€ฆ. something more responsive.
Tech (Alex) was on time, courteous, very professional. He let me know that, because of my contract w/McCallister, I would have no extra payment for the part needed.
The repair man, Dominic came out this morning to inspect our AC system. He was extremely knowledgeable, incredibly kind, and explained things very well. I work in construction and can tell you that Dominic is one of the best Iโ€™ve seen in years. Princeton air is very lucky to have him as an employee as he is SUCH AN ASSET to your company.

I also want to give a special thanks to Leah the customer service representative I spoke to. Also extremely kind and helpful. I have had the worst two weeks of my life and two strangers taking the time to kind made my heart smile. Thanks again Leah and Dominic. Chuck our Project Manager has been very kind and knowledgeable through this process as well. I am grateful for the people who work here as they made this pretty easy. Thank you all so much.
Latrell Romulus from Princeton Air did a great job of making sure my AC units were working properly. He was thorough and knowledgeable, and communicated potential areas of concern in a very clear manner.
Great job ! Very knowledgeable and informative. He made sure I was aware of any issues and explained it thoroughly! I look forward to having him again !!

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.

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

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.
