The technician, William Delgado was prompt in arrival to perform annual furnace maintenance. He was polite, professional, knowledgeable and thorough in his work.
Neim Colaku was the Princeton Air technician who worked on our two AC units. He was excellent, very knowledgeable , very professional and a pleasure to work with. He inspected the two AC units and did fine tuning. He noticed that the two compressor units were not level- an excellent observation. He went beyond the call of duty, left to get rubber inserts to level the units. Came back with the rubber inserts and leveled the two units. I think his commitment to excellence in service, his keen observation skills and his dedication to do his best are very commendable qualities. If there is a rating more than 5, I will gladly select it. Thank you Neim and we are grateful for your excellent work.

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.

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.
