SIX7 PLUMBING
SIX7 Plumbing Shower Repair Colombo
Weak flow, dripping mixers, loose rails — the fault is almost always the mixer internals or the wall seals, and we strip, descale or replace, then re-torque the rail while we're in there.
T&Cs apply — /pricing/ & /disclaimer/
Diagnose
Strip the mixer and identify scale or seal failure.
Repair
Replace internals, renew seals, re-torque the rail.
Test
Full flow and temperature test before sign off.
Scale seizes mixer internals the same way it kills tap cartridges; wall seals shrink and weep into the cavity for months before the other side of the wall shows it. Temperature swings mid-shower are a mixer cartridge, not your geyser — we check the cheaper one first and say which it is.
Rails pull away when the anchors are wrong for the tile substrate; re-anchoring properly is part of the visit, not an extra. Scale damage itself is maintenance, like descaling a kettle — our workmanship on the repair is shielded for 6 months, the water chemistry is yours.
6-Month Shield
Every repair is backed by a 6-month workmanship warranty.

"Mixer repairs end with a dry-run test and hot-cold balance checked — no drip, no stiff handle, no call-back."

Prevent Scale
- •Wipe the mixer dry after use to slow scale buildup on the cartridge.
- •If you are in a hard-water area, consider a water softener upstream.
- •Prevention is cheaper than repair — always.
Check the Rail
- •Tighten rail screws every few months — do not wait for it to sag.
- •A loose rail damages tiles and creates leak points.
- •Regular maintenance prevents bigger problems.
