If your shower feels more like a drizzle than a proper shower, the water pressure suddenly feels too strong, or the pipes bang every time something shuts off, start with the problem that sounds most like what is happening in your home. We help homeowners in West Vancouver and North Vancouver sort out water pressure and valve problems properly.

Pressure problems can show up in different ways. You might have weak flow, pressure that feels too strong, pressure that changes on its own, a main shut-off valve you do not trust, or banging pipes when taps or appliances shut off. Start with the problem that sounds most like yours.
If the pressure problem has already caused leaking or visible water damage, you may also want to look at Leak Repairs.
Water pressure that is too high, too low, or all over the place can make everyday life annoying fast. We work out what is causing it and point you to the right fix.
If the shower barely wakes you up and filling a kettle feels like it takes forever, we check what is causing the weak pressure and explain the best way to sort it out.
If the pressure feels too strong, keeps changing, or seems harder on taps and fixtures than it should be, a failing PRV is often part of the problem.
If your main shut-off valve is stiff, seized, leaking, or just not something you would trust in an emergency, we can replace it properly.
If the pipes bang when a tap or appliance shuts off, we check what is causing the pressure shock and explain the right fix.
Pressure problems can also show up as leaking fixtures, stressed valves, or trouble elsewhere around the home. If that sounds familiar, these may help too:

Water pressure that is too high can be hard on taps, hoses, appliances, and the plumbing system itself. Water pressure that is too low can turn normal daily things like showering, washing up, or running more than one fixture at once into an unnecessary irritation.
