Handheld Shower Installation

Handheld showerheads on slide bars or wall mounts, installed at a comfortable height with a hose that reaches where you need.

A handheld shower is one of the most useful additions to any bathroom. It makes rinsing hair easy, helps with cleaning the shower, works for children and pets and is essential for anyone who showers seated. Handhelds mount on a wall bracket or a slide bar, which lets you set the height. They can be the only head or work alongside a fixed head with a diverter. Many Nashville homeowners add a handheld during an accessibility upgrade, and many keep adding it to remodels because it simply makes daily use easier.

We help you decide where the handheld mounts: near the valve, at the bench or on a slide bar. We install a wall elbow or outlet with solid backing, set the bar at a comfortable height and connect a hose of the right length. If you want to keep a fixed head, we install a diverter so you can switch easily. For accessible showers, we set the controls and bar within reach from a seated position. We test the flow and make sure the hose does not kink or reach awkwardly.

Slide bar flexibility

A slide bar lets people of different heights set the head where they want it.

Reach from a seat

We place the handheld and controls within easy reach of a bench, which matters for safety and comfort.

Solid backing

Wall outlets and bars need blocking behind the tile so they stay firm.

Diverter options

A diverter allows you to switch between a fixed head and the handheld without extra plumbing.

Not significantly when properly installed, though diverters add a little restriction.
