- Connect flexible hose to shower arm with proper thread tape

How it works
Remove and prep
We unthread the old showerhead and clean the shower arm threads, removing any old tape or mineral deposits.
Install bracket and hose
We mount the slide bar or bracket (drilling into the wall if a slide bar is chosen), connect the hose to the arm, and attach the handheld head.
Test for leaks
We run the shower through all spray settings and check the arm fitting and hose connections for any drips.
Problems we fix
- Hose that kinks at the arm connection due to too-tight a bend radius
- Slide bar bracket mounted only in grout or tile glaze, not anchored to studs
- Old shower arm that is corroded and won't accept the new hose fitting cleanly
- Handheld unit that drips at rest because the diverter valve wasn't seated
Handheld Showerhead Install in Columbia — FAQ
Do I need a slide bar or can I use a fixed bracket?
A fixed bracket at one height works fine for most users. A slide bar lets you adjust height for different users or tasks and is worth the small extra cost for family bathrooms.
Will the handheld hose have enough pressure?
Standard handheld hoses reduce pressure slightly due to the added length. Most users don't notice the difference. If you already have low pressure, a handheld unit with a pressure-boosting head can help.
Can you install a combo fixed-plus-handheld unit?
Yes. Dual shower systems — with a fixed overhead and a handheld on the same arm or on a separate slide bar — are a popular upgrade we install routinely.
Handheld Showerhead Install across Columbia
Columbia's long, hot, humid summers are hard on homes — HVAC strain, swollen doors, deck and fence wear, and moisture around windows and caulk are all common. Older in-town neighborhoods bring hardwood floors, plaster and original millwork, while the Northeast and the Lake Murray side add newer builds with their own needs. Our pros are comfortable with both.
