Shower Trim Kits

Shower trim is the part of the shower you see and touch every day: the handle, the faceplate, the shower head, the hand shower and the tub spout. The trims in this catalogue are the styles and finishes we install most often in Vancouver bathroom renovations, chosen to pair with dependable valves behind the wall.

The most important decision is the valve, because it is sealed inside the wall once the tile goes on. A pressure-balance valve keeps the temperature steady when someone runs water elsewhere in the home. A thermostatic valve lets you set an exact temperature and control volume separately, and is the better choice for showers with more than one outlet.

• Finish: chrome, brushed nickel, matte black and brushed gold are the most requested, and should match the faucet and accessories.
• Outlets: decide early whether you want a rain head, a hand shower, body sprays or a tub filler, since each needs its own plumbing.
• Compatibility: trims only fit the valve they were designed for, so both are ordered together.
• Water pressure: older buildings and some condos limit which shower systems will perform well.

We coordinate the valve, trim and waterproofing as one scope so nothing has to be opened up later. Learn more about shower valve installation and bathroom renovations in Vancouver, or book a discovery call to plan your shower.
