Mountain Man Plumbing documented the eroded seat inside the old valve body after the Sandy, UT shower leak call.

We got a call from a homeowner in Sandy with a tenant who had lots of water leaking out of their shower—an absurd amount, basically would not shut off. It was an older Price Pfister three-handle shower valve, and she said a handyman had been working on it earlier. When we were dispatched out, we quickly determined that the rebuild job was no good.

The seat had never been changed over the years. The seat is the portion that seals against the leak and allows the stem to seat properly, and that was eroded away to almost nothing and stripped out of the valve body. She decided she had enough of this, so we went ahead and upgraded her to a Moen single-handle pressure-balance valve.

We carefully opened the tile with care, pulled the old three-handle body, and changed it out to the Moen. We reconnect to the existing hot, cold, tub, and shower piping, got the new valve set, installed new trim, restored water, and tested for leaks and proper hot and cold temperature control. That old valve was done for, and the new single-handle setup put solid shutoff and control back in the shower.

Super helpful and informative. Communicated well and was punctual!         Posted on Google        Nathan      Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tyler from Mountain Man Plumbing replaced my in-house main water shutoff valve and the pressure reducing valve (PRV) with a very practical new system that enables me to view the line pressure coming in and any drops in pressure easily. Very good looking workmanship.

Prior to the work Tyler came out to my home and provided an estimate on the work, and stuck to the estimate. He's been easy to work with, cleaned up after himself, and also allowed me to change an appointment close to my originally planned estimate appointment over the phone. The website is also easy to use and efficient for scheduling an estimate. Thank you!

I had a great experience with Mountain Man Plumbing. Tyler showed up right on time, was professional, and got everything taken care of faster than expected—finishing the entire job in less than a day. He replaced our water heater, took care of the valves, and installed a new expansion tank, all with great attention to detail.

Everything is working perfectly now, and the whole process was smooth and stress-free. Highly recommend Tyler and the team if you’re looking for reliable, efficient plumbing work!         Posted on Google        Dana      Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tyler was very professional, polite and honest. Instead of trying to sell me new parts or a whole new water heater he showed me that some of the heating elements just needed cleaned. I would recommend this company for anyone looking for honest help to get the right fix without getting ripped off.         Posted on Google        Kyle      Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Honest, thorough (caught a problem a couple people had missed), on time/reliable         Posted on Google        Barb      Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Efficient, clean, and knowledgeable.         Posted on Google        Wendy      Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tyler was great! Hard to find a plumber who preps for a service call like he did.  He asked questions before he came over to fix a shower valve so he could make sure he had the right parts for the fixture so he was as efficient as possible when he got here.   Communication was great prior to the service call and during.  Fixed everything I needed in a couple of hours for a very reasonable price.         Posted on Google        Ellen      Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service, fair pricing, quality work. I feel lucky to have found Tyler Nerdin at Mountain Man Plumbing!         Posted on Google        Karthik      Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Tyler was great. He kept his schedule and his work was flawless. Definitely knows his craft.         Posted on Google        Jon      Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great service. Tyler updated everything that had been missed with my old water heater, even unplugged my floor drain. Highly recommended.
