Minimal hot water in the shower

Job description

Plumbing Repair North New Brighton, Christchurch

Published on 24th July 2026

I have had the hot water cylinder element and thermostat replaced but the shower is not producing the pressure of hot water that it used to prior to replacing the above. In fact the hot water is not as hot it used to be, this has been noticed when i am doing the dishes. Also the tap under the cylinder has a slow drip. The electrician who replaced the thermostat and element did suggest that if there is a drip i will need a plumber.
I also would like the taps in the kitchen replaced as they are pretty dated and sometimes needs a some effort to stop water dripping

"Very prompt and honest. Replaced my kitchen taps and hot water tap. Great communication in regards to what may be needed still as the water temperature was not up to what it should be so suggested bringing back the electrician. Will be contacting Martin again for any plumbing issues"
