Shower Head Only FAQs

Can I just replace the shower head?

Yes, you can. Most shower heads fit the same size pipe, so swapping them is easy.

Just turn off the water. Unscrew the old head. Clean the pipe threads. Wrap a little plumber’s tape around them.

Then screw on the new head. Hand-tight is usually fine, but you can use a wrench if it feels loose—just don’t force it.

It’s a quick and cheap job you can do yourself.

Do all shower heads fit the same in Australia?

Most shower heads in Australia use the same 1/2-inch fitting. This makes them easy to change and they usually fit straight on.

If your bathroom is old or has different fittings, it’s a good idea to check the size before buying a new one.

How often should you change a shower head?

Most shower heads need to be replaced every 6 to 12 months. Over time, minerals from the water build up inside. This makes the spray weaker and the pressure uneven. Germs can also grow inside the head.

If the spray looks weak, the pressure feels off, or you see clogs, it’s best to change it sooner.

What is the cost to replace a shower head?

A simple shower head costs about $20 to $50. Models with more settings or special designs can cost a lot more, sometimes over $1000.

If you put it in yourself, that’s all you’ll pay. If you call a plumber, you’ll need to add around $70 to $200 for the work, depending on the job and where you live.

Is it worth upgrading a shower head?

Yes, it is. A new shower head can give better water pressure and more spray options. It can also save water.

Over time, this can cut your bills. It can also make your bathroom look new and feel nicer.
