Hi
Shower mix tap in one of the bathrooms is too sensitive. Even a millimeter of rotation makes it too hot or too cold. Photo attached. Any ideas on how to fix it.
I spoke to a plumber and he said the whole water pipeline needs to be replaced and will cost 4K.
The other bathroom upstairs doesn’t have this issue (even that is somewhat sensitive but not to this extent). I was thinking just replacing the mixer tap would fix this.
What do you guys think?
You can get a thermostatic mixer.
They mix the hot and cold lines to give you an exact temperature.
That said I don't know how easy it is to retrofit one into an existing wall.

Thanks, will look into it
Just wanted to provide an update for anyone else that’s interested in. We got it resolved by having a flow restrictor and temperature restrictor at the gas heater. A plumber installed it. Costed about 2k. Very happy with the result.
