I agree with above, these are very easy to install if you are getting the style that clips are the shower head, if you are looking at the type with a separate hand held shower head and the normal shower head, you may need to have someone with experience and tools to drill the tile for the mount for the hand held shower head. IMHO, go to Lowe's, Home Depot, or ACE and find the new shower head that you want. Fittings are standard, then ask or search for a handyman to do the install. I do my own work, so i do not have any experience to recommend a handyman.

If you do get the kind that requires drilling into the wall, a plumber probably will not even do it. I would recommend the clip on type. If you decide to do it yourself, it just screws on to the existing pipe. But, make sure you do not over tighen the shower head or it will leak, or even crack. Use teflon tape on the pipe threads.
