Site Assessment
Before installation begins, our team will perform a thorough site assessment to evaluate your bathroom's layout and plumbing. This step ensures that the chosen soaking tub fits the designated space and that all existing plumbing meets installation requirements. We’ll also discuss your design preferences and any potential obstacles that may arise during the installation.
Removing the Old Tub
If you currently have an existing tub, our team will carefully remove it. This process involves disconnecting plumbing fixtures, draining any remaining water, and safely disposing of the old tub. We take care to minimize disruption to your bathroom and ensure that the surrounding area is protected during the removal.
Plumbing Adjustments
Once the old tub is removed, we will make any necessary plumbing adjustments to accommodate the new soaking tub. This may involve repositioning water supply lines, ensuring proper drainage, and installing any new fixtures required for the soaking tub. Proper plumbing is essential to ensure optimal performance and prevent leaks.
Floor Preparation
Preparing the floor is crucial for the installation of your soaking tub. Our team will ensure that the subfloor is level and secure, making any repairs as needed. We will also install a waterproof barrier to protect against moisture damage and enhance the longevity of your new tub.
Tub Installation
With the preparations complete, we will carefully position and install your new soaking tub. This step involves securing the tub to the floor, connecting plumbing, and ensuring that it is level. Our experienced team will take the utmost care to avoid any damage during this process, ensuring a seamless fit.
Finishing Touches
Once the tub is installed, we’ll focus on finishing touches. This includes sealing any gaps to prevent water leaks, installing fixtures, and ensuring everything is functioning properly. Our team will also clean up the area, leaving your bathroom looking pristine and ready for use.
Final Inspection
Before we conclude the project, we will conduct a final inspection to ensure that everything meets our high standards. We’ll check for proper drainage, test all fixtures, and ensure you are completely satisfied with the installation. Your peace of mind is our priority.
