Helpful Tips for You
Make the most of your tub remodel with these practical tips:
Clear the Area Before Work Begins
Prepare by removing any bathroom accessories, toiletries, and other items around the tub area. This helps ensure a smooth and efficient installation process.Consider Long-Term Accessibility
If you plan to stay in your home long-term, consider adding grab bars or selecting an accessible tub design for easier entry and exit.Choose Low-Maintenance Materials
Opt for stain-resistant finishes and easy-to-clean materials for your tub and surrounding tiles. This will save you time and effort in the long run.Ventilation Matters
Proper ventilation reduces moisture buildup, protecting your new tub from mold and mildew. If your bathroom lacks adequate ventilation, we can help install or upgrade your bathroom fan.Invest in Quality Fixtures
Quality faucets and showerheads not only look great but last longer and reduce the chance of leaks. Choose finishes that match your design theme and are resistant to water spots.Regularly Inspect Seals
After installation, check the sealant around your tub every few months to ensure it remains intact. Reapplying sealant as needed can prevent costly water damage over time.
Maintenance and Aftercare
To keep your remodeled tub looking and functioning like new, follow these maintenance tips:
Weekly Cleaning
Use a gentle, non-abrasive cleaner to wipe down your tub, preventing soap scum buildup. Avoid harsh chemicals that can erode finishes.Monthly Drain Inspection
Check your drain monthly to clear any blockages and maintain smooth water flow. This helps avoid plumbing issues that can disrupt your tub’s functionality.Avoid Harsh Scrubbing
To protect your tub’s surface, use soft sponges instead of rough scrubbers, which can scratch and damage the finish.Seal Checks Every 6 Months
Review the sealant around the tub every six months, especially in high-use households. Resealing as necessary prevents water from seeping into the walls or floor.Schedule Annual Maintenance Checks
Consider an annual professional inspection to spot and fix any minor issues early, ensuring your tub remains safe, functional, and beautiful.
