  • Some important questions

    Build the work-order

    The following questions will not only assist the crew in locating the correct bathroom and bathtub quickly if they are not meeting a jobsite contact-person, but will establish the exact bathtub in the house that is covered by the warranty.

    *Have you seen the refinishing project and jobsite?

    Avoid costly delays caused by mistakes and omissions in ordering refinishing projects.
    Mistakes and omissions in the ordering process can result in costly delays, e.g., rescheduling because of no access to the property or time in the schedule to obtain authorisation to revise the invoice or perform the revised project. Maybe there's some additional damage that you are not aware of or are responsible for.
    All of these questions will have to be answered eventually so the time you take today will avoid costly delays tomorrow.

    The purpose of this website and the order form is to avoid costly delays and charges caused by mistakes and omissions in the ordering process.
    We respect your position - You're not sure what the unit is made of: Maybe because it's never occurred to you that they are made of different materials, or that some materials can be stripped while others can't, or you may not even be in the same State as the house with the bathtub to be refinished.
    Please respect our position as well: we have limited time, labor, and resources - and when they're lost they can never be recovered.
    Stripping takes a full day, so both you and we need to schedule three full days...one for the stripping and two for the refinishing.
    Please, take your time.
