How We Install Your New Bathtub — Step by Step
Step 1: Inspection and Planning
We visit your Maribyrnong home to measure your bathroom, check existing plumbing, and assess structural conditions. We identify any issues — old pipes, uneven floors, moisture damage — that affect installation. This step takes about an hour and helps us give you an accurate quote.
Step 2: Removal and Prep
We remove your old bathtub carefully and dispose of waste properly. Then we inspect the space underneath for hidden damage, mold, or plumbing problems common in Maribyrnong's older homes. If we find issues, we'll tell you before proceeding. This prep work prevents problems later.
Step 3: Support Frame Installation
We build a level, reinforced support frame for your new bathtub using materials suited to Maribyrnong's humid climate. The frame must be perfectly level — even slight slopes cause water pooling and damage. We use a laser level to ensure accuracy.
Step 4: Plumbing Connection
We connect hot and cold water supply lines with shut-off valves and test water pressure. We install drain and overflow pipes with the correct slope so water flows away from your Maribyrnong home's walls and foundation. All connections are tested for leaks before we seal anything.
Step 5: Waterproofing and Finishing
We apply professional-grade waterproofing membranes and sealants around the bathtub surround. These products are rated for Melbourne's humidity and seasonal changes. We finish with grout, caulk, and trim. Your bathtub is ready to use, and it's protected against Maribyrnong's moisture.
