Posted on 29th November 2023 at 08:40
At inside outside kitchens, bathrooms & bedrooms, we pride ourselves on providing exceptional service that extends beyond the installation. Our commitment to customer satisfaction doesn't end with the completion of your project; it's a promise we uphold for many years to come.
In this article, we look at the steps we take after completing your project, as well as providing you with some practical tips and tricks to keep your installation in almost-new condition for many years to come.
Comprehensive Documentation and Instructions
Project Photography
We meticulously document every aspect of your installation, photographing the plumbing and wiring layouts, structural elements within walls, and product installations to verify compliance with manufacturer requirements.
Detailed Product Manuals
Every product we install comes with comprehensive installation and maintenance instructions. These manuals are carefully preserved and provided to you in a sealed envelope for future reference.
Product Demonstrations and Warranty Explanations
We take the time to demonstrate the proper use of each installed product and thoroughly explain the manufacturer's warranty requirements to ensure you fully understand how to maintain your new bathroom.
Utility Shut-Off Documentation
For added convenience, we capture photos of water shut-off valves and electrical switches, along with clear instructions on their operation, and send them to you via email. This readily accessible information proves invaluable in case of any service needs.
Beyond Installation: Fostering Long-Term Bathroom Care
Unlike many installation companies that rely on subcontractors, at inside outside kitchens, bathrooms & bedrooms we maintain an in-house team, ensuring continuity of service and accountability throughout the project and beyond. This commitment extends to providing expert guidance on maintaining your bathroom's pristine condition.
Essential Maintenance Tips
Gentle Cleaning Solutions
Embrace mild cleaning agents like soapy water or diluted white vinegar. Avoid harsh scale-removing solutions, as these can damage surfaces and invalidate warranties, making future cleaning more challenging.
Prompt Water Mark Removal
Water evaporation leaves behind a residue that can accumulate and create unsightly stains. Wipe away water marks promptly to maintain a spotless appearance.
Water Softener Installation (Consideration)
If hard water is an issue in your area, consider installing a water softener to minimize mineral deposits and prevent damage to your bathroom fixtures.
Airflow Optimisation
Proper ventilation is crucial for bathroom longevity. Open shower doors after use, crack a window, and utilize fans to promote air circulation and prevent moisture buildup.
Early Damage Reporting
If you notice any signs of damage, no matter how small, promptly take a clear photo and send it to us. Early detection allows us to address issues swiftly, preventing minor problems from escalating into major ones.
Durable Paint Choices
When decorating post-installation, opt for scrubbable and trade-grade paints over standard retail finishes. These resilient paints are better suited for the demanding bathroom environment.
Conclusion
Adhering to these simple yet effective maintenance guidelines will significantly extend the lifespan of your bathroom, ensuring it remains in pristine condition for years to come. Our commitment to customer satisfaction extends beyond installation; we partner with you to maintain the beauty and functionality of your bathroom for years to enjoy.
