Why Professional Installation Prevents Leaks

Most water issues occur because of improper installation. Unfortunately, many contractors are unfamiliar with the specific sealing requirements of walk in tubs or barrier free showers. Our certified installers are trained specifically on these systems.

In addition, installers must complete factory training and pass certification exams to qualify. Because of this process, our installation teams understand the exact requirements needed to maintain the integrity of the tub or shower unit.

Quality Control Inspection After Every Installation

Every installation must pass a post-installation quality control audit. This step protects homeowners and ensures the system functions exactly as intended.

During this inspection, installers verify proper sealing, drainage, and system operation. In addition, the unit is filled and tested to confirm proper water containment and door performance. Only after passing inspection is the installation considered complete.

Important Coverage Limitations

Our Leak Protection Installation Guarantee applies specifically to the installed walk in tub or roll in shower system and the connections performed during installation by our certified installers.

However, the guarantee does not apply to plumbing systems or structural conditions that are outside the scope of the installation. Examples include existing household plumbing failures, pre-existing water damage, structural movement, or modifications performed by other contractors.

Additionally, this guarantee applies only to installations completed by Aging Safely Baths certified installation teams. Supply-only purchases where customers use independent installers are not covered under this installation guarantee.

Does a walk in tub leak?

When installed correctly, walk in tubs are designed to be fully sealed. The door systems and gaskets are engineered to prevent leaks during normal operation.

What causes leaks in walk in tubs?

Most leaks occur due to improper installation, incorrect sealing procedures, or untrained contractors working on specialty systems.

Are walk in tub doors waterproof?

Yes. Modern walk in tubs use compression sealing door systems designed to create a watertight seal during operation.

Do roll in showers leak?

When properly installed, barrier free showers are designed with specialized waterproofing and drainage systems to prevent leaks.

Why is professional installation important?

Professional installers understand manufacturer specifications and waterproofing procedures required for these specialized systems.

Do you test the tub after installation?

Yes. Every installation is tested to confirm proper sealing, drainage, and system functionality before completion.

Does the guarantee apply if I install the tub myself?

No. The installation guarantee applies only when our certified installers complete the installation.

What if my home plumbing fails?

The installation guarantee does not cover existing plumbing systems outside the scope of the installation work.

How long does installation take?

Many installations can be completed in one day depending on project complexity and site conditions.

What Homeowners Should Know About Leak Protection Before Buying

Many homeowners ask the same question before purchasing a walk in tub or roll in shower: “Will it leak?” That concern is understandable. After all, these are water-based systems installed inside one of the most important rooms in the home. Fortunately, modern walk in tubs and handicap showers are engineered to perform reliably when the products are installed correctly and tested carefully before the project is completed.

Even so, product quality alone is not enough. Installation quality matters just as much. A good unit installed the wrong way can create unnecessary service calls, customer frustration, and confusion about what is or is not covered. Therefore, this page is designed to explain our leak protection standards in plain language so customers know what to expect.

At Aging Safely Baths, our focus is not just selling a tub or shower. We also focus on proper installation procedures, manufacturer guideline compliance, quality control inspections, and realistic communication. That approach helps reduce problems, improves customer satisfaction, and supports better long-term performance.

Why Leak Protection Starts with the Right Product and the Right Installation Team

Walk in tubs use specialized door systems, seals, and water containment features. Likewise, roll in showers depend on proper slope, waterproofing, drainage, and pan installation. Because of that, these systems should not be treated like generic bathroom replacements. They require attention to detail.

That is also why we encourage homeowners to review our walk in tub models and handicap shower options before making a decision. Choosing the right product for the space, mobility needs, and installation conditions is one of the best ways to reduce future issues.

In addition, customers who are still comparing layouts and features should review our Walk In Tub Guide and Roll In Shower Guide. These resources explain what matters most before installation day arrives.

Realistic Expectations Help Protect Everyone

A strong leak protection guarantee should be clear, not vague. For that reason, we explain both what is covered and what is outside the scope of coverage. We stand behind the installed unit and the installation work completed by our certified team according to manufacturer requirements. However, no responsible company should promise coverage for every plumbing condition, structural issue, or third-party modification that exists outside the installation scope.

This clarity helps serious customers. It reduces misunderstandings. It also helps homeowners make better decisions about whether they want full professional installation or supply-only delivery. For customers who choose supply-only orders and use their own installers, the installation process is outside our direct control. Therefore, this installation guarantee does not apply to those jobs.

If you want the strongest level of installation oversight, quality control, and accountability, we recommend working with our factory certified installers whenever available in your area.
