Bathtub or jacuzzi damage risks during shipping

Shipping and installation are critical moments for a bathroom upgrade. While manufacturers and couriers strive for perfect delivery, baths and Jacuzzis can suffer dents, cracks, or alignment issues if mishandled or improperly installed.

Common causes include improper packaging, rough handling, pallet instability, and improper fit during installation. Water- and impact-related damage may not be immediately obvious, and some issues only appear after the unit is in use.

What to look for after delivery

Inspect the exterior for dents, cracks, or chipped enamel. Check the tub edges, mounting points, and plumbing connections for looseness or corrosion. Run the faucet and drainage system to ensure there are no leaks or misalignments. If you notice any defect, report it to the seller or delivery team promptly and document with photos.
