1. How do you prevent the wood from leaking or rotting?
At ANDREZZI, we utilize advanced marine-grade sealing techniques and proprietary multi-layer protective coatings. This deep-penetration treatment completely seals the wood, making it 100% waterproof, resistant to rot, mold, and mildew, and preventing the wood from warping or splitting over time.

2. How do I clean and maintain an ANDREZZI wooden bathtub?
Maintenance is surprisingly simple!
• Do: Wipe the tub down with a soft microfiber cloth and a mild, non-abrasive soap after use.
• Don’t: Use harsh chemicals, bleach, or abrasive scrubbing pads, as these can damage the protective finish.

3. Does a wooden bathtub hold heat well?
Yes, exceptionally well! Wood is a natural insulator. An ANDREZZI wooden bathtub retains water temperature significantly longer than traditional acrylic, porcelain, or cast-iron tubs. This means you can enjoy a longer, warmer soak without constantly adding hot water.

4. Can I use bath salts, oils, or bubble baths?
Absolutely. Our specialized protective coating shields the wood from oils, bath bombs, and bubble baths. However, we recommend avoiding heavily dyed products that could potentially stain any surface if left sitting for extended periods, and always rinse the tub with clean water after your bath.

5. What types of wood do you use, and are they sustainably sourced?
We meticulously select premium hardwoods known for their durability and stunning grain patterns, including Teak, Walnut, American Cherry, and Cedar. Sustainability is core to our ethos; all of our timber is responsibly sourced from certified, sustainably managed forests.

6. Can the bathtub be customized to fit my specific bathroom layout?
Yes, we specialize in bespoke craftsmanship. Because every ANDREZZI tub is made to order, we can customize the dimensions, wood type, finish, and even the shape to perfectly complement your bathroom design and plumbing requirements.

7. Is it safe to install an ANDREZZI tub on an upper floor? (Are they heavy?)
Surprisingly, our wooden bathtubs are often lighter than cast-iron or stone resin alternatives when empty. However, because a filled tub holds a significant volume of water, we always recommend consulting with your contractor or structural engineer to ensure your floorjoists can support the standard weight of a filled bathtub.

8. How long does it take to manufacture and deliver a tub?
Because each bathtub is handcrafted with precision, our standard production lead time is typically 6 to 8 weeks, depending on the complexity of the design and wood availability. Shipping times vary by destination, and we provide tracked, insured freight shipping worldwide.

9. What kind of warranty do you offer?
We stand firmly behind our craftsmanship. Every ANDREZZI bathtub comes with a 5-year limited warranty covering defects in materials and workmanship, provided the tub has been installed and maintained according to our guidelines.

10. Can the tub be installed outdoors, like on a deck or patio?
Yes, but you must specify this during the ordering process. If you plan to install your tub outdoors or in direct sunlight, we apply a specialized UV-resistant marine coating to protect the wood from sun exposure and weather elements.
