Pre-Service Requirements & Room Preparation
Proper preparation ensures a smooth application and protects your home and belongings. All scheduled work is performed Monday through Friday between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM.
1. Pre-Glazing Maintenance & Structural Repairs
- Fix Leaks & Damage First: Dripping faucets, active plumbing leaks, loose or missing tile, and structural damage must be fully repaired before our technicians arrive.
- Scope of Service: Jet’s technicians do not perform plumbing, tiling, or structural repairs. If pre-existing issues prevent proper glazing, service will be postponed until repairs are completed by property maintenance or a qualified professional.
2. Clear the Entire Work Area
All personal belongings and removable items must be completely removed from the room where glazing is taking place. Moving items to another spot in the same room is not sufficient. If the area is not cleared, service may be refused, and Jet's is not responsible for damaged items.
- Bathrooms: Remove shower curtains and liners, bathmats, towels, toiletries, shampoos, soaps, toothbrushes, makeup, hair products, medications, toilet paper and holders, trash cans, hampers, scales, decorations, and plants.
- Kitchens: Remove pots, pans, dishes, utensils, food, small appliances, countertop items, cleaning supplies, towels, and decorations.
3. Occupancy, Health & Safety Guidelines
- VOC & Fume Safety: We use lower-VOC, environmentally safe chemicals. Healthy adults are encouraged to make arrangements to be away during glazing, but may choose whether to stay or leave.
- Vulnerable Individuals: Minor children, elderly residents, and anyone with respiratory or potential life-threatening health conditions must not be inside the home during glazing or for 3–4 hours following completion. Allowing 3–4 hours for fumes to fully dissipate before returning is strongly recommended.
- Pet Safety: Pets must be secured in a cage or placed in a separate room farthest from the work area with the door closed.
- Dust Control: Resurfacing creates fine airborne dust. While technicians keep dust in the immediate area to a minimum, residual dust may settle in surrounding spaces. Dust outside the immediate work area can be cleaned with standard practices and is not the responsibility of Jet's Amazing Glazing.
4. Scheduling & Cancellations
All scheduling, changes, or cancellations must be arranged through your property management, leasing office, or landlord. Same-day cancellations or unreadiness may result in future service refusal.
On-Site Glazing & Post-Service Steps
1. Surface Preparation & Etching
On the day of service, technicians prepare the surface by:
- Covering or removing spouts and handles.
- Cutting out old caulking and thoroughly cleaning, stripping, scraping, and sanding the area.
- Chemically etching the substrate to ensure proper adhesion.
- Repairing minor chips, cracks, or scratches, re-caulking as needed, and masking off surrounding areas with heavy-duty paper and drop cloths.
2. Professional Spraying & Ventilation
Sprayers equip personal respirators and heavy-duty commercial ventilation systems with exhaust hoses directed out a window or doorway to vent fumes outdoors. The epoxy coating is applied in a multi-step process: primer, base coating, and clear topcoat.
3. Paper, Tape & Hardware Policy
- Masking paper, protective tape, and removed hardware are not automatically removed or reinstalled as part of standard glazing.
- Depending on your property’s arrangement, paper/tape removal and hardware reinstallation will be handled by property maintenance, authorized residents, or scheduled with Jet’s as an additional service upon property request.
After Care, Maintenance & Warranty Guidelines
Proper care is necessary to protect your refinished surface and maintain warranty coverage.
Surface Care Guidelines
- Cure Time: DO NOT touch, use, or expose the surface to water for 24 to 48 hours.
- Approved Cleaning: Clean after use using a soft sponge or cloth with water or mild cleansers (e.g., dish detergent or Scrubbing Bubbles).
- No Abrasives: DO NOT use abrasive scrubbing pads, steel wool, or abrasive powder/liquid cleansers.
- Prevent Impact & Rust: DO NOT drop sharp or heavy objects on the finish. DO NOT leave metal objects (such as razors or shaving cream cans) on the surface.
- No Rubber Bathmats: DO NOT use rubber bathmats with suction cups. Hot water causes rubber mats to react with the finish, leading to peeling and bubbling.
- Avoid Harsh Chemicals: Keep drain openers, grout cleaners, bleach, hair dyes, cosmetics, and perfumes away from the refinished surface.
365-Day Limited Warranty
All services provided by Jet's Amazing Glazing carry a 365-day warranty starting from the spraying date.
Exceptions: Kitchen sinks, acid washing, and touch-ups are excluded from the 365-day warranty.
Warranty Voidance: Failure to observe care instructions, use of prohibited chemicals, or use of rubber bathmats constitutes neglect and voids the warranty.
