## Our Experience from Start to Finish
Here is a play by play of our toilet door replacement journey.
### How We Got Started
I sent a text to **9898 9268**.
They asked for:
- Door size
- Postal code
- Our requirements
**Pro tip:** Have your measurements ready before you message.
### The Measurer Came to Us
Booking was easy – just a few messages back and forth.
On the day of the visit:
- The technician arrived within the promised window
- He brought colour samples and catalogues
- We chose our design – white powder coated finish
- He measured everything twice like a true professional
One thing to know: A 50% deposit or minimum $100 is required during the visit. We paid via PayNow – super easy.
Also, make sure the **person who calls the shots** is home. Ask me how I know.
### Step 3: The 14-21 Day Wait
Once we signed off, we were told installation would take **about 3-4 weeks**. Ours took exactly 18 days.
Not gonna lie – the wait felt long. But when installation day finally arrived, it was completely worth the wait.
### Finally – Door Goes Up
The evening before installation, their office sent a WhatsApp message with a time slot. They gave us a morning slot.
The installer arrived at 10:30 AM. Friendly, uniformed, and fully prepared..
The whole job was done in 90 minutes.
- Hauled away the old door (it was disgusting at the bottom)
- Put in our brand new space saving door
- Made sure there was no mess
Before he left, he asked us to test the door to make sure we were completely satisfied. Great after-sales service.
We paid the remaining balance on the spot via PayNow.
