How long do baptistery repairs last?
Repairs made to baptisteries are made with the similar materials that were used from the factory such as fiberglass, polyurethane resin and in some cases gel-coat. These materials can still break down over time and allow water to pass through the gel coat layers making it weak, brittle, and discolored. The key to repairs is making the baptistry water tight and using proper cleaning chemicals in the water. Most repairs can last up to 15 years or more but this is more due to the care of the baptistery by the church. Excessive cleaning with abrasives can break down the layers in your baptistery prematurely. We offer a one year warranty on all work performed by us, Smith Contracting. Negligence is not covered under warranty. An extended warranty can be purchased for an additional year (only for repairs exceeding $3500) at the price of 10% of the price of the repair.
