"We were looking to replace a tub and fix a leak in our old house. Jeff came and inspected and gave us a very reasonable estimate. They replaced the tub and the tile contractors were great. We then thought we'd just throw in a change of toilet and that then revealed a serious flooring problem. We ended up remodeling the small bathroom and Jeff did a great job. He is honest and wants to make the customer happy."

"Joe's crew converted storage closet in the living room into work from home nook with built in shelves. Additionally, we had them relocate electrical from cans lights and install ceiling fans. Given we had rental tenants moving out and new tenants moving in, he responded quickly to the project. Only after a couple of days, the work was completed! He truly cares about his customers and is a professional in his work."

"WR Builders Inc. recently completed a major renovation on my house, and I am thrilled with the outcome. From the initial consultation to the final walk-through, their team was professional and responsive. They listened to my ideas and offered suggestions that greatly improved the design. The workmanship is outstanding, and the materials they used were of the highest quality. The project was completed on time and within the agreed budget, with no hidden costs. I would highly recommend WR Builders Inc. for any renovation or construction needs."

"Excellent! Liam is a quality craftsman. If you want someone who is professional, polite, and has an eye for detail then hire him. Liam not only picked out a quality door, but hung it to perfection. From the start, he was in touch with me via text. He sent me a photo of the door before ordering. He said it would take about 10 days to come in. He contacted me when the door was in and set up a date for install. He arrived 15 minutes early! , but didn’t ring my doorbell till 7am. He built a new door casing and installed a beautiful oak sill. He installed the door and provided plastic on the outside to protect it from the coming rain. ( not all contractors would do that) He cleaned up after the job and sent me a text to let me know the job was done. ( I was working in my office in the house). Liam is an A+ contractor. He does everything right from start to finish. He is exceptional and has a fair price. I will definitely hire him again for any future house projects, and you should too!"

"I am very pleased with the work completed by Crystal Renovations in my home. The company's owner, Pedro Quissalga, is knowledgeable and has a fantastic crew. He implemented the bathroom, laundry, and closet design ideas beautifully. A critical positive factor was communication. Pedro was responsive to my questions and concerns. He kept me informed every step of the way during the construction. Another important factor was their care in keeping the renovation project clean and organized. The team was also mindful of how the construction may impact the rest of the building and did their best to keep the noise level down. I highly recommend Crystal Renovations."

Customers say: Quality work

"Edian and his crew at Alexis were sensational to partner with, did very high quality work, and made the experience seamless despite a meaningful degree of complexity. I purchased an old (c 1900) two-family home knowing it was in need of a lot of work, but I didn't appreciate the full scope of that work; there are always surprises in the walls! Edian was very thorough in his initial bid, was highly detail-oriented once work commenced, and always fully explained to me everything he found. He and his team of highly experienced trades folks were always able to come up with creative solutions to the problems we uncovered, and usually were able to give me multiple, easy-to-understand options for how to proceed. In terms of the finished product, I couldn't be happier. Another element that impressed me was the level of service throughout the project. Edian treats every client like they are his only client, even when he has other jobs going. He always goes above and beyond when it comes to responding to questions or issues that come up, making time to meet and discuss ideas, or just generally addressing concerns. Edian also did a great job of coordinating the work of other trades folks who had parts to play on the project (but weren't his own subs), such as the landscapers and various custom installers. And, as we finished parts of the project and tenants moved into the building, he even did some light property management work for me (receiving deliveries, helping with installation of fixtures, helping with move-in). Truly a white-glove experience. And just a note on Edian himself, I couldn't have asked for a more responsive, proactive, patient, and trustworthy contractor. I had some experience going in, but this project was the first of this scope I had taken on, and Edian not only helped me feel at ease through the bumps in the road, but also taught me a ton about how these complex renovations are done successfully. He also has an incredible level of follow-through and reliability (anyone who's worked with many contractors knows how rare this is!), and continued providing support for little things that came up after the scope of work was completed (ripped screens, installing finishing hardware, repairing a door, etc.). Bottom line, Alexis isn't necessarily the cheapest option out there (Edian will tell you this from the beginning of the project), but if you want very high quality and a highly responsive and trustworthy relationship with a contractor and crew, look no further. Personally, I won't use anyone other than Edian for future projects."

"When we decided to finish the large basement of our ranch-style home, Lancaster Home Remodeling was on our list of businesses to consider. Upon our contacting John and Kim, we secured an appointment in the near future for John to go through our basement with our architect after he finished up work for the day on his then-current project. At this initial appointment, John asked detailed questions, making sure that he understood everything about the project which our architect had planned. John and Kim were clear that they would not be able to start construction for several months because of John’s current project’s timeline. However, the work in our basement began in very close proximity to their original estimate of when they expected that it would. When construction began, John worked diligently and methodically. Everything he did —from insulation and framing, to boxing out for pipes, to installing subfloor and prepping for flooring and blue board installation —seemed to take as long as it needed to in order to be done right; then he moved on. He kept us informed of the process as he went along, and was consistently on the job when he said he would be. The other specialists he hired to do other aspects — electrical, plumbing, plaster and paint, and tile for a bathroom, worked quickly, and to date it appears they have done an excellent job. He introduced us to businesses in the area which offered a customer friendly experience in terms of selecting tiles, paint, and bathroom fixtures. And where he offered advice in these areas, he understood that every homeowner has their own style and preferences, and directed his his counsel towards brands that would offer diverse selection and high quality. Personally, after numerous conversations with them, we found both John and Kim to be affable and people-friendly. John was always happy to explain what he would be doing next, and why he did what he did in terms of his construction techniques. Our experience has left us far more than satisfied with our experience with Lancaster Home Improvement, and shows that John and Kim run their business with professionalism, expertise, and a true pride in the work which they do. We unreservedly recommend them for your own project, and will continue to work with them as our own needs arise."

"Newbridge Contracting did an excellent job. Tiles look fabulous and they even put a sealer in a section of our foundation and floor that has leaked in the past. Had a few very heavy rains and no problem! They also fixed tiles in the shower, small job but very needed. Excellent work."

FAQs for walk in tub installation and replacement projects in Allston, MA

Because Medicare classifies walk-in tubs as non-durable medical equipment, it generally won’t pick up the tab. Medicaid can help if a doctor certifies that the tub is medically necessary, but rules change by state. Call your plan early, ask which forms you need, and keep any prescriptions or letters on file to improve your odds of reimbursement.

A walk-in bathtub’s fill and drain times hinge on your home’s water pressure and the tub’s hardware. Most models with a fast-fill faucet need about six to eight minutes to fill and two to three minutes to drain; larger basins or standard drains can tack on an extra 10 minutes. Stay seated until the water is completely gone so you don’t swing the door open on a full tub’s worth of water.

A walk-in bathtub holds 50 gallons of water, and its design supports capacities that range from 40 to 80 gallons, depending on the product. In contrast, a standard bathtub holds 25 to 45 gallons. This capacity is determined by the fixed design of the tub and its construction materials. Homeowners should review the detailed product specifications to confirm the exact volume available for use during bath time.

Walk-in tubs are tax-deductible when the purchase qualifies as a necessary medical expense and meets the IRS criteria. Caregivers who install a walk-in tub also qualify for the Dependent Care Tax Credit under specific conditions. Homeowners must verify these requirements with the IRS and consult a tax professional, as state and program guidelines enforce strict documentation standards for such deductions.
