Genie Bath Systems provides homeowners with custom bath remodeling solutions, to include a full-line accessibility needs. All of our products are custom made in the USA. Factory Certified Installation.Lifetime Warranty.100% Financing . PLEASE NOTE: WE DON"T PERFORM KITCHEN REMODELS

"Last October, my sister, an elderly veteran living alone, contracted Genie Bath Systems to remodel her master and guest baths. She was diagnosed cancer and passed before the remodel was complete. Which, to be fair as we were not able to work with Genie while attending to my sister. The contract was expensive. Very expensive. The cost of the remodel is close to 1/4th the value of her home. I noticed there were issues with the remodel that showed a surprising lack of attention to detail. Genie sent people to address the issues twice. Yet issues remain. My calls to my contact at Genie are now being ignored. Also, the only document I have for the remodel is the contract my sister signed. It is not detailed. I have and continue to ask for a breakdown of the cost. An estimate or work order. This request is also being ignored. I am disappointed and have to wonder why Genie will not provide this information. I have several other questions for Genie that I will not go into here. But based on my experience, I cannot recommend Genie. In fact I would warn anyone considering Genie to be very careful about the cost of the contract."

Operating as a local family-owned business, we bring a rich 30-year expertise to your doorstep. We’ve established a name for ourselves through our steadfast devotion to high-end services, premier materials, and an unrivaled dedication to making our customers happy. We’ve covered all your needs, from designing your home to professional installations. With us, your vision isn’t just a fantasy but a reasonable, affordable reality.

"If you want to hire a company that cares, this is the one. We needed to have a bath converted into a walk-in shower in our guest bathroom because of the accessibility issues. The original design looked great, but it would have taken a couple of months to get all the supplies. John and Travis realized that we had an urgent need and came back with a great design that used great materials and we didn't have to wait for so long. In a couple of weeks, we had a crew headed by Jesse that landed in our bathroom. They were great. Everything was done in a day and a half. The quality is superb! Every time I walk into the bathroom, I enjoy the look of it, plus we are happy with all the benefits of having a walk-in shower. One more thing I want you to know is that I really mean what I am saying in this review. When the owner of the company, not a hired salesman, is directly involved in projects, it makes a big difference. Plus, the price was more reasonable compared to "the big shower remodeling companies""

"One of the worst experiences I have ever had in my life with a company. They came to install a reverse osmosis system to our House that was to be leased in the following 2 weeks. They left, and after a few hours when we returned to the property. The reverse osmosis system was leaking immensely. It completely flooded our kitchen about quarter of an inch of water. Our kitchen had been recently re-done (finished about 4-5 months prior) and it costed over 25,000 Dollars just on the cabinets and counters. The system flooded at least 4 cabinets. And it went under the cabinets and into the walls. There was already visible damage of warping and expanding from the wood. We kindly requested them to come and fix their problem and pay us for the damaged. This is when they brought in an incredibly rude employee called Randal Booth. He was very rude to me and my wife, he wouldn't let us speak or explain, he tried to diminish the damage, and tried to blame us. My father has been in construction for over 40 years, he works with builders that build custom homes or luxury homes. So he has experience with pricing. We brought a very very very modest quote of repairing the kitching (removing everything, drying the walls, and installing new cabinets, and then re-installing everything else) This meant we had to properly remove the Granit as well as remove all the sink and plumbing and some electrical (because of the oven and gas cook top) on top of we would have needed to remove at least a foot of backsplash plank. Then remove 4 cabinets, and install 4 new cabinets, granite counter again, sink and all plumbing, cooktop and oven, and then backsplash plank, paint and caulk and finish everything. My dad's quote was around 7,500 USD to do everything (including buying new cabinets from American Woodmark, which were the same brand we had recently installed). The quote was modest because he was going to give me a friends and family discount and ask favors to his electricians and plumbers and painter work friends. Randal proceeded to rejected the quote and asked to bring his own licensed contractor. Which we allowed him to do. My father was present when the contractor came in. First of all, the contractor tried to diminish the quality of the cabinets saying that they were cheaply homemade cabinets painted on site. Which was a complete lie. They were purchased at Home depot Bandera and were American Woodmark. I have the receipts (which were sent to Randel but he ignored them) Then the contractor proceeded to say that he would get done the project in a couple of hours, and he said he would just remove the current cabinets without removing anything else and installing them. This would completely risk our kitchen for even more damage. Randel then proceeded to give us a settlement offer of 1900.00 dollars of so. I was not pleased with the offer and I told him just the cabinets alone costed about 450 each and we got them at a sale event in Home depot and with some extra discount percentage because of the credit card. So I told Randel Booth that instead of taking his settlement offer, I would prefer his contractor to come and do the work for the 1900. Then he started stalling and not answering. He asked for proof of the cabinet costs and I sent it, and more stalling happened. Then after like 4 MONTHS of waiting, I contacted The Marketing Manager on Linkedin and made her aware of the situation. Randel emailed me saying he wanted another contractor to come in and get a quote. Which I told him no, he had his opportunity and I didn't want to bother the tenants. All in all its been 6 months we have 4 warped cabinets and Alamo water softeners has fixed this issue. We now will start talking to a lawyer to assess the situation."

FAQs for appliance (smaller size) installation and replacement projects in Bandera, TX

Garbage disposals last around 10 years when properly maintained. If your unit is getting close to that age or repair costs are increasing, it might be time to consider a replacement. Regular maintenance and careful use can help maximize your garbage disposal's performance and help it reach its maximum lifespan.

There are several signs to watch for that indicate your garbage disposal needs to be replaced. Replacement may be necessary if it doesn't work even though it's properly connected, the blades are worn and causing delays in operation, a persistent foul odor that won't go away, or leaks coming from the bottom due to a compromised seal. If you're experiencing any of these issues, it might be time to consider getting a new garbage disposal to keep your kitchen running smoothly.

A plumber or handyperson can install your garbage disposal if the electrical connections are already in place. If you need additional electrical work, you'll also need to hire a qualified electrician to handle the rest of the job. Hiring local professionals ensures the installation is safe and up to code.

It’s important to avoid putting certain items down the drain to keep your garbage disposal running smoothly and avoid clogs. Expandable foods like pasta, rice, oatmeal, and bread can swell and cause blockages. Coffee grounds, grease, fats, and oils can accumulate and create clogs. Hard items such as meat bones, nuts, and fruit pits can damage the disposal blades. Eggshells, potato peels, and fibrous vegetables such as celery, pumpkin, corn husks, artichokes, onion skins, and asparagus can wrap around the blades or obstruct the pipes.

Not every sink is suitable for the installation of a garbage disposal. The compatibility of the sink with the disposal depends on the material and structural integrity. While many standard sinks support these units, fireclay sinks are prone to cracking under the added stress and should not be used. Confirm that your sink can securely accommodate the disposal before installation.

Choosing the correct size garbage disposal depends on your household size and how much waste you produce. A 1/3–1/2 horsepower unit should be sufficient for households with one to two people. If your household consists of three to six people, a 1/2–3/4 horsepower unit is recommended. FA3/4–1 horsepower model will be necessary. For larger households of five to eight people
