"This company is wonderful! They show up when they say they will. Their prices are very competitive and the finished product came out awesome. We had them install some windows in our windowless dining room. We will totally recommend them to our friends."

"Bedford builders work is spectacular!! If you want honesty about the issues so they are actually corrected then this is the company. They are professional and clean. They were able to finally correct 2 years of leaks from one issue or another regarding my kitchen sink. Finally! We were able to match cabinets and counters to the originals to add in my kitchen which makes the work look seamless and as if it was all done at once. Also added some additional electric to the island area which is a great improvement while creating a custom made pedestal base to support a granite overhang. It’s goegeous! While at the house during the estimate he noticed that the exhaust vent for our furnace was quit low to the ground and with New England winters we were concerned about it getting buried in storms which can cause that exhaust to be trapped. They heightened the pipe and now we can sleep at night not worried about snow covering it and endangering my family. They also addressed a poorly installed window and have corrected shoddy work by the original builders. We will absolutely use them for work needed going forward. We needed not just “ quick fix’s” that many repair people / contractors will charge for and not really fix. We are so pleased and finally feel confident in a company who seriously has the expertise, honesty, and know how to get to the root of a problem and then provide you with beautiful finish work. Amazing! It’s so hard to find what you need in a contractor.. we have learned that you get what you pay for and finding the right professional contractor for our needs has been WELL WORTH IT! Thank you Bedford builders!"

"Scott was very quick to respond and get the job done. He is very knowledgeable. His prices were fair. I will definitely be calling him again! I thought I needed a new faucet but he let me know all I needed was a new hose. I really appreciated his honesty. He saved me some $$$."

"From beginning thru end, Jeff and crew made the process very pleasant. There are going to be challenges in any complicated project, and we certainly ran into them in my 1973 home. Walls and ceilings that don't exactly line up anymore. Surprises discovered in the demolition. Original design that was not thought thru back in 1973. Vendors that deliver less than perfect pieces. JCS worked thru all these issues to reach workable solutions for me. Cost-wise, to sum it up, they charge a very reasonable price. They do the right thing. They handled extra issues while here, the "Plus" referring to remolding the adjoining den plus other issues that were on my "punch list" around the house. Jeff took care of all issues. He did not consider the job finished until every last issue was off the punch list. I believe his goal is to never end a ob without leaving a customer completely happy. The "Approximate cost of service" includes everything (cabinets, appliances, supplies on top of services). In my case, everything in the kitchen and dining room from head to toe was replaced. And many extras were done including adding a walk-out door. This was a very large job."

"Claudio and his team took our outdated and worn down bathroom and turned it into the perfect space for us. Claudio is so responsive, communicating with him was easy and any questions or concerns were answered in a timely manner. From the moment we talked with Claudio we could tell he is someone that gets things done. He and his team made thoughtful suggestions, and paid attention to detail. It truly was a pleasure working with them, and we will definitely be contacting him again in the future. The project was under budget and completed on time. Our bathroom is now our favorite room of the house! Thank you again Claudio."

"I recommend this wonderful company without any hesitation. I first contacted Wood Trades LLC seeking a deck quote in September 2024, and John and Karin came out the very next day. From day one, John and Karin provided impeccable service. I cannot say enough wonderful things about their communication, transparency, honestly, and reliability. All current insurance/contractor licenses were provided up front, and any change in cost was documented through clear contracts. In addition, they patiently navigated me through a difficult permitting process from start to finish. Once the work was started, I had a gorgeous new deck in just over one week. I cannot thank this company enough for gaining, and more importantly, maintaining my trust through this project. I certainly look forward to working with Wood Trades again, and highly recommend their services to anyone seeking high quality results from a wonderful company. Exceeded expectations!"

FAQs for walk in tub installation and replacement projects in Bristol, RI

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.
