"Getting a walk in tub is expensive no matter who you use. My experience thus far is with installation only and I must say my install went great. It has been over a month and no issues with my tub so I cannot comment on repair process with American Standard."

"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!"

"Claudio and his team took our outdated and worn down bathroom and turned it into the perfect space for us.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."

"Brian came to our home to do a tub to shower installation. He was very respectful and reviewed what he would be doing. The project was completed within the time frame we were told. Again, he reviewed what he had done and how to properly care for the shower. It really looks great and we are looking forward to using it. Thank you Brian and rite window team. Respectfully Leslie Greeley Brewster Ma"

"Highly recommend Stephen. I had a clogged kitchen sink that wouldn't drain despite using a plunger, Drain-O, a 25' snake, and everything I could think of using. I called numerous plumbers and Stephen was one of the few who was able to give me a quote (other quotes I received were at least twice as much) and showed up first thing the next morning. He was incredibly thorough with his work, running multiple tests, and not leaving my home until he was 100% sure the clog had been fully cleared. On top of all of this he ended up charging me less than quoted and even cleaned up around the sink. If you need a plumber, definitely give Stephen a call. Very polite, professional and incredibly thorough."

"All three jobs went great. For the water heater replacement Lewis came to my house at a convenient time for me, removed the heater changed out the rotted pipes and installed a new one with warranty. The price was great too. This job was time sensitive and he made me a priority to get it done. For the bathroom tub drain unclog he was very professional and did a great job. My garbage disposal was leaking and I came home to a pool of water in my cabinet and on the floor. Lewis came out quickly to resolve the issue for me. He replaced everything under the sink and showed me what he was doing each step of the way. I think that he is a great plumber if you want to get quality work and learn about each job too."

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.
