"The owner, Joe Ward, personally performed and oversaw all services alongside his team each day. He provided a fair and transparent estimate for the complete remodel, including a Tub-to-Shower conversion. With 35 years of experience, Joe inspired confidence in choosing him and his company for our project. His artistry and expertise were evident throughout the process, as he guided us in selecting options that resulted in a stunning and enduring design. Joe’s honesty and dedication shine through in his meticulous attention to detail, ensuring every aspect—from plumbing and electrical work to flooring and paint—meets his exacting standards without cutting any corners. He works exclusively with his trusted team, eliminating the need for unfamiliar contractors and maintaining consistency with the same crew each day, all led by Joe himself.

My trust in Joe is absolute, and I look forward to hiring him again for further updates to our over-100-year-old home. If I could, I’d gladly award him 1,000 stars!

"1) Liam and his co-worker, Mark, did a great job of replacing the 2 light fixtures. The builder grade light fixtures over the bathtub in the hall bathroom and over the shower in the master bathroom had a spring mechanism to hold them in place that broke in a house that is just 7 yrs. old. They were replaced with light fixtures that are now LED white light. (We were given the choice of yellow or bright, white.) They are flush mounted and the old ones were not completely flush. 2) During the construction of our home, which was completed in March 2012, the siding was placed over the hall bathroom fan vent. Unfortunately, the opening for the vent was never exposed. Additionally, the vent cover was not able to be freed from the siding. So, they were able to cut a hole next to it in the siding, move the 3" pipe, and install the cover. I had already arranged with Liam that we would supply the cover because we wanted to make sure that it had the grating to keep the Starlings out. (They are notorious in this neighborhood for getting into every cavity that they can.) We are very pleased with all of the work that was completed and highly recommend Liam and Mark."

"Eli and his crew saved my build. My wife and I struggled to find honest, kind, and hardworking contractors, but Eli helped us tremendously in all phases of our project (a complete home renovation). He is very knowledgeable and was able to problem solve and find solutions to problems that came up. He didn't delay or put me off. I always felt like a priority and he got work done when he said he would. His crew is very friendly and I had NO concerns about leaving them on the site without me. We are very happy with the work he's done for us. They would go the extra mile and never took shortcuts. I was very involved with our project, overseeing all stages of the build. Eli was the only contractor who didn't take shortcuts or try and get out of fixing a mistake. He was always willing to address any issue that came up and didn't make me feel as though I was wasting his time for asking questions and making suggestions. It is hard to find competent and trustworthy contractors these days, but Eli and his crew were instrumental in helping us finish our home. I highly recommend his services."

FAQs for walk in tub installation and replacement projects in Covington, KY

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.
