"Overall, went very well. Contractor met with me to carefully insure that he understood what I needed, and to also insure that I knew what materials and services would be provided. Workers arrived on-time, and were courteous. Work was performed in a professional manner, and results looked very good. (My only complaint was that, during the removal of the old tub, plaster dust was kicked up and not contained in the bathroom, resulting in a layer of plaster dust covering all surfaces of the house.) I am very satisfied with my new bathroom!"

"Don is a consumate professional with an eye for detail and he insists on everything being done correctly. His crew is equally committed to doing the job right and very puctual. During the project, if Don identifies previous workmanship that was not up to snuff, he brings it to your attention and recommends the best possible remedy. He envisions ways to improve on design and brings great ideas to the table. Don has already renovated a kitchen and bathroom in our previous house, and a bathroom in our new (old) house. He is already scheduled to do the kitchen and another en suite bathroom/closet in our current house. We highly recommend Don and his crew. We're sure you would be equally thrilled with his work."

"Martin's Home Improvement (MHI) did an excellent job. This was the third and final bathroom that we updated after buying a home in North Wilmington. The first two we had done by another contractor who did a great job, but was too slow with some minor problems we found later with electrical work. We decided that our final bathroom needed to be done in two weeks (not two-three months!) and at a good price. I reached out to four contractors and Martin's Home Improvement met our requirements. The project was completed in about two weeks - this was a complete job from gutting the existing hall bathroom to studs and replacing floor, walls, tub, sink, toilet, shower, tiles, mirror, lighting, and fan. They showed up everyday on time. The workers were very professional and skillful. I was home most of the time while they were working and so saw how careful they were to do the job right. Communication was great. Marcin texted back in a timely manner and dropped by the project often to supervise his team. I could tell they knew what they were doing and Marcin himself told me that he does 25-40 bathroom jobs a year. I bought the tile, vanity, sink, toilet, tub, faucets, fan, and mirror and MHI provided building supplies and paint. The price quote from MHI was for labor and building supplies. I would definitely use Martin Home Improvement again and will highly recommend him to others. MHI is dependable, fair, efficient, and the quality of work is excellent."

"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"

"Gary and his team gutted and expanded bathrooms, installed wood floors, installed smart toilets, replaced countertops, kitchen sinks, electrical work, installed a whole house generator, installed ductless systems in areas of the house that needed additional heating /AC as well as replaced a few windows. Gary and his team were attentive to detail and open to suggestions and they all were friendly, efficient and good natured which is truly necessary on extended projects like ours."

"Omar is very professional, respectful and easy to work with. He takes pride in his work and is very reliable. He communiicates and does his best to meet your needs. In the beginning we told him that we wanted to remodel our bathroom and laundry room in time for a big party that we had comming up. Not only did he make it happen, but he did a pretty d*** good job! Our party guests loved the new bathroom so much, one of them even took a shower in it! Lol. I will definily use Omar again for future projects!"

"Guy and his team were amazing and professional. Guy was able to recommend solutions to resolve ongoing water problems in the basement, completed the install and finished the basement. It has added significant square footage and value to our home. Additionally, he completely remodeled the kitchen and was able to suggest small but important finishing details the really brought the project together. The kitchen is transformed and is a gathering spot for the whole family. Guy has also helped us out with smaller odds and ends including installing new outlets and breakers, repairing drywall, and smaller paint jobs. I would recommend Guy and his team over and over again!"

FAQs for walk in tub installation and replacement projects in Kirkwood, DE

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.
