"We had the old cast iron tub removed and a walk in shower installed and they completed the whole job in one day and it is beautiful. They were very professional and showed me every step of the way through the completion of the job. I would recommend West Shore Home!"

"They installed some windows and vinyl siding on my home. They were very professional, communicative, paid great attention to detail, and left the work site clean. Definitely worth the investment."

"I will start by saying that every single person who worked on our bathroom, from the team that did the demo to the people who did finishing touches, was so nice and kept everything as clean as they possibly could. You hear horror stories about renovations and this is definitely not that but I will say I do not believe I got what I paid well above average for - less stress and more attention to detail. I thought having a designer and a project manager would make the whole process less stressful. Even with the significant sum I paid for the designer, things were overlooked and decisions ended up being made on the fly, without consulting me. The big ones were 1) installing a custom shelf that was significantly too small for the space and filling the large gap with caulk instead of just admitting the measurements were off and they needed to order a new shelf. They did ultimately replace and reinstall the shelf at my request. After months of waiting for the new shelf to be installed, there is still a big gap but it’s in the back and I just want to this to be over so I’m not asking for it to be fixed. 2) The spacing of the tiles in one area of the bathroom required some problem solving because they didn’t fit evenly along the wall. The way it was done initially looked sloppy. They were willing to redo it but this required me to purchase more materials. I wish I had been consulted before they were installed. Within 2 months of installation, the grout in our shower cracked. When they came to replace the shelf that they installed even though it was too small, they agreed to fix the grout in the shower. When we got home, we realized the spots where the grout was touched up were done with a totally different grout - one that is not seen anywhere else in our bathroom. This was definitely an odd choice/oversight but mistakes happen… but then when we told the project manager this happened and it needed to be fixed, he told us that the guy just used the grout we gave him! First of all, we did not give this man any grout. Second of all, we are not the professionals here so if this man saw that the grout he thought he was supposed to be using was a completely different color (definitely not mistakable for the grout in our shower) why would he, a professional, not come to us and ask us to confirm that we actually wanted him to use that grout? While the lack of attention to detail and the poor planning bothered me throughout the process, this refusal to take accountability and instinct to blame us for something that we should not and could not be responsible for is what pushed me to leave this review. Lastly, the grout on the walls is a different color than the floor but some of the wall grout color got on the floor in the areas where the floor and wall meet. I thought this would be resolved by the cleaners if they scrubbed it hard enough but they just left and it’s still there. The cleaners also only cleaned the bathroom, not the two connecting bedrooms that were also coated in dust throughout this process like I would have expected."

"The job turned out great and we are very pleased. We have been using this contractor for many years and have always been completely satisfied with the work done. Before we moved to a condo, we had a three story house and he did many jobs for us from replacing the roof, to installing a sump pump in the basement."

"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."

"From the first phone call to the end of the construction project they were professional and kind. Matthew not only knew how to help with what we wanted but was quick to have an estimate and began when we needed them. They're estimate was resonable and very appropriate for the job. When they found out our old shower fan wasn't even hooked up to the outside, they fixed that with no problem. Would we have them do more construction work for us, absolutely. Thank you MNB Renovations."

FAQs for walk in tub installation and replacement projects in Swarthmore, PA

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.
