"Andy Q and his crew were absolutely flawless in planning, execution and finishing up the smallest details in this complex project. He and his crew were artisans, making my small bathroom look like a million bucks! They went above and beyond what he had agreed to do and his workman were the hardest working I've ever seen. The original demolition was to take 2 days and took 1 day with the second day for hauling everything from this ancient bath with layers of tiles and floors. His bid was the lowest of Manhattan contractors, including Lowes, who was dying to offer free financing, but with no practical advice. Andy knew what I could realistically do and what was just not possible in my tiny bathroom. One contractor wanted $15K just for demolition of my 30 square foot bathroom! Even before we began and all during the project, if I texted Andy, he would call within minutes and was always available to help with advice and reassurance. The Maintenance Company representatives for my co-op, on the other hand, were horrible, with unreasonable delays in approving my project, which delayed our starting time considerably. But that is over since my bath is 95% finished !! The new custom shower doors from Paradise Glass will be installed Wednesday and I will follow up with another review. THANK YOU ANDY!!!! XXOO I have a real estate side business in Texas and have always relied on Angie's List for the best service providers for my rental properties, and have never been disappointed. But I have never been this happy, since it is MYAPARTMENT this time!! :-) me at lin"

"All workers were respectful and polite. They finished work in less time than I thought and cleaned up any mess which I appreciated. Tub and wall look beautiful. They explained how to use it. Customer service was great starting with sales rep and throughout installation. They removed the big whirlpool tub and installed a walk-in tub."

"Homecraft did an exquisite and flawless job remodeling our bathroom. We particularly appreciated the undivided attention that is allowed by their appointment system for consultations. They worked with us to customize the features to suit our needs and were open and creative in responding to our non-standard requests. The carpentry, plumbing, electrical, and tile work were performed by craftsmen who were clearly masters of their trades. Our old house served up a few surprises during the remodeling but Homecraft was able to resolve every problem with their connections to top-notch contractors outside of their usual services."

"CNM Construction was a fantastic choice for our project. Matt was super responsive and gave us a fair quote for our 1-bedroom overhaul, including a gut kitchen remodel. The project took longer than expected, about 2 years, due to issues with our co-op board, but CNM was patient and communicated well throughout. Our renovation plans had to change several times due to board demands, but CNM handled it smoothly. When construction did finally start, it went by quickly and smoothly. Special kudos to Mateo and Jose for their great construction work and openness to our feedback. We're thrilled with the end result and would happily work with CNM again in the future. If you want a responsive, patient, and flexible construction partner, choose CNM Construction."

"After a bitter cold night our pipes froze in our laundry room which later resulted in some major flooding in both our downstairs laundry room and guest room. I called JF Santos Construction in desperate need of help due to significant water damage. I received an immediate response and work was completed within two weeks of my call. The workers were professional, courteous, trustworthy, and diligent. Not only did the work get completed quickly, efficiently, and professionally, but Joe also installed measures to help future issues from reoccurring. We haven't any frozen pipes since the construction work was done. Joe also helped us work with our insurance company to receive the compensation needed to pay for the work. It was a pleasure working with Joe and his team. I highly recommend JF Santos Construction."

"Bob the owner is very helpful and will go out of his way to make sure you’re happy and his prices are fair. His 3 main workers, Steve, Oscar and Angel are without a doubt the best craftsmen that I have ever used. They care about the quality there on time and make sure everything is cleaned up at the days end. They put up a ceiling painted my entire house and did an awesome job on a new bathroom. It came out unbelievable. They are also very polite and want you to be satisfied. Bob can always be reached and will go out of his way to make the customer happy. I would surely recommend US home remodeling to everyone you can’t go wrong. They also installed a new floor throughout my entire house. Beautiful work."

FAQs for walk in tub installation and replacement projects in University, NY

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.
