Make worrying about daily bathing a thing of yesteryear, and let our Olathe pros get the proper gear into your own bathroom, for a much easier and safer life.

Question 1

1) Will a tub like this look bad for my homeowner’s insurance in Kansas?

Check with your Olathe homeowner's insurance to ensure it's going to cover you against this kind of damage. You may need a house modification permit from the Olathe, KS building department to install a bath, particularly when walls need to be removed to match your toilet plans. Above all, you didn't get one AND and if you needed a permit your home suffers from damage from the installed walkin tub, your homeowner's insurance may not cover your losses. In case you plan on ever selling your Olathe house, there are lots of buyer beware messages out there which will steer potential buyers from your house since it does affect homeowner's insurance, if there have been any improvements without licenses. Buyers see their homeowners insurance as well as the permits as protections on their investments in houses.

Question 2

2) Can I convert my existing bathtub into a walk-in one?

Yes. There are instructions available on how exactly to convert your existing bathtub into a walk-in tub. We recommend that you just understand how exactly to make use of the tools that are proper in order that you just do not end up with a non-working bathtub. There are companies in Olathe that understand the way to turn your bath more disability as well as your house reachable for less of an investment than alternatives. As installers, we know just how to point you in the correct direction, so please ask us for a consultation so we are able to assist you in making your home match your current needs, particularly if you have recently become disabled or are supplying an elderly man care-giving in their own home or your home.

Question 3

3) Are these tubs as easy to clean as normal tubs?

They are easy to wash, but unlike regular tubs, itis a good idea to maintain a daily cleaning habit with a walk-in bath utilizing the products that are appropriate and following manufacturer's recommendations. You wish to really make sure with a walk in bathroom that you remove scum and spots to protect the surface. Get into the practice of wiping down the wet surfaces after each use to help avoid the build up scum, that will necessitate more scrubbing later. Weekly, use cleaners to wash your walk-in bath. Products that address your specific water blot and deposits should be considered as well as any indicators that these products may destroy the finish in your bath. Since baths are usually either acrylic or fiberglass, you need to get familiar with the best cleaning methods for your type of tub. Fiberglass can readily dull and is porous and fragile and spot. Acrylic is non-porous and simple to wash. Don't use abrasive cleaners you might dull the finish and scratch the bathtub. Additionally, if the weather permits, air out the room in order that it does not remain humid. Some manufacturers advise that your own bathroom window opens for an hour each day to let moisture escape.

Question 4

4) Can I choose the color / style to match my interior decoration?

Yes. Check with the producers about Kansas options. Colors which are uniform with the majority of bathrooms are only offered by some. Selecting the right walk-in tub for you means discussing the variety of styles, sizes and layouts to make sure it satisfies your own special needs and room requirements. You might have to pay an added fee for a custom shade since most makers make bathtubs in white and cream.

Question 5

5) Is there a way to re-sell the tub once we are done with it?

You can resell or find used walk-in bathtubs being sold online. Nevertheless, lots of people usually wish to make sure that they're purchasing a walk in bath that personally fulfills their needs for the long term. They are not as inclined to choose a big risk by paying all the costs associated with transportation and the removal of their present bathtub without a bit more investment and guarantee in the condition and quality of their purchase. There's not really a huge marketplace for plumbing fixtures that are used. Finally, should you think you might attempt to resell your walk-in tub, the next buyer may want to know if the lifetime guarantee is extended to other owners as well or if they are going to have to cover the costs associated with a door seal or alternative part damages that could occur with use.

Question 6

6) Will the cost of installation and equipment be covered by my disability in Kansas?

If your impairment was a result of a work or car accident, check with the appropriate insurance carrier to determine if home modifications resulting from your KS handicap are insured. Claims that include Olathe home modifications are not inadmissible in insurance resolutions. Someone have a health condition that meets their definition of disability and qualifies for Social Security disability benefits when they've worked in work that was covered by Social Security. Benefits could be covered in case you are on impairment or injured. Since SSI is a needs-based plan plus an SSI recipient must have limited income and resources, eligibility for the Plan for Achieving Self-Support (PASS) allows a person who has a disability to attain an occupational goal. The money that is set aside under a PASS could be used for anything that results in an occupational goal and can be used to cover house adjustments through an SSI savings strategy. You can learn more about PASS through your local Social Security Administration office or call toll free 800-772-1213. In case you are a veteran, the Department of Veterans' Affairs does offer individual plans that will allow you to deflect some of the price. Contact the form 26-4555 to submit an application for a SAH or SHA grant. For advice on all VA benefits in Kansas call 1 800 827 1000.

Question 7

7) How much do walk-in bathtubs cost in Olathe?

A walk-in bathtub in Olathe generally ranges in cost from $1,700 to over $30,000. The cost is dependent upon whether you have it installed by our Kansas team, what characteristics you pick, along with the standard of the item. The price also fluctuates depending on whether you choose acrylic or fiberglass tubs. Everyone is different and making sure that a walk-in tub works for a person's unique position is extremely critical since it's typically replacing a bathtub or bathing assembly that isn't fulfilling their needs. A good walk-in tub runs between $8, $3,000 000 installed. Some providers provide a cash bonus or monthly obligations.

Question 8

8) About how much will one of these tubs cost to get installed?

The setup can really cost you about $1,500-$3,000 to be installed in Olathe. Sometimes the cost of the setup as well as the unit is a better investment than paying for a caretaker.

Question 9

9) Are there any kits available for installing my own walk-in tub?

Yes, manufacturers do offer do it yourself installments of a bathroom conversion kit. Depending on whether you possess the correct tools and specialized familiarity with the tools, it is not impossible. Yet, many times, someone believes it's definitely going to be inexpensive to buy all the proper tools. These tools can be costly, so be sure to compare the price of buying all the tools and the price of your time learning just how to install the kit with the cost of a professional installation. In the event you are someone who does a large amount of home improvements, then the directions might seem pretty easy. Otherwise, you may want to save yourself the trouble and expense by investing in Olathe professionals who will install it properly. Only make sure the unit you bought did not get harmed during transportation and they test the unit according to the manufacturer's directions.

Question 10

10) How do walk-in tubs drain?

Some systems apply a gravity only drainage system, while other makers offer power assisted drainage systems. Usually, the drainage system in a walk-in tub is attached to the standard tub drain, which is threaded into a flat pipe called a waste shoe. The shoe is sealed under its flange using a foam washer or putty. Comparing double drain alternatives to rapid drain choices is significant when considering that most walk-in tubs take between 2 and 3 minutes to drain which demands the temperature in the room be comfortable while they wait. Some attributes may cost you more, so it's almost always wise to ask. Finally, get to be aware of the difference between frameless baths since frameless tubs often drain faster than framed tubs, because they do not change the drain height of your existing tub and framed tubs. Framed tubs are constructed on a steel framework as well as the bottom of the bathtub is suspended off the floor. Frameless baths are designed with an extra-strength form that doesn't need a steel frame and the underside of the bath is not suspended in the air.

Question 11

11) Will AARP cover the cost of equipment and installation?

AARP is not a provider of insurance, but contracts with insurers to make coverage available to AARP members. AARP doesn't make health plan recommendations for individuals and doesn't cover the price of walk-in tubs or some wellness needs. AARP does provide coverage like other health plans and Medicare Supplement Insurance and accessibility to medical care tools to members as a resource, but member advantages are provided by third parties. Check with the plans that are listed under AARP's membership services in Kansas.

Question 12

12) Why are these tubs so much more expensive than normal tubs?

Largely you're paying for a listing of safety features that are not accessible on a regular tub. These safety features are built into walk in bathtubs for individuals with limited freedom to lower the likelihood of falling down. An important feature of walk-in tubs is that there's a low step threshold to allow a user to readily enter into the tub unconcerned regarding the normal high wall of a regular bathtub. The walk in bathtubs also generally comprise a cleaning function, jet treatment, and improved drain alternatives. Furthermore, one of the reasons why the price varies among the walk-in tubs is that the tubs are custom-made depending on an individual 's needs rather than factory reproduced, so you can discover a tub that's specifically made for someone who wants wheelchair access, a tub that fits a bigger individual, or a soaker tub with jets.
