Licensed Master Plumber with over 20 years experience in all aspects of plumbing. Since 2007, the purpose and mission of Ready Plumbing has remained the same—to provide exceptional service with integrity and professionalism and to build longstanding relationships with our customers. No matter how small or how big the job is, we strive to complete each project in a timely-manner with an unmatched level of quality, competitive pricing and customer satisfaction.
"Work That was needed: Installation of sump pump in crawl space in order to remove water in crawl space. Estimate of $1665 was sent via email on 4/4/2024. Details were not presented on the invoice, but Mr. Dye with Ready Plumbing assured us that the final invoice would have details of work that was done. ½ payment was made prior to work starting and remaining ½ was made upon completion of the work. Work was completed on April 11. Unfortunately, we were not able to physically go under house and examine the work. Mr. Dye assured us that he would send pictures and the final invoice would detail the work done. A few days after the installation my husband was forced to go into crawl space because of an issue with the furnace and was able to see the work that was done. That is when we saw the work that was done. On April 16 we sent an email to Mr. Dye with our concerns. Portion of the email is listed below: We would like to discuss the sump pump installation that you did at 80 Princeton Trace. After examining photos of the work and making a physical examination of the actual area we have identified several areas of concern that need to be corrected. • The pump was placed in a bucket and should be placed in a sump basin with the appropriate lid. The paperwork for the pump (that Mr. Dye gave us) had instructions that detailed that pump should be placed in a basin with top. • The dirt that was dug out for the pump pit should be removed from under the house. • Surface in the crawl space should be graded so water would flow to sump pump pit (which should have been lowest part of the crawl space.) Plastic covering should be replaced (if possible). • Some type of peat gravel should be placed in the bottom of the sump pump pit. Mr Dye refused to make any corrections or discuss how we could come to any agreement without more funds."

"The main waterline to my home had a significant leak needing immediate repair. Cody and Dustin from Atlantis responded quickly. They determined a joint repair would totally resolve the problem rather than a total replacement of the water line from road to house. This saved me $1500 over a total replacement and they guarantee the result. This company and these two plumbers exemplify quality, competence and customer centric approach. I highly recommend Atlantis and particularly Cody and Dustin based on their excellent performance."

Medicare doesn’t cover walk-in tubs because the agency doesn’t consider them durable medical equipment. However, if you can prove it is a medical necessity, you may get reimbursement after installation.
You’re likely to have more luck with Medicaid, but benefits vary by state. Check with your insurance carrier for details.
Depending on your home’s water pressure, a walk-in tub takes six to eight minutes to fill. A fast drain with an average-size water volume drains in two to three minutes, but slower drains and larger basins can take up to 15 minutes.
Remember that the individual must remain in the tub while it fills and drains to avoid spillage when the door opens.
The average tub holds roughly 50 gallons of water. Exact capacities vary by product, typically between 40 and 80 gallons. In comparison, a standard bathtub typically holds 25 to 45 gallons.
If the IRS sees the purchase as a qualified medical expense, walk-in tubs may be tax-deductible. Alternatively, caregivers who install a walk-in tub may qualify for the Dependent Care Tax Credit.
