Since then, Greens has become an icon in the industry and has earned a reputation in the Des Moines area for providing quality service with integrity and dependability. Our experienced and skilled technicians at Greens repair and install all makes, all models, and all brands of major appliances and heating & cooling systems.

"I scheduled service using their online tool. After my service window expired without a technician showing up, I called and was told the online scheduling tool wasn't up to date and let me schedule an appointment that was unavailable. They said they had called the previous night to let me know, but I have no missed call and no voicemail from them. They offered to reschedule me for a full 5 days after my initial appointment which I declined. They made no other effort to make up for their mistake."

Owner operated. Uses subs for labor & large jobs. Cost is determined by the job. No travel charges. No service charges. May contact through email.

"Andy's crew is very professional and did a great job. My home was difficult to get drywall into. They carried each sheet upstairs. Walls finished very well. Dedicated spray equipment created smooth application of knock down texture. Ceilings Looks great. No damage. No surprises. Priced right, but they weren't the cheapest option. On time. No excuses. They protected my property and cleaned up after themselves. As a property manager, I will definitely use Scott's again."

Walk in tub installations and replacements FAQs

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.
