Getting a comparison quote from a local installer
A national brand's in-home price usually bundles the tub, installation, removal, warranty and financing into one number. That is convenient, but hard to compare. An independent local installer can often quote a similar tub, with an outward-swinging door, seat, grab bars and jets, and list each part separately.
To compare fairly with a Kohler quote, ask every company for:
- The tub's model, size, door direction and seat height.
- Tub price and installation price as separate lines.
- What happens to your old tub, walls, flooring and electrical work.
- The warranty: who honors it, for how long, and whether labor is covered.
- The price if you don't sign today. Be wary of same-day-only discounts.
Typical independent installation labor runs $700 to $3,0002. More tips are in our guide to why walk-in tub quotes are so high.
