The Good

  • Tub Features
  • Safety Precautions
  • Conversions Available
  • Expanding Service Area

Tub Features

DaBella offers bathroom remodels, but more specifically, the company helps clients in need of accessibility services access walk-in tubs. This is a separate service from the bathroom remodel division, but can be included in a remodel project as well. 

There are a number of different styles and even sizes of walk-in tubs, depending on what the customer needs. There are simple soaking tubs but also luxurious tubs that come with a wide range of therapeutic features. For instance, clients that suffer from chronically sore muscles, back pain, arthritis, or other complications associated with age could benefit from jetted tubs. Those looking for more basic solutions to hygiene can install a showering wand with the walk-tub to make cleaning easier.

Taking care of a walk-in tub needs to be easy and limited as those in need of walk-in tubs are likely unable to handle high maintenance bathing products. Most of the walk-in tubs that DaBella installs are acrylic and require little to no maintenance. A simple cleaning each week will be enough to keep the tub functioning properly and looking good.

The accessibility component is what draws most clients to having a walk-in tub installed. DaBella installs wheelchair accessible tubs as well that include outward opening doors, installed handrails for safe and simple access, and even ADA compliance seats to make bathing easier. These listed walk-in tub features are one of the key selling points for having DaBella install these products.

Safety Precautions

One of the main reasons homeowners are having a walk-in tub installed in to ensure the safety of a loved one while maintaining independence. DaBella takes this initiative seriously and ensures that safety precautions are taken in walk-in tub designs and installations. 

All walk-in tubs installed by DaBella feature low entry and exit thresholds as well as grab bars. There are a different walk-in tub manufacturers that DaBella works with so if safety features like nonslip materials on the bottom of the tub are important to the client, DaBella professionals can ensure that a tub make with these safety grips are in the tub. There is also the option to get a tub with nonslip grooved flooring for increased safety.

DaBella will work with its customers to make sure that the ideal tub make and model is selected prior to installation. Ensuring that the client standard is met is important to the DaBella team which is why the team will take the time to make sure all customer goals are met.

Conversions Avaialble

For those that do not feel like a walk-in tub is the solution for their particular needs, DaBella also offers tub-to-shower conversion services. Depending on the needs of the homeowner, a shower instead of a tub may be a more reasonable safety and accessibility compromise.

The expert installers and professionals on the DaBella team can complete these projects quickly and efficiently. For tub-to-shower conversions, there will be an initial consultation and estimation provided to the client. From there, if financing is needed, that will be discussed and agreed upon. Then the installation team will get to work making sure that all functionality and aesthetic desires are met.

Expanding Service Area

One of the most impressive aspects of the DaBella service as an operation overall is its geographic service area and continuous expansion efforts. Most contractors that operate in spaces like walk-in tub installations are more locally focused. DaBella has worked to reach as many homeowners as it can, growing its service area steadily over time. Currently, DaBella services the following 17 states:

  • Arizona
  • California
  • Colorado
  • Idaho
  • Maine
  • Massachusetts
  • Minnesota
  • Montana
  • New Hampshire
  • New Mexico
  • North Dakota
  • Oklahoma
  • Oregon
  • Texas
  • Utah

With a steadily growing geographic service area, DaBella continues to reach new homeowners looking for a reputable home improvement and upgrade provider.

The Bad

  • Warranty Specifics
  • Varied Financing Factors

Warranty Specifics

Homeowners that are having home upgrades made are generally invested in what type of warranties are offered on the products installed. These home upgrade solutions generally come at a steep financial investment, so ensuring that the products and workmanship are sound is critical. As a result, most contractors and providers will disclose warranty specifics. This gives clients peace of mind and demonstrates an overall belief in the service and products provided. 

While DaBella offers warranties on its walk-in tub service, there are so many contributing factors to what is covered and for how long. DaBella does not offer a blanket warranty that covers products or workmanship for a determined period of time. Instead, it will depend on the manufacturer of the tub and other key components. This makes it difficult to determine the quality of the DaBella warranty compared to its competition in the space.

Varied Financing Factors 

Financing is also something prospective clients are interested in as it makes some home improvement projects attainable when they otherwise would not be. Many home improvement companies offer financing to help make these projects affordable and budget-friendly. DaBella does offer financing to its clients, but again the specifics and options vary from one client to the other making it difficult to compare its financing capabilities with its competition. 

More specifically, what financing options are available, how payment structures will be handled, and the rates offered will depend on a number of contributing factors. There are no standard financing options and rates as DaBella takes a more individualized approach to this service.

The Bottom Line

DaBella has worked to provide reputable bathroom solutions since the company's inception. More specifically, DaBella offers reliable walk-in tub solutions for those looking to remain in their residence as long as it is safe. Clients that turn to DaBella for walk-in tub conversions can expect an emphasis placed on safety, style, therapy features, maintenance and cleaning needs, and wheelchair accessibility. With safety being at the forefront of the project, DaBella ensures that safety precautions are taken so that individuals using the bathroom can maintain independence and remain safe while in traditionally "wet" spaces. Clients that want to get rid of the tub altogether can also take advantage of the DaBella tub-to-shower conversion service. Despite being a "newer" home improvement company, DaBella has made impressive service area expansion efforts which continues to grow to this day. 

Despite offering a number of quality services and solutions to those in need of walk-in tubs, there are some key data points that remain unknown. For instance, warranty specifics are not publicly disclosed making it difficult to determine what is covered in a DaBella installation. Additionally, all financing information seems to vary on the specific individual even coming down to payment options.

Even with some missing or individualized aspects of the service that remain unknown, those considering having a walk-in tub installed should consider DaBella as the company has proven to provide a quality service and product while improving overall safety of the bathroom.
