How BeingSauna Works
Complete transparency: how we match you with a licensed contractor, how contractors are vetted, and how we make money.
BeingSauna is a contractor-matching service for walk-in tub and accessible bathroom installation. This page explains exactly how we operate — where we make money, how contractors are vetted, and what happens from the moment you call to the moment the installation is complete.
The short version: You call. We connect you with a licensed contractor in your area. They visit your home free of charge, measure the bathroom, and give you a written fixed-price quote. If you proceed, the contractor installs your walk-in tub — usually in one day. We are paid a referral fee by the contractor network when a qualified call is completed. You pay nothing to call or to receive the assessment.
Step by Step: From Your Call to a Working Walk-In Tub
| Step | What Happens | Cost to You |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Call (833) 477-9060 | A real person answers 24/7. They confirm your address, understand your situation, and connect you with a licensed contractor in your area — usually the same day. | Free |
| 2. Free in-home assessment | A licensed plumber visits your home. They measure the bathroom, inspect the existing plumbing, check the subfloor condition, and confirm the unit that will fit your space. Takes 30–60 minutes. | Free |
| 3. Written itemized quote | You receive a written quote with: the specific unit model, all plumbing work included, warranty terms, and the final fixed price. Nothing verbal. Nothing subject to change. Zero pressure to proceed. | Free |
| 4. Installation day | Old tub removed and hauled away. New walk-in unit installed, plumbing connected, surround sealed, full system tested. Most homes are done in one day. | Per your written quote |
| 5. Walkthrough and warranty | Contractor demonstrates every feature. Work area cleaned. Written warranty handed to you before leaving. | Included |
How We Vet Contractors
Before any contractor joins our network, we verify:
✓Active state plumbing license — verified against the state licensing board database. License number is on file. We recheck when licenses come up for renewal.
✓Liability insurance — minimum $1 million general liability coverage. Certificate of insurance on file.
✓Workers’ compensation — required for any contractor with employees working in your home.
✓Background check — contractors who enter senior homes pass a background screening before referral.
✓Walk-in tub installation experience — we verify completed installation history before a contractor joins the network.
✓Written quote requirement — contractors in our network are required to provide a written fixed-price quote before beginning any work. Verbal quotes are not acceptable.
How BeingSauna Makes Money
Transparency matters on a site like this. Here is exactly how this works:
BeingSauna is a pay-per-call referral service. When you call (833) 477-9060 and the call meets qualification criteria (senior homeowner, genuine interest in installation), the contractor network pays BeingSauna a referral fee. This fee comes from the contractor — not from you.
This means our financial incentive is to connect you with a contractor who will do good work and earn your trust — because contractors who generate complaints leave the network, and contractors who do excellent work stay in it and keep calling volume high. Our interests are aligned with yours.
We do not accept payment from walk-in tub manufacturers to promote specific brands. We are not affiliated with any product brand. Contractors in our network may use different brands depending on what fits your home and budget best.
If Something Goes Wrong
If you have a problem with a contractor referred through BeingSauna — an installation issue, a dispute over the quote, or anything else — contact us at [email protected] and we will work to resolve it. Contractors with unresolved complaints are reviewed and can be removed from the network.
You also have direct recourse through your state’s contractor licensing board. Every contractor page on this site includes a link to the relevant state licensing verification portal.
