Are you specifically looking for a person or business in Cambridge?

Either, whoever may have availability. And doesn’t even need to be Cambridge-based, just willing to travel to Cambridge, as I cannot move my bathroom.

How involved is the replacement? Multiple trades (tile, plumbing, carpentry, etc) or just a clawfoot type bring out the old, bring in the new?

Tile, plumbing, carpentry. Removal of a low quality rusted out 10 yr old alcove tub that fits within 3 sided tile walls. First floor.

SILA should do it, it probably won't be cheap. They will likely subcontract tiling (and carpentry?). I had a mixed experience with them, but I'm not sure who would have done better given the requirements.

I cannot help you directly, but for what it’s worth: I’ve been pretty successful with Thumbtack (in Somerville). It’s an app/service for finding all kinds of experts/handy people/whatever. Like, I’ve found people to do quality work for really reasonable rates.

(Writing the above makes me feel like a shill but like, I really have had a good experience with it. YMMV I guess, but maybe give it a shot.)
