Senior-Friendly Bathroom Remodeling Services in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Southern New Hampshire
What Features Should Senior-Friendly Bathroom Designs Include?
Senior-friendly bathroom safety is about ensuring there’s enough space to move comfortably, eliminating potential hazards, and creating a space that offers peace of mind for seniors who want independence and their loved ones. Popular features include curbless showers for easy entry, strategically placed grab bars that support proper body mechanics, non-slip flooring throughout the space, and adequate lighting to eliminate shadows. We also recommend lever-style faucets for easier operation, raised toilet heights, and comfortable shower seating. Our founder’s nursing background ensures we understand the biomechanics of safe bathroom use, helping us design spaces that truly prevent accidents.

Our labor comes with a five-year warranty, and specific product warranty details will be reviewed thoroughly.
What Are the Key Considerations for Making a Bathroom Wheelchair Accessible?
Wheelchair accessibility requires careful attention to clearance spaces, door widths, and fixture heights. Doorways should be at least 32 inches wide. The bath must provide adequate turning radius space and include curbless, roll-in showers with proper slopes for drainage. Vanity heights, mirror positioning, and accessible storage solutions are all customized to meet ADA compliance standards. Our founder’s nursing background provides invaluable insight into the needs of a senior bathroom makeover and anyone who uses mobility aids.
What Else Should I Know About Bathroom Renovations for Seniors?
Non-slip surfaces, grab bars, and easily accessible showering spaces are essential. However, don’t overlook the importance of good lighting to reduce glare and automation to avoid entering dark bathrooms at night while searching for a switch. Bathroom cabinets for senior living are another good idea to minimize reaching uncomfortably for toiletries.
