What we build in
- Curbless or very low-curb showers
- Blocking in the walls for grab bars now or later
- Fold-down or built-in shower bench
- Handheld shower on a slide bar
- Comfort-height toilet
- Wider doorways and lever handles
- Better lighting and slip-resistant tile
Plan ahead
If you're remodeling anyway, adding blocking and a curbless entry costs little now and saves a second remodel later.
Typical cost

Questions about aging-in-place bathrooms
Can I use a renovation loan or other programs for accessibility work?
Renovation loans and HELOCs can cover it. Some veterans and seniors may also qualify for grant programs, and we're happy to provide the documentation they require.
