How Our Accessible Bathroom Remodeling Process Works
Safety Assessment & Accessibility Planning
Our CAPS-certified specialists conduct a comprehensive safety evaluation of your current bathroom, measuring clearances and identifying hazards. We assess mobility needs, review ADA guidelines, and develop a customized accessibility plan that addresses specific challenges while preserving the bathroom's functionality and aesthetic appeal.
- • Evaluate current bathroom layout and identify mobility barriers and safety hazards
- • Measure door widths, turning spaces, and fixture heights for ADA compliance
- • Interview family members to understand specific accessibility needs and preferences
- • Create detailed modification plan with prioritized safety improvements and timeline
Structural Modifications & Infrastructure Preparation
We begin modifications by reinforcing wall framing where grab bars and support fixtures will be mounted. Our team removes barriers like raised thresholds, widens doorways if needed, and prepares plumbing rough-ins for accessible fixtures while protecting your home with dust barriers and floor coverings.
- • Install blocking and reinforcement in walls for secure grab bar mounting
- • Remove door thresholds and widen openings to meet accessibility requirements
- • Relocate plumbing lines for comfort-height toilets and accessible vanity placement
- • Prepare electrical rough-in for improved lighting and accessible switch placement
Accessible Fixture Installation & Safety Features
We install all accessibility fixtures using precise measurements and ADA-compliant positioning. This includes mounting grab bars at proper heights and angles, setting comfort-height toilets, installing barrier-free shower systems, and positioning accessible vanities with appropriate knee clearance and reach ranges.
- • Mount grab bars at ADA-specified locations using heavy-duty fasteners and blocking
- • Install comfort-height toilets and accessible vanities at proper heights

Finishing Work & Compliance Verification
Our team completes all finishing work including slip-resistant flooring installation, accessible lighting placement, and aesthetic touches that maintain the bathroom's appeal. We verify all modifications meet ADA compliance standards and test each accessibility feature for proper operation and safety.
- • Install slip-resistant flooring with proper transitions and accessibility compliance
- • Mount accessible light switches, outlets, and controls at appropriate heights
- • Apply final finishes and trim work to integrate safety features seamlessly
- • Conduct compliance verification ensuring all modifications meet ADA standards
