An accessible bathroom isn't a hospital room bolted onto your house. Done right, it's a roomy tiled shower you roll or walk straight into, a door that fits a walker, and a vanity you can actually use from a chair — and it looks like it belongs in a nice home.
We build accessible bathrooms for wheelchair users, people recovering from surgery, veterans, and homeowners planning ahead. The core of the job is a curbless roll-in shower: the floor of the whole bathroom is re-pitched so water drains without a curb, the wet area is tiled with a textured anti-slip floor, and the walls get solid wood blocking so grab bars, a fold-down seat, and a hand-held shower go exactly where you need them. Around it we widen the doorway to 32–36 inches, swap to lever handles and a comfort-height toilet, and set a roll-under sink if a chair is part of daily life. The finishes are the same tile, glass, and fixtures we put in any remodel — nobody walks in and thinks "medical."
A zero-threshold entry with a properly sloped floor and linear drain. Wide enough for a shower chair or a rolling commode — usually 5 feet or more — with a hand-held shower on a slide bar.
Doorways opened to 32–36 inches with offset hinges or a full reframe, and a layout planned around a 60-inch turning circle where the room allows it.
Bars anchored into blocking rated for real body weight, a fold-down or tiled bench, lever faucets, and a sink you can pull a chair under.

Who uses it, standing or seated, with what equipment, and what the therapist or VA paperwork calls for. We plan the layout around that, not around a catalog.
You get a simple plan showing the shower, the door swing, the bar locations and heights, and the price — before demo.
The tub or old shower comes out, the doorway is widened, blocking goes in every wall that could ever hold a bar, and the subfloor is sloped for the curbless drain.
Membrane and pan are flood-tested, then tile, seat, bars, glass or curtain track, and fixtures. We walk it with you — and with the person who'll use it — before we call it done.
ADA is a commercial code; it doesn't legally apply to your house. We use its measurements as the baseline — 36-inch doors where possible, 60-inch turning space, bar heights of 33–36 inches, a seat at 17–19 inches — and then adjust to the actual person, which the code can't do.
Usually yes. A standard 60-inch tub alcove becomes a 60-inch roll-in shower. The floor in that area is lowered or re-sloped so there's no curb, which is the part most remodelers skip.
Original Medicare won't. The VA's HISA grant, some Medicare Advantage plans, and Oregon Medicaid home-modification benefits can — our guide on Medicare and walk-in showers lists each one and what it covers.
A tub-to-roll-in-shower conversion with a widened door is usually 7–10 working days. A full accessible bathroom with a new layout runs three to four weeks. We keep another bathroom usable throughout when the house has one.
