Shower Replacement and Installation

Accessible Shower Installation

Accessible showers with low or no thresholds, benches, grab bars and handheld showers, designed around how you move.

An accessible shower should work for the person using it, today and for years to come. That can mean a roll-in or curbless entry, a bench or fold-down seat, grab bars placed where hands actually fall, a handheld shower on a slide bar and a floor that is easy to walk or roll across without slipping. Accessibility guidelines exist for good reasons, and requirements differ between a private home and a public building. In Nashville, many families come to us after a fall, surgery or the decision to stay in a home they love, and a well-planned shower can make daily life safer and calmer.

We start with a conversation about who uses the shower and what they need, then measure the bathroom and recommend a layout. Options include a curbless entry, a wide opening, a bench, a niche at reachable height, grab bars set into solid blocking, a handheld shower and controls placed near the entry. Floors use slip-resistant tile or textured base materials. We follow accessibility guidelines where they apply and talk honestly about what your space allows. We can coordinate with an occupational therapist if you work with one.

Designed around you

Opening width, bench height, reach and controls are chosen for the actual user, not a generic plan.

Blocking before tile

Grab bars need solid backing inside the wall, so we plan and install it before walls are closed.

Slip resistance

Floor tile and base materials are chosen for traction, with smaller tile and texture where it helps.

Honest about guidelines

Public accessibility rules and home needs differ, and we explain what applies to your project.
