Featured FAQs
How long does it take to have a bathroom updated for accessibility?
This depends on the bathroom solutions selected and the size of your bathroom. A simple bath safety solution (i.e., grab bar) can be installed in one day.
Larger bathroom remodels, depending on the size of the project, will be determined at your final measure appointment. There, your Lifeway bathroom specialist, along with your construction supervisor, will obtain measurements needed for ordering materials, get signatures of approval on all scopes of work and materials selections, and offer a timeline for construction and a suggested start date.
What is the average cost to modify a bathroom for accessibility?
The price to update your bathroom can widely vary depending on the upgrades needed. We recommend scheduling a free consultation so that our bathroom experts can assist with recommending the best options for your needs and provide a quote on-site.
