As we or our loved ones age there’s often an increased risk of injury at home due to accidental falls. As we get older, mobility can become an issue. If you or a loved one is struggling to complete simple tasks at home, it may be time to plan a living-in-place home remodeling project. Consider these popular upgrades that a DreamMaker remodeling professional can help with.
Grab Bars
Many homeowners find that adding grab bars in bathrooms is a great living-in-place home remodeling project. This bathroom update is particularly beneficial near toilets, bathtubs, and showers, so it can keep you or your loved one from losing their balance or falling. Unattractive grab bars are now a thing of the past. These days you can have sleek, modern-looking grab bars installed to enhance both the look and functionality of your home.
Anti-Slip Flooring
Another great living-in-place home remodeling option is anti-slip flooring. While often utilized in bathrooms, anti-slip flooring is perfect for kitchen remodeling as well. Slip-resistant flooring can be used in a variety of environments and are designed to look like natural flooring materials.
Curbless Showers / Walk-In Tubs
Having a remodeling professional install a curbless shower or walk-in tub can truly make your bathroom more functional and safe. Eliminating the shower curb allows you to enter the shower without having to lift your legs to get in. If you or a loved one struggles with mobility, replacing the traditional shower or bath with a mobility-friendly option might truly enhance everyday life.
