The Meridian Company specializes in bathroom remodeling, including aging-in-place modifications, making it easier for seniors in Lansing, MI, and nearby areas to maintain their independence. These modifications enhance safety and increase accessibility and comfort in your own home.
We also offer specialized accessible shower installations to help you make your home more accessible.
Shower Modifications
Many people may have an idea in their mind that modifications for seniors will be clunky or unattractive. This is not always necessarily true! The plumbing remodelers at The Meridian Company can help you make stylish upgrades to your shower to make it safer and more accessible to elderly family members.
If your bathroom currently has a bathtub, you may consider replacing it with a shower or at least installing a walk-in tub. If you are considering installing a shower, a curbless (or zero-threshold) shower is a great option for both accessibility and aesthetics. Whether you decide to go with a shower or walk-in tub, sturdy grab bars are an essential modification to help with getting in and out. Finally, consider the design and position of the showerhead being installed. A lightweight, easy-to-grip shower head that can be mounted lower on the wall is ideal.
