Accessible Bathroom Modifications
The bathroom is the most dangerous room in the house for seniors and people with mobility challenges. Slippery surfaces, high tub walls, and tight spaces create real fall risks every single day. Bathroom modifications from Accessible Solutions eliminate these hazards and make it possible to bathe safely and independently in your own home.
We are the leading provider of accessible bathroom modifications in Delaware and Southern New Jersey, and bathroom work is our most requested service category. From a simple tub cut to a complete roll-in shower build, we handle every aspect of the project — demolition, plumbing, waterproofing, installation, and finish work.
Our Bathroom Modification Services
Tub-to-Shower Conversions
The most popular bathroom modification we perform. We remove your existing bathtub — which is a fall hazard — and replace it with a purpose-built accessible shower. Options include low-threshold showers (with a small lip for water containment) and zero-threshold showers (completely flat entry for walker or wheelchair access). Every conversion includes proper waterproofing, a new drain, wall surrounds, and your choice of accessibility features.
Roll-In Showers
Designed specifically for wheelchair users and those with significant mobility limitations. Roll-in showers feature a completely curbless entry, reinforced non-slip flooring, a linear drain system, and enough interior clearance for a shower wheelchair or transfer bench. These require precise waterproofing — our installations use a full membrane system to protect your subfloor and framing.
Tub Cuts
A cost-effective alternative when a full conversion isn’t in the budget. We cut a section from the front wall of your existing bathtub and install a watertight, ADA-compliant insert. This lowers the step-in height dramatically while keeping your existing plumbing and tile intact. Most tub cuts are completed in a single day.
Walk-In Tubs
For clients who still want the ability to take a bath, walk-in tubs provide a safe alternative to climbing over a standard tub wall. These tubs feature a watertight swing door, built-in seating, grab bars, and anti-scald controls. Some models include hydrotherapy jets for pain relief and circulation.
Portable Shower Units
When a client needs immediate shower access and a permanent renovation will take time to schedule, we can install a temporary portable shower unit in a bedroom or other space. These self-contained units include a showerhead, basin, drain, and privacy enclosure.
What a Complete Accessible Bathroom Includes
When we renovate a full bathroom for accessibility, the scope typically includes:
- Tub-to-shower or roll-in shower conversion as the centerpiece
- Grab bars at the shower entry, inside the shower, and beside the toilet
- Fold-down shower seat or transfer bench
- Handheld showerhead on an adjustable slide bar
- Raised toilet or comfort-height toilet installation
- Anti-slip flooring throughout the bathroom
- Lever-handle faucets that are easier to operate than knobs
- Adequate lighting and accessible storage
Ways to Pay
Most families pay directly for bathroom modifications — we provide clear pricing upfront with no surprises. Financing options are available to spread costs over time.
If you have Medicaid or VA coverage, we accept those too:
- Delaware DSHP+ and New Jersey MLTSS both cover bathroom accessibility modifications
- VA grants (HISA, SHA, SAH) cover bathroom projects for eligible veterans
- We handle all paperwork and billing if benefits apply
Why Bathrooms Are Our Most Requested Service
Falls in the bathroom are the leading cause of injury-related hospital visits for adults over 65. A wet, slippery bathtub with high walls is the single biggest risk factor. Converting that tub to an accessible shower doesn’t just prevent falls — it gives our clients the confidence to bathe independently, which is fundamental to dignity and quality of life. That’s why more families in Delaware and South Jersey choose Accessible Solutions for bathroom modifications than any other service we offer.
Bathroom Modifications FAQ
What is a bathroom modification and who needs one?
A bathroom modification is any change to your bathroom that makes it safer and more accessible for seniors, wheelchair users, or anyone with limited mobility. Common modifications include tub-to-shower conversions, roll-in showers, grab bars, raised toilets, and non-slip flooring. Accessible Solutions performs full bathroom renovations in Delaware and South Jersey, handling plumbing, tile, waterproofing, and permits in projects ranging from $1,500 to $8,000 depending on scope.
How much does a bathroom modification cost in Delaware or New Jersey?
Bathroom modifications in Delaware and South Jersey range from $1,500 for grab bars and a tub cut to $8,000 for a complete tub-to-shower conversion with roll-in access, new flooring, and wall surrounds. Most projects fall between $3,000 and $5,000. Most families pay directly or use financing. If you have Medicaid or VA coverage, those benefits may apply — we can verify that for you.
Do you accept Medicaid for bathroom modifications?
Yes, we accept both Delaware DSHP+ and New Jersey MLTSS for bathroom modifications including tub-to-shower conversions, roll-in showers, grab bars, and raised toilets. If you have Medicaid coverage, we handle all pre-authorization paperwork and direct billing so you don't manage the process yourself. Most of our clients pay directly or use financing, but Medicaid is a welcome option for those who have it.
Can veterans use VA benefits for bathroom modifications?
Yes, we accept VA benefits for bathroom accessibility modifications. The HISA, SHA, and SAH grants can cover projects like roll-in showers, walk-in tubs, and full bathroom renovations. Accessible Solutions coordinates directly with VA case managers in Delaware and South Jersey to help veterans use the benefits they have earned.
How long does a bathroom modification take to complete?
Timeline depends on scope. Grab bar installation and a tub cut are completed in a single day. A standard tub-to-shower conversion takes three to five days. A full accessible bathroom renovation with roll-in shower, new plumbing, tile, and flooring takes five to seven days. Accessible Solutions works efficiently because we understand our clients in Delaware and South Jersey have limited mobility and need their bathroom back as quickly as possible.
What bathroom modification brands does Accessible Solutions install?
Accessible Solutions installs products from Kohler, Delta, Moen, and Ella Walk-In Baths, all industry leaders in accessible bathroom fixtures. We use Kohler and Moen for low-threshold and roll-in shower systems, Delta for grab bars and handheld showerheads, and Ella for walk-in bathtubs with hydrotherapy options. Every product is selected for durability, ADA compliance, and availability of replacement parts across our Delaware and South Jersey service area.
Can you modify a bathroom in an older home with only a bathtub?
Yes, older homes with tub-only bathrooms are the most common projects we handle. We remove the existing bathtub and replace it with an accessible shower, handling all plumbing relocation, waterproofing, drain installation, and wall surrounds. Most existing bathroom footprints accommodate a roll-in or low-threshold shower without expanding the room. Accessible Solutions is experienced with the unique construction found in older Delaware and South Jersey homes, including plaster walls and cast iron plumbing.
What is the difference between a tub cut and a full tub-to-shower conversion?
A tub cut removes a section of your existing tub wall and installs a watertight insert, lowering the step-in height for about $1,500 to $2,500. The rest of the tub stays intact. A full tub-to-shower conversion removes the entire bathtub and installs a dedicated accessible shower with proper waterproofing, new drain, and wall surrounds for $3,000 to $6,000. Tub cuts are faster and cheaper, while full conversions provide better long-term wheelchair accessibility.
Do bathroom modifications require permits in Delaware or New Jersey?
Plumbing changes and structural work typically require permits in both Delaware and New Jersey. Accessible Solutions holds a general contractor license and pulls all required permits, schedules inspections, and ensures every project meets local building code and ADA accessibility standards. This is a key difference from competitors who install grab bars only and cannot legally perform the plumbing, tile, and structural work that full bathroom conversions require.
What makes Accessible Solutions different from other bathroom remodelers?
Most competitors install grab bars only and refer out any work involving plumbing, tile, or structural changes. Accessible Solutions handles full bathroom renovations in-house, including demolition, plumbing relocation, waterproof membrane installation, tile work, and permits. We are a licensed general contractor specializing exclusively in accessibility, which means every design decision prioritizes safety and independence. One company manages the entire project from assessment through final inspection in Delaware and South Jersey.
