Bathroom accessibility

Most Americans hope to stay in their homes through their golden years. But too many U.S. houses were built for young families—their builders never thought of accommodating Boomers all the way through retirement.

Now, while you’re renovating, is the time to build in accessibility, comfort, and safety. Whether for yourself or for a future home-buyer, universal design in the kitchen and bathrooms adds value to your home.

Life-long amenities make your home safe, easy to use, and comfortable

• Sturdy grab bars in all the right places
• Easy on, easy off toilet height. To provide maximum comfort, the toilet bowl should be about the height of a standard chair.
• A hands-free toilet
• Sinks that are easy to access from a wheelchair
• Wide doorways into roomy spaces
• Custom showers
• A handy shower seat
• A barrier-free roll-in wheelchair shower
• Walk-in tubs
• Convenient handheld shower fixtures
• Easy-grip faucet handles
• A hands-free electronic faucet
• A Jacuzzi tub or steam room to soothe away aches and pains
• Temperature pressure-balancing faucets to prevent accidental scalding.
• Therapist-advised modifications
• Learn how to make your bathroom safe.

New sink makes a big difference.

• It's hard to complain about a big sink. Order the largest you can afford.
• If you choose a stainless sink there are a number of different gauges to choose.
  • A 23-gauge is a good money saver that holds up well from dents, heat and is pretty quiet.
  • The thicker 18-gauge costs more and is fine if you're looking for quality products.
• If you're budget allows, and you choose a waterproof countertop, order an undermount sink for easy cleanup and nice appearance.

Flashy faucets

• A new faucet can make an old sink stand out. White or chrome with pull-out sprays look great and, for the money, say "new kitchen."
• View some of Moen's latest kitchen faucets.
• Kitchen faucets run from the simple to high end. Looking for upscale, yet practical option? How about a motion activated faucet or a foot-pedal faucet for hands free convenience?

Whatever you need, PDM is your one stop shop.

7 golden rules of bath remodeling

1. Go minimalist. Scale down variables for a soothing atmosphere. Contrast dark with light colors or woods for drama.
2. Use what you have. Make the most of existing space.
3. Stay consistent. Use the same materials and colors that appear in other rooms.
4. Think outside the box. Often you can use fine furniture or cabinetry that imitates antiques in the bath. A chest, armoire, even a tables and chairs can add just the flair you seek.
5. Choose timeless, high-quality materials. Your bathroom should last your lifetime.
6. Delineate his-and-hers areas in special ways: maybe different vanity heights or separate sinks.
7. A little luxury goes a long way toward converting a modest bathroom into a heavenly retreat. Consider heated floors, a steam generator, a soaking tub, a therapeutic showerhead. Learn more at My Home Ideas.
