Why Bathroom Safety Matters

A safe bathroom is crucial for every home, especially for the elderly or those with mobility challenges. According to the CDC, over 200,000 bathroom injuries require emergency room visits each year in the United States, and a large percentage of these involve slips and falls. By incorporating thoughtful accessible bathroom features, you can significantly reduce the risk of accidents without sacrificing style.

Our tailored solutions ensure everyone—from aging parents to family members recovering from surgery—can navigate your bathroom with ease and confidence. Whether you need a single grab bar installation or a complete ADA-compliant bathroom remodel, BathPlanet of Metro NY has the expertise to deliver.

Smart Upgrades That Make a Big Difference

With our expertise in accessible bathroom remodeling, we offer features that blend seamlessly into your bathroom design while providing critical safety benefits for your entire family.

Walk-In Tubs for Easy, Safe Bathing

Our walk-in tubs feature a low-threshold door that swings open, allowing you to step in without climbing over a high tub wall. Built-in seating, hydrotherapy jets, and anti-scald technology make every bath comfortable and worry-free. Walk-in tubs are the ideal choice for seniors, individuals with arthritis, or anyone who wants a safer bathing experience in Nassau County, Suffolk County, or the greater NYC area. Read our ultimate guide to walk-in tubs for a detailed breakdown of features.

Barrier-Free Showers for Maximum Accessibility

A barrier-free shower eliminates the curb entirely, creating a seamless entry point that works for wheelchair users, those with walkers, or anyone who wants a sleek, modern look. Our curbless shower designs include slip-resistant flooring, built-in bench seating, and adjustable-height handheld showerheads for a fully customized experience. These roll-in showers are one of the most popular aging-in-place bathroom upgrades we install. If you're considering converting your old tub, see our post on tub-to-shower conversions.

Grab Bars: Simple Safety, Stylish Design

Gone are the days of institutional-looking grab bars. Today's bathroom safety grab bars come in a range of finishes—brushed nickel, oil-rubbed bronze, matte black, and chrome—so they complement your existing fixtures while providing essential support. Strategically placed near the toilet, inside the shower, and alongside the tub, grab bars can prevent dangerous falls.

Slip-Resistant Flooring for Peace of Mind

Wet surfaces are the leading cause of bathroom falls. Our slip-resistant shower bases and textured flooring options are engineered to provide secure footing even when wet. Pair this with our non-porous acrylic wall surrounds that resist mold and mildew, and you have a bathroom that is both safe and easy to maintain.
