Customized Interior Solutions
Solutions to interior issues are customized specifically for that homeowner, although we do have some basic "guidelines" that we follow. Special features are designed into each project. Custom cabinetry can be designed and built to meet an individual's specific needs by placing drawers, doors, shelves where they need them most. Grab bars are designed into the build-out to be exactly where the homeowner needs them to be.
Promoting Accessibility
Cleaning is always an issue in the bathroom, especially around the commode area. We find that a solid surface materials is good to use in these areas. An added benefit to using solid surface is that the countertop, shower walls, and wall covering around the commode area can all match.
Promoting Safety
Plumbing fixtures are fitted with a tall neck and blade handles. The supply lines underneath are padded for protection from burns. The drain is set to the back of the bowl to give more room for the patients knees. Non-slip floor coverings are suggested throughout the home. Products that increase traction when wet are used in bathing areas such as bathrooms.
