Make bathing safe again with a barrier-free shower built for real mobility needs in Wayne County, MI. Detroit’s brick bungalows went up in the 1920s, livonia and westland filled in with ranches after the war, dearborn grew around the ford plants, and canton kept building through the 2000s. Many Wayne County families are adapting a parent’s longtime home rather than moving them out of it, and the bathroom is almost always the first room that has to change.

Many Wayne County families are adapting a parent’s longtime home rather than moving them out of it, and the bathroom is almost always the first room that has to change.
A zero-threshold entry means recessing the shower pan into the subfloor so a wheelchair or walker rolls straight in with no lip to clear. Many Wayne County bungalows put the only full bath upstairs, which shapes what is possible. It is structural work, not an accessory you bolt on afterwards.
A grab bar is only as good as what sits behind the tile. We install solid blocking between the studs during framing so bars carry real weight at the angles people actually grab them.
Costs swing widely between a Canton subdivision build and a century-old bungalow on the east side. Accessibility work is often unplanned and urgent. We give you an itemised quote and financing on approved credit so a safe bathroom does not wait on a lump sum.
We work to ADA turning radius and reach ranges as a design guide — clear floor space, a 36-inch entry where framing allows, and controls reachable from seated height.
Fold-down or built-in benches, hand-held sprays on slide bars, thermostatic anti-scald valves, lever handles, and floor tile chosen for wet slip resistance rather than looks. City water is treated and consistent here, so scaling is less of a factor than in the outlying counties.
Many Wayne County bungalows put the only full bath upstairs, which shapes what is possible. The goal is a bathroom someone can keep using as needs change. We build in the blocking and clearances now so later additions do not mean opening the wall a second time.
Three things matter most: entry with no threshold to step or roll over, secure grab bars anchored into blocking, and enough clear floor space to turn. In Detroit and Dearborn the bath is frequently upstairs, so we assess whether a main-floor conversion makes better sense. Seating, a hand-held spray, anti-scald controls and slip-resistant flooring complete it. We assess the specific mobility needs rather than installing a generic package.
Often yes. Many Wayne County families are adapting a parent’s longtime home rather than moving them out of it, and the bathroom is almost always the first room that has to change. Where the existing footprint genuinely will not take a roll-in, a low-threshold entry with a transfer bench gets most of the benefit without moving walls, and we will tell you plainly which one your room can support.
Generally yes, because the drain moves and the floor structure is altered for a recessed pan. BSEED handles permits inside Detroit, while Livonia, Dearborn, Westland, Canton and Taylor each run their own building department. We handle the filing and build the inspection into the schedule.
Yes. Financing is available on approved credit. Accessibility projects often follow a fall, a surgery or a hospital discharge with little warning. Wayne County owners often phase work across two bathrooms, and financing makes that easier to sequence. We keep approval quick and give you the monthly cost up front.
