The Advantages of Walk-in Tubs for the Elderly and Disabled

At MaxHome, we understand the importance of feeling safe and comfortable in your bathroom. One of the ways we ensure this is through the installation of walk-in tubs. Walk-in bathtubs are particularly beneficial for people who are elderly or disabled.

Bathroom Safety Is an Essential Consideration

For many people, particularly those who are elderly or disabled, maneuvering around a traditional bathtub can be quite challenging. Stepping up and over the bathtub’s wall can be treacherous, and slips and falls are common—and can result in serious injury. So, bathroom safety is a crucial aspect, one which is often overlooked during bathtub renovations.

Walk-in tubs are designed to ensure easy entry and exit, thanks to their low-threshold, watertight doors. This means no more high stepping over tub walls. Our skilled bathroom remodeling team puts an emphasis on safety, especially when designing bathrooms for older adults and people who have mobility challenges. Walk-in bathtubs are a favorite choice due to their built-in safety features, like:

• Low-entry steps for easy access
• Secure handrails for added stability
• Non-slip flooring to prevent accidents
• Built-in seating

These features transform a regular bathtub into a safe haven for you and your family.

Transforming Bathrooms with Shower to Tub Conversion

You might be wondering, “What if my bathroom only has a shower?” No problem at all! We offer a shower to tub conversion service. This service enables us to replace a traditional shower with a safer and more comfortable walk-in tub, enhancing bathroom safety while ensuring an enjoyable bathing experience.

Unleashing the Full Potential of Your Bathroom

Bathroom remodeling is about more than just changing the look of your bathroom. It’s about maximizing its potential to serve your safety needs. By installing walk-in tubs, we create spaces where everyone can bathe independently and comfortably, regardless of age or ability. Bathing, a private and personal activity, can be performed without assistance with a walk-in bathtub, preserving dignity and boosting self-confidence.

Walk-in tubs offer numerous other advantages such as:

• Therapeutic benefits – Walk-in tubs with hydrotherapy options such as jets can help soothe aching muscles and joints.
• Increased home value – Due to their high demand, walk-in tubs can potentially increase the value of your home.
• Improved quality of life – By providing a safe, relaxing bathing experience, walk-in tubs contribute to overall well-being and happiness.
