Bathroom Remodeling to Help with Aging-in-Place

Getting ready to remodel your bathroom?

Excited about picking out colors, finishes, and tech for your new oasis?

As you remodel, think about the future of your home. If you love your home, you want to stay there as long as possible! Consider adding some aging-in-place design elements now that will be convenient and necessary when you’re older! 

Don’t panic at the idea of making your home accessible! Accessibility can also be aesthetically pleasing, and many of these upgrades won’t be obvious to your guests.

Here are some upgrades to consider:

  • Automatic, brighter night lights: Better bathroom lighting helps you see your path and helps reduce fall risks at night – a good nightlight can also keep you from waking up your partner! Automatic lights are also a great option, so you don’t have to search for a switch.
  • Grab bars: Wall-mounted grab bars are effective and safe and can match your décor, so they don’t look so out of place.
  • Raised toilet seats: Reduce the distance needed to sit and stand! Make cleaning easier by choosing a wall-mounted toilet – the floor is easier to clean because you don’t have to work around the base where it meets the floor.
