Remodeling a bathroom in a multigenerational home takes careful planning. The safety and convenience of all household members need to be taken into consideration. Tropical Plumbing and Bath, a specialist in age-friendly bathroom design, offers free in home consultations with a bathroom remodeling specialist who can assess the available space, assist with choosing fixtures and accessories, and provide a preliminary design plan. “The bathroom has become the primary focus of aging-in-place residential remodeling,” says Tropical Plumbing and Bath president Charlie Beeck, a Building Industry Association Remodeler of the Year. “Bathrooms in single-family homes and condos are being transformed into comfortable, safe environments. Small spaces are being redesigned to accommodate fixtures that represent the latest technology. Walk-in, barrier-free showers are typically replacing old-style stall showers and bathtubs. They are our most popular installation and all are custom designed to meet the homeowner’s specifications.” Beeck noted that accessory options include compartments for soaps and shampoos, seats and a variety of sprays in hand-held and rain-shower styles. Grab bars are routinely installed in showers and as needed throughout the bathroom, as well as nonslip surfaces. Special features for wheelchair accessibility can also be specified. Walk-in bathtubs are another specialty of Tropical Plumbing and Bath. Beeck introduced walk-in bathtubs in Hawaii more than a decade ago and has installed them in homes and apartments throughout Oahu, as well as at Kuakini Medical Center. As walk-in bathtubs continue to gain in popularity, new styles and accessories have become available.
Tropical’s quality-engineered, fully warrantied acrylic tubs include grab bars, seats, headrests, easy-turn lever-style faucets, and hand-held sprays as standard features. There are also models that provide hydrotherapy. A $1,500 discount is currently offered on walk-in showers and walk-in bathtubs, as well as on complete bathroom remodeling.
