Bathroom Remodeling for Retired Life

Upgrading and expanding tiny bathrooms can help you live at home during retirement by:

  • Installing grab bars
  • Replacing faucet handles
  • Increasing turnaround space
  • Adding a bench in the shower stall
  • Adding overhead lighting in the shower for better visibility
  • Installing bracing around the tub and toilet to prevent dangerous falls
  • Raising toilets
  • Separate apartments for caregivers

Small Stuff Makes a Difference in Retirement Remodels

  • Installing non-slippery tiles and replacement of worn carpet with new carpet of less than 1.5-inch pile can make wheelchair access simple
  • Minor upgrades like new levers instead of knobs and easy open windows and blinds, thermostats moved to easier-to-reach places, light switches near doors, and installation of security systems can make retiring at home independently more convenient

Front Doors and Ramps for Retirees

  • Flooring that isn't slippery can keep you safe
  • Additional lighting, flat thresholds and additional garage space make living at home in retirement easier
  • Wheelchair accessibility ramps to front doors, back doors and in garages can make it easier for aging adults to come and go

Updating a bedroom for yourself so caregivers can be with you while you live in retirement can be ideal. Ask about changes to just one bathroom or installation of an chair lift to make this possible.
