When it comes to creating accessible bathrooms, one size does not fit all. A physically disabled person may struggle with high ledges or slick surfaces, but an invisibly disabled person may not. The disability community is big - we're talking around 61 million in America alone, according to the CDC - so there's no singular way to make a home more inclusive.
Jenny notes, "We had to widen the doorway for me to even get into the bathroom, so for months, our bathroom had no door. I could never use the sink, and the shower entrance was modified very gently but not waterproof enough." This highlights the urgent needs of those with varying disabilities.
The couple made do for months as they waited for their old home to sell, and once it did, they set about renovating this bathroom with help from a professional contractor at Bertet Builders. They aimed to create a fully accessible space tailored to Jenny's needs with a carefully planned layout.
The bathroom's entire floor would be waterproofed, and a new vanity would allow for improved accessibility while ensuring the aesthetics were enhanced, moving beyond the previous neutral but monotonous design.
