As Boston's population ages, we're helping families modify bathrooms for long-term comfort and safety. Our designs blend accessibility features seamlessly into period-appropriate aesthetics - no institutional looks in your Victorian or Colonial.
We install comfort-height toilets that respect original plumbing locations, and create walk-in showers with hidden structural supports for future grab bars. Floating vanities provide knee space while mimicking traditional furniture styles. For homes with children, we include convertible elements that adapt as needs change.
Every universal design project begins with assessing household needs and the home's structural limitations. In triple-deckers, we reinforce floors for potential lift systems. In condos, we maximize maneuverability within strict footprints. The result is beautiful today, functional for decades.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can universal design work in my small Beacon Hill bathroom?
Absolutely. We specialize in compact accessible layouts, using space-saving solutions like pocket doors and corner sinks to maintain circulation space.
Do accessibility features look obviously 'medical'?
Not ours. We use designer grab bars that double as towel warmers, and select fixtures that complement your home's era. Most visitors won't realize it's an accessible space.
