Why Homeowners in Guelph Choose Us for Accessible Bathroom Renovations
At Holloway Build Co, we've completed accessible bathroom renovations for Guelph homeowners for more than 10 years, helping people age in place safely and comfortably. Whether you need a curbless shower, grab bars, or a full ADA-height renovation, we handle the framing, waterproofing, and finish work so the space is safe, functional, and looks great.
Types of Accessible Bathroom Renovations
Curbless / Roll-In Showers
A curbless or roll-in shower has no raised threshold, so the shower floor sits flush with the rest of the bathroom, making it possible to wheel a shower chair or walker straight in without navigating a step.
We typically pair these with a wide entry, often 36 inches or more and a linear drain along one wall, which also gives more flexibility with tile layout than a center drain would. Bench seating is a common addition here too, either built-in or fold-down, so the shower works whether someone is standing, using a mobility aid, or sitting, and we'll also talk through handheld showerheads on a sliding bar for more flexibility in reach.
Grab Bar & Safety Installations
Grab bars and other safety features are some of the most impactful additions we make to a bathroom, precisely because they're often the difference between someone confidently using a space on their own or needing help.
We place these around the shower, tub, and toilet based on how the space is actually used, rather than a one-size-fits-all layout, and we'll walk through height and placement with you or your family member during the consultation. Non-slip flooring is another piece of this, and this category is also where we plan ahead the most, even if you don't need every feature installed today, we can rough in blocking now so bars can be added later without opening the wall again.

Walk-In Tubs
A walk-in tub has a door built into the side, so you can step in at floor level and sit down rather than stepping over a traditional tub wall, which is a common request for homeowners who still want to bathe rather than shower but need easier, safer access.
We'll walk you through seat height and built-in grab bar placement as part of the design, since these tubs are meant to support the whole bathing process, not just entry. Some walk-in tub models include additional features like hydrotherapy jets, and because of the door seal and specialized plumbing, these installs typically take more planning than a standard tub.
ADA-Height Vanities & Fixtures
ADA-height fixtures, vanities, toilets, and grab bars set to accessibility-standard heights and clearances, are about making everyday bathroom use easier and safer without necessarily changing how the space looks.
This often means installing a vanity with clearance underneath for a wheelchair or shower chair to roll under, along with lever-style faucet handles that are easier to operate than traditional knobs. Comfort-height toilets, which sit a few inches taller than standard models, are another common piece of this, they make sitting down and standing back up considerably easier, particularly for anyone with knee or hip concerns. We'll also review door widths and turning radius as part of these projects, since a fully accessible bathroom sometimes needs more than fixture changes, and these updates can be done as standalone changes or bundled into a larger accessible renovation.
Old tile, tight layouts, fixtures from another decade, we've seen it all and know how to fix it. Full renovations, custom showers, and everything in between, done right the first time.
