Accessible Bathrooms

Walk-in and curbless showers

A curbless shower has no step at all. We recess the floor so tile runs from the bathroom straight into the shower, slope it to a linear drain and waterproof the whole wet area.

What is included

Recessed floor

We lower the subfloor so the shower sits flush with the bathroom.

Linear drain

A long drain at the back wall lets one continuous tile floor slope to it.

Whole-floor waterproofing

Waterproofing extends past the shower, not just inside it.

Glass panel or open entry

A single fixed panel keeps water in without a door to swing.

A good fit if

  • You plan to stay in your home for the long run
  • Someone in the house uses a walker or wheelchair
  • You like an open, seamless look
  • You want fewer edges and corners to clean

Questions we hear

Can every bathroom go curbless?

Most can. Slab homes need the slab cut and recessed, and raised floors are lowered between the joists. We confirm what your home needs at the walkthrough.

Will water get out onto the bathroom floor?

The floor slopes toward the drain and the glass panel blocks spray. Because we waterproof past the shower, the floor around it is protected too.

Curbless walk-in shower

Terracotta tile runs from the bathroom floor straight into the shower with no curb to step over. Travertine slab walls, a built-in niche and a single glass panel keep the space open and easy to clean.
