Bathroom Trends: Adaptability, Aging in Place & Mobility Features

Your bathroom is more than just a utility space; it's where your day begins and ends. At Ackard Contractors, we've noticed that Edmonton homeowners want bathrooms that are attractive, adaptable, safe, and built to last.

Whether you're planning for retirement, welcoming older parents, or simply future-proofing your bathroom, this year's trends focus on flexibility, aging in place, and accessibility. Here's how these features benefit you.

Adaptability: An Aging-In-Place Bathroom That Grows Along With Your Mobility Needs

Life is unpredictable. Your house should be, too. A flexible bathroom layout suits you now and in the future.

Some popular adaptable features include:

•      Interchangeable showerheads to suit varying heights and tastes

•      Multi-level vanities suitable for kids, elders, and adults

•      Barrier-free showers that are beautiful and convenient to operate

These rooms aren’t only useful; they add long-term investment to your house.

Aging in Place: Home Comfort & Independence

Increasingly, homeowners are opting to age in place, remaining in their cherished residences longer rather than moving. It is a lot easier to do that thanks to a bathroom.

Some of our best thoughtful upgrades are:

•      Walk-in, zero-threshold showers that minimize fall risk

•      Slip-resistant floors that do not compromise on appearance

•      Comfort-height toilets

•      Grab bars that will look good against new fixtures

The aim is straightforward: to give you the freedom to live without constraints, without compromise on design.

Accessibility & Mobility: For All Lifestyle

Accessibility is all about designing something that is just easier to use, whether you have limited mobility, are getting over an injury, or just want to have a piece of mind.

Such as:

•      Larger doorways for walkers or wheelchairs

•      Roll-in showers without easy access

•      Lever-style faucets rather than knobs

•      Smart lighting to illuminate when it is dark

These enhancements make daily activities easier, safer, and more pleasant.

Safety Intersects Style

One of the greatest myths is that accessible bathrooms must look “clinical.” At Ackard, we have a specialty of combining sensible safety elements with classically beautiful design. We work hand-in-hand with you to tailor every element, so your bathroom is a retreat, not a hospital room.
