Converting cramped Back Bay bathrooms into accessible retreats requires creative space planning. We've mastered the art of widening doorways in load-bearing brick walls and installing curbless showers in pre-war apartments with uneven floors.
Our designs incorporate: custom millwork vanities with knee spaces that match original cabinetry, heated grab bars disguised as towel warmers, and silent ADA-compliant drains beneath restored mosaic floors. For Jamaica Plain's aging Victorian owners, we often repurpose butler's pantries into elegant accessible powder rooms with pocket doors.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you make my tiny Beacon Hill bath accessible?
We've successfully created 36" clearances in bathrooms under 40sqft by reconfiguring plumbing walls and using space-saving fixtures.
Do grab bars ruin my tile walls?
We install structural backing during renovation so supports can be added later without damage, often hiding prep work behind wainscoting.
