Accessible Walk-In Shower and Bathroom Remodel in Poway, CA


The Challenge | Outdated Design and Lack of Accessibility
Before the remodel, Cinda’s bathroom had:
- An
outdated bathtub that was difficult and unsafe to use.
- Limited storage and
poor layout for daily routines.
- Dark, heavy finishes that made the space feel smaller and less welcoming.
She needed a bathroom that was safer, more functional, and designed with accessibility, but without sacrificing style.
Our Solution | A Safe, Stylish, and Senior-Friendly Remodel
After consulting with Cinda, we developed a custom renovation plan that focused on comfort, accessibility, and modern elegance:
- Removed the old bathtub and built a
curbless walk-in shower with a
marble bench for comfort.
- Installed custom cabinetry, including a vanity and separate makeup station, tailored to her daily needs.
- Chose a herringbone tile layout on the shower walls for dynamic style and visual interest.
- Used Corsai white marble on the countertops and shower bench for a sophisticated, durable surface.
- Separated the toilet area from the vanity using a
half-wall and pocket door for privacy and better flow.
- Upgraded finishes to a bright, clean color palette with
matte black hardware for modern contrast.
- Added built-in storage cabinetry and improved lighting throughout the space.
- Installed grab bars and planned the layout for easy mobility and safety.
