Barrier free bathrooms for safety, ease, and comfort
Your home should remain a safe and comfortable place to spend time as you grow older. Bathrooms originally built with younger people in mind can be challenging—even dangerous— for older adults. In the Philadelphia area, the Stair Ride company offers affordable solutions for bathroom modifications in Philadelphia, to make bathrooms more accessible, safe and easy to use.
From grab bars and tub removals to custom tile and comprehensive accessible construction designed for wheelchair users, Stair Ride offers state-of-the-art, ADA-compliant safety solutions that help allow older users to continue enjoying life in their own homes.
Bathroom modifications in Philadelphia under your budget
How valuable is it to keep living in the home you love? Stair Ride can provide bathroom modifications and redesigns for enhanced mobility at surprisingly affordable prices. We also pride ourselves in short, efficient installations.
When you call us for an evaluation, we’ll help you focus on your most essential needs: Is stepping into your tub or shower a challenge? Are you concerned with slips and falls? Is your bathroom door wide enough to accommodate a wheelchair? Would carefully placed grab bars make you feel steadier and safer? Could a comfortable place to sit in the shower make bathing much easier?
Let Stair Ride help you make your home more livable with intelligent design solutions.

Barrier-free showers
For wheelchair users and other people facing mobility challenges, our showers are designed without a raised entry, making them easier to enter without constantly worrying about slips and falls. Being able to bathe easily and without assistance provides an important sense of personal independence and self-confidence.
Accessible toilets and sinks
Many people have never thought about how challenging it can be to have bathroom fixtures that are too low or too high to reach and properly operate. Stair Ride will help you understand what changes or adjustments may add ease and comfort to your daily life.
Non-slip flooring
For an added sense of security, bathroom floors that maintain traction even when wet can provide an extra level of comfort and confidence for many older homeowners.
Grab bars
One or more strategically-placed wall-mounted grab bars can make a surprising difference in how safe and comfortable it feels to move around your bathroom. Our advisors will examine your bathroom together with you to find and address any danger spots.

Frequently asked questions

When you trust us to help make your home safer and more comfortable to live in, we make a commitment to respecting your budget.

Q: If I am having a barrier-free shower installed will I also want to have grab bars?
A: Combined with an accessible shower, grab bars often add an extra layer of safety and security to your bathroom that can help you move about safely and worry-free. During your free bathroom evaluation, Stair Ride professionals will suggest the most efficient over all solutions based your personal needs, your budget and the existing design of your bathroom.
Q: I prefer to take baths rather than showers. Is it possible to make my tub safe?
A: Stair Ride understands that some people don’t want to give up the ability to soak in a tub. Stair Ride will work with our clients to install grab bars to help while getting in and out of the tub.
Q: Can Stair Ride really make a small bathroom accessible for a wheelchair user?
A: Our goal is to provide solutions that allow you to continue enjoying life and living safely in your own home. Sometimes that may even mean enlarging a doorway or widening a hall for wheelchair access. That’s part of what we can do, because it may be part of what you need. And we are happy to collaborate with interior designers when our customers have a particular style or appearance in mind.
Q: What is the minimum size for a handicap bathroom?
A: There are many factors that must be taken into consideration. Most important of them is that the ADA requires a clear floor space of at least 60 inches in diameter for the turning space within a bathroom. This is in addition to the space taken up by the sink, toilet, and/or shower/tub. Our free home evaluation will help you assess your particular needs.

I so enjoy my stair ride. The installers were quick and efficient. They explained the mechanics and reviewed the paperwork with me. Having the chair lift has greatly improved my mobility. Great company and product.

This company is great and they provide prompt service whenever it is needed. I have called them on a sunday when our chair stopped working and they came out to fix it within a couple of hours. The monthly cost is so reasonable, it really is a life saver for my parents.

We shopped around on price and learned Stair Ride offered the best price for value the first time I called. No games. I thought about ordering online and installing myself for my mom. But I was only saving a few hundred dollars for a lot of work and stress. And I would have no one to service the chair if needed. So they did great. Mom loves the stair rider.

Customer
Never went to the store, however, they were very efficient on the phone and in installing, and any questions we had. The Gentleman that installed was very mannerly and efficient also. I love mine, didn't think I would use it but it has helped me very much with my bad knees.

This past year my Mum needed a stair lift. From the first moment I spoke to Stair Ride, they were professional, courteous and efficient. The stair lift was my Dad's idea so we started the process. My Mum didn't want the lift so we stopped the process. Their team was so understanding! After a week or so, my Mum agreed and Stair Ride moved forward quickly. The install was great! They showed up on time. Made no mess! They were polite. Invoice came via email. The whole process was smooth during a time of huge transition for my parents. We can't thank them enough! Would highly recommend!

From the moment we called to have chair installed they went above and beyond for us. From the office staff to the technicians they treated us like we were their own family. I have nothing but high praises for this company.
Celeste Sabato

Very professional, quick, and responsive. They patiently answered all of my questions and were communicative throughout the entire process.
Katie Musselman
Customer
Our Stair Ride was an invaluable purchase. The technician who installed it was pleasant, adhered to CDC guidelines, and completed the job in a couple of hours. He made sure we were comfortable in using the lift, having each of us operate it before he left. The price was very reasonable, and we are completely satisfied with this company. We would recommend Stair Ride without hesitation!
