Heathrow homes

Heathrow is an unincorporated community in Seminole County, next to Lake Mary and a short drive from Sanford. Many homes here are in gated and golf-course neighborhoods, and many have been owned by the same family for years.

That's often when we get the call: someone wants to stay in the home they love, a parent is moving in, or a surgery is coming up. A bar at the shower entry and one beside the toilet are where most people start.

Many Heathrow bathrooms have large tile, stone, and glass showers. We help you pick a spot and a finish that suit the room, and we mount on the walls, never the glass.

Tile, stone, and what's behind them

Most Heathrow homes have drywall or cement board behind the tile, and builders rarely add blocking where a bar belongs. Natural stone and large-format porcelain need slow drilling with the right bit and no hammer mode. We fasten into studs or blocking when they're where the bar belongs. When they aren't, we mount with commercial-grade grab bar fasteners. Their maker rates them for up to 600 lbs in drywall with tile and builds them to exceed building codes and ADA guidelines.

What’s included at $185 per bar

Included: installing each grab bar, with all mounting hardware
Included: a placement walk-through before we drill, from techs who know the ADA guidelines (33 to 36 inches to the top of the bar, with the whole installation built to hold 250 lbs)
Included: a lifetime workmanship warranty and a free one-year check-up
Included: an itemized invoice listing each bar, where it went, and the cost, for HSA/FSA, VA, or Medicaid paperwork
Most grab bars bought for home use in Florida are sales-tax free (bars $100 or less).
Not included: the grab bar itself. Use your own, or we can supply one at extra cost.

Grab bars not included. Your final price is confirmed with your estimate.

Why it matters: the CDC reports that about one in four adults 65 and older falls each year, and wet bathroom floors and hard edges make the bathroom a common place to slip. A bar that’s anchored right is there when someone reaches for it. Our bathroom safety guide covers where bars help most.

Warranty, and who we are

Every bar we install comes with our lifetime workmanship warranty for as long as you own your home: if a bar loosens because of how we installed it, we fix it free. The bar itself is covered by its maker’s warranty, and damage, misuse, and pre-existing wall problems aren’t covered.

Heathrow grab bar questions

Do you serve gated neighborhoods in Heathrow?

Yes. Let us know the gate details when you book, and call or text (321) 204-8477 to check scheduling.

Can you install a grab bar on natural stone or large-format tile?

Yes. We drill slowly with the right bit and no hammer mode, then anchor into framing or with commercial-grade grab bar fasteners. Very old or already-cracked stone can still chip, and we'll point out anything we see before we start.
