Grab Bar Installation in Lake Mary, FL
Six grab bars in one Lake Mary home, our largest single grab bar job, including a shower-wall bar on gray tile and a bar beside the toilet.
What the customer needed
In October 2025, a Lake Mary homeowner wanted grab bars at six different spots, the most we have put in on a single job. They asked us to bring a selection of bars so they could pick on site. Lake Mary started as a citrus stop on the rail line between Sanford and Orlando and didn't become a city until 1973; much of it was built in the late 1980s and early 1990s, long before most builders thought about grab bars.
The finished install
1. Finished. The shower-wall bar, below the mosaic band. 
2. Finished. The bar beside the toilet.
What we did
We supplied and installed all six bars; two of them are shown here. In the glass-door shower, a horizontal bar runs along the gray diagonal-set tile just below the mosaic accent band, so there is something solid to hold while standing under the water. Beside the toilet, a horizontal bar sits on the painted wall above the toilet paper holder, giving a firm push-off point for sitting down and standing up. The other four bars are not pictured. All six went in to our install standard below.
Our install standard
- Every bar secured into studs or blocking, or with fasteners rated for grab bar loads, so the installation holds 250 lb
- ADA guideline height (33 to 36 inches to the top of the bar) unless the customer’s needs differ
- Every hole sealed and every bar pull-tested before we leave
- Photos of the completed work, as proof for the customer and the warranty
