Miracle Method Updates Football Team Showers

February 12, 2014 By miraclemethod

After 50 plus years of use, the tile in the football team showers at Minnesota State University Moorhead was worn and dingy and the concrete floor was badly discolored. The facility was unattractive to both the team and to visiting recruits. To fix the problem the university was faced with removing and replacing the tile and resurfacing the floor.

Jeff Goebel, Moorhead’s Physical Plant Manager, estimated tile replacement alone would run in excess of $30,000.  “…and this didn’t include any costs for unforeseen problems once demolition started.  We all know that it can get pretty ugly once you start taking tile walls down,” according to Goebel.

Luckily,  Goebel visted the Miracle Method booth at a trade show, saw the company’s surface refinishing process and realized it could provide a viable and more affordable alternative to removal and replacement renovation.  He was also pleased to learn that the end result would also permanently seal the surfaces making them resistant to mold and mildew.

Miracle Method did the work over the school’s holiday break, completing the project in just seven days vs. an estimated three weeks for new tile and floor work.   Refinishing saved the university nearly 75% of the replacement estimate.  “By using Miracle Method we’ll be able to upgrade more showers and bathrooms in a shorter period of time.  We’re very pleased with the results,” adds Goebel.

Miracle Method provides innovative, affordable and durable solutions for colleges and universities in the US and Canada.  Visit www.miraclemethod.com/commercial or call 800-444-8827 to learn more.

The Most Dangerous Room in the House…Your Bathroom!

July 21, 2011 By miraclemethod

Did you know that slips and falls are the leading causes of injury and death for people over the age of 65?  And over 33% of these seniors fall each year!

While an accidental fall can happen anywhere, many falls happen because of slippery surfaces encountered while getting in and out of the bath.  A momentary loss of balance or mobility can lead to a life changing event. The bathroom can clearly be the most dangerous room in the house!

A University of Michigan study confirmed that nearly a third of people over the age of 60 experience difficulty maneuvering in and out of a bathtub.

What can be done to make a bathroom safer, especially for a senior who values independent living in his own home?

Fortunately, there’s an easy solution…and it’s called the Easy Step!

In less than a day, an existing conventional bathtub can be converted to a walk-in shower.  The process involves cutting down the side of a tub and inserting a special step.  When combined with the installation of grab bars, curved shower rods, hand-held shower heads, and slip-resistant surfaces, the Easy Step dramatically improves the safety and convenience of showering.

Miracle Method offers an affordable alternative that improves bathroom safety without requiring total reconstruction.  For more information, please contact Miracle Method at 1-888-444-8827 or visit our website at www.miraclemethod.com.
