Grab bars are key to bathroom safety

By

A key to bathroom safety for the elderly or those with mobility issues is the proper installation of grab bars.  When installing grab bars, Miracle Method Surface Refinishing professionals use ADA guidelines and the finest anchors to assure the maximum safety the bars can provide.  We recommend the installation of at least two bars of 24” to 36” length on two sides of the tub.

We also recommend the installation of a curved shower rod and a handheld shower nozzle.  While not bathtub safety related, these two items make use of the bathtub more convenient for the mobility impaired.

If you would like to learn more about Miracle Method’s grab bar installation options, use our online locator or call 855-212-7337 to reach your nearest Miracle Method professional. You can also visit our website for more information.

Pros and Cons of Granite Countertops

By

Granite countertops have become quite common in high-end homes over the years. Granite comes in a variety of color options and with so many unique patterns, granite countertops easily become the focal point of kitchen remodels. This natural stone product is also quite durable, which is another reason so many remodelers and interior designers like to use it.

However, granite is a rather expensive material that can cause the price of a kitchen remodel to skyrocket. There’s very little room for error when working with granite, and granite countertops require regular maintenance and care to ensure that they continue to look good.

If you find yourself debating whether or not to choose granite countertops for your kitchen, take a look at some of the pros and cons of granite countertops to help you make your decision.

Pros

  • Granite is heat resistant.
  • It is also resistant to cuts and scratches.
  • Natural stone patterns create a one-of-a-kind look.

Cons

  • Granite is a porous material, meaning there are small holes in this material that are prone to harboring bacteria.
  • Granite requires regular sealing.
  • Granite is the most expensive option compared to other countertop materials.
  • Granite can be stained or discolored by common items such as citric juices.
  • It can be difficult to match the seams between the slabs of granite.
  • Granite is difficult to repair if damaged which can leave costly replacement as the only option.
  • As a natural stone, a few granite varieties contain high levels of radiation and radon.

For those who have determined that granite isn’t the right option for their kitchen, Miracle Method offers a cost-effective alternative called Natural Accents. This high-tech coating offers the wonderful look of stone that many desire, but without the expense and maintenance that granite requires. Visit our website to learn more about this great alternative for your countertops.

How can I make a bathroom safer?

By

According to the CDC, every year one in three seniors ages 65 and older falls. These falls can lead to injuries such as hip fractures, head trauma and can even be fatal. Fortunately, these falls are largely preventable. One way to prevent falls is to make sure that your living space is equipped with the proper safety products, especially in the most dangerous room in your house–the bathroom! Miracle Method Grab Bars

There are many ways to make your bathroom a safer place. Having products like curved shower rods, hand-held shower nozzles and grab bars installed is one way to ensure your safety. Grab bars are especially important because they can allow you to feel more confident getting in and out of the shower.

Our Miracle Method professionals use ADA placement guidelines when installing these grab bars so that homeowners and caregivers can feel confident and secure in their new bathroom safety products. Miracle Method’s goal is to provide the utmost in safety so that our elderly customers can remain independent and living in their homes longer.
