Bath safety grab bars are a good idea!


Bathroom falls are a leading cause of home death and injury, if you have parents that are getting older and starting to have a hard time getting around or if you yourself could use a something steady in the bath area a safety grab bar might be just the answer. Consider getting a couple of grabbars in the bath or shower area as well as near the commode. Safety grab bars are not only for the bathroom though. A safety grabbar can be helpful in the bedroom as something to lean on when getting dressed or near the most used entrance in your home where the floor may be wet from snow or rain. While we are on the subject of home safety consider having a handyman
check your stairway railings to make sure they are strong and in good shape, so their ready when you need them.

Workpros handy man would like to introduce you to another group of products we carry from the Onyx Collection. Let me just add this if you are looking for Premium Quality this is it. The Onyx Collection consists of awesome quality shower bases, lavatory sink tops, shower and bath wall systems. The shower and tub surround systems are nothing like you will see from Bathfitter or Rebath those are way more inferior, they feel like plastic, although I believe that most of there systems are acrylic. Our Onyx Collection systems are more
of a solid surface like Corian and way more thicker. These systems are great for converting bathtubs to a walk in shower, you can actually get a better product than those "other guys" and pay less, in most circumstances. Here is a color list. Stay tuned more to come
