We recently completed a bathroom remodel where we enlarged an existing bath,

original small bathroom(photo on left) The orginal bathroom was small and you could barely fit walking in between the front of the sink and toilet.  There was also barely enough room for your feet between the toilet and the tub.

    The homeowner was now somewhat disabled and  using a walker and wouldn't be able to fit through the space and use the existing bathtub. 

    The solution was a bathroom enlargement using handicap accessable shower and enlarging the bathroom to create wider passage into the bathroom.

      The shower had no threshold, which would let a wheelchair roll into it. There were  short shower doors along with a curtain that would allow someone to assist them in showering  with a handheld shower from outside the shower.
