Can you imagine not having the best mobility and trying to get into that tub? We were so happy to instal a walk in tub to help this home owner. We are all about bathroom safety, along with beauty and functionality. The bathroom is the most dangerous room in the house. Here are some stats for you:
Every year 200,000 people over the age of 15 visit the ER from injuries sustained in the bathroom.
Nearly two thirds of all accidents in the bathroom happen in or around the tub. 70% of falls happen in the bathroom.
Falls are the leading cause of hospital and long-term care admissions and 40% of fall victims never return home. The average cost of one fall is $19,000 and can financially ruin a family.

These tubs are amazing. I installed the best walk in tub with jets in my house. It is a great mobility aid.
