How do we choose the right roll-in shower or accessible bathroom layout?

Every client’s needs are different. We assess mobility, transfer method, caregiver support, safety risks, and the home’s layout to design a custom roll-in shower, seating, grab bar placement, and clearances that fit the person using the space.

Can you help adult children who live out of state manage modifications for parents in Michigan?

Yes. We can coordinate communication by phone and email, share scope details and photos, and keep family members informed throughout the accessible home modification process in Southeast Michigan.

Do you install wheelchair ramps and lifts for home access?

Yes. We provide accessibility solutions including wheelchair ramp installation, handicap ramp installation, and disability lift options for homes, based on site conditions, rise, space, and safety needs.

Is residential remodeling required to follow ADA rules?

Residential projects are typically governed by local building codes, not full ADA requirements. However, we apply accessibility best practices and safety clearances when designing barrier-free remodeling for seniors and people with disabilities.

What areas do you serve?

BFA, LLC serves Southeast Michigan including Oakland, Washtenaw, Wayne, Macomb, and Livingston Counties (excluding Detroit).

How much does it cost to remodel a bathroom to be handicap accessible?

Costs vary based on the existing layout, the accessibility needs, and the finishes selected. We provide a detailed, custom estimate after an on-site evaluation so the design fits the client’s needs and the home’s conditions.

Do you work with insurance adjusters and case managers?

Yes. We can provide estimates, documentation, and progress photos for insurance adjusters and case managers. Coordination and approvals are handled by the case manager/insurance team per the client’s process.

The tiny ADA bathroom

The tiny bathroom…we’ve all been there. But with a few tile tricks, there are ways to make it feel larger than it is. Using one tile on all the walls, floor to ceiling, can help open a space up. Switching to another tile partway up the wall can visually cut the room off, making it appear smaller. If you’re using both tile and paint on the walls, using similar colors will help smoothly transition from one space to another without hard stops. Tiling your shower all the way to the top of ceiling is a similar strategy that gives height to your bathroom.

Straight Stairlift by #HarmarSL600

Installed a Straight stairlift by #HarmarSL600 for the parents of a sweet couple in Plymouth, Mi. Now her mom can safely get up and down to her bedroom.

The Harmar Pinnacle is still the industry-leading stairlift. #BFA, LLC is proud to be Michigan’s #Harmar dealer. The unique no grease track means a low maintenance system, and the lowest profile in the industry means it doesn't take up a lot of space in the stairway.
