Home safety is a top priority, especially for seniors, people with mobility challenges, or anyone recovering from an injury. One of the simplest and most effective ways to prevent slips and falls is by installing grab bars and other accessibility features. At Rio Verde Handyman & Home Services, we specialize in professional grab bar and accessibility installations in Cottonwood, Sedona, and surrounding areas.

Why Grab Bars Are Essential:

Falls are one of the leading causes of injury at home, particularly in bathrooms where surfaces can be slippery. Grab bars provide a secure support system, allowing individuals to maintain balance while entering and exiting showers, getting in and out of bathtubs, or using the toilet. Properly installed grab bars can significantly reduce the risk of accidents, giving homeowners peace of mind.


Custom Accessibility Solutions:

Every home and individual’s needs are unique. Our team offers:

  • Bathroom Grab Bars: Positioned to maximize safety while remaining unobtrusive.

  • Shower & Tub Support Bars: Adjustable and durable, designed for everyday use.

  • Handrails for Hallways and Staircases: Helping with mobility throughout the home.

  • Other Accessibility Modifications: From lever-style door handles to step-free access.


Professional Installation Matters:

Installing grab bars isn’t just about screwing them into the wall. Proper placement, secure mounting to studs or with anchors designed for this application, and ensuring the correct weight support are all critical. Our trained professionals guarantee installations that meet safety standards and are aesthetically pleasing.


Benefits Beyond Safety:

  • Independence: Reduce reliance on caregivers.

  • Confidence: Feel secure navigating your home.

  • Property Value: Accessibility upgrades can increase appeal for future buyers.
