What Portland bathrooms look like

Portland homes are mostly 1920s craftsman bungalows and 1940s ranches with small bathrooms, 1970s split-levels in the suburbs, and manufactured homes in Clackamas County. That matters because the tub is chosen for the room as much as the bather: a standard 60 inch alcove takes the Hydro Dimensions 3060 or Ella Ultimate as a drop-in, a small bath takes the Ella Mobile, and a bathroom used from a wheelchair is usually better served by a Bestbath roll in shower. Portland's Bull Run water is very soft so fixtures last, and the wet climate makes sealed wall systems the most requested option.

Help paying for it in Portland

• Veterans: the VA HISA grant, filed through the Portland VA Medical Center. Build the itemized estimate in four minutes with our planner.
• Medicaid waiver: Oregon Project Independence and the Aging and People with Disabilities (APD) Medicaid K Plan both fund home accessibility for eligible seniors; your local Area Agency on Aging (Multnomah County ADVSD, NorthWest Senior and Disability Services in Salem, Lane Council of Governments in Eugene) is the front door.
• Everyone: monthly financing, senior and veteran discounts on every order, and an itemized written price. Medicare rarely pays, and we say so up front.
• Local help: Multnomah County Aging, Disability and Veterans Services is the front door for state and county programs.

Permits and code in Portland

Oregon adopts the Oregon Residential Specialty Code, based on the IRC. Replacing a tub in the same location is generally a like-for-like plumbing change; adding a dedicated circuit for jets or a heated seat needs an electrical permit from the Oregon Building Codes Division or your city. Portland, Salem, Eugene, Bend and Medford issue their own permits; most counties use the state ePermitting portal. Our crews pull what is required and install to the manufacturer's spec. Our showers are ADA and ANSI A117.1 code-compliant models when that is what the job calls for.

Walk in tub or roll in shower for a Portland home?

About a third of Portland families who call about a walk in tub end up with a roll in shower, and they are happier for it. If the bather can stand, step over six inches and pivot to sit, and someone in the house wants to soak, a walk in tub with a heated seat is the right buy. If the bather uses a wheelchair full time, a low-threshold shower with a fold-up seat is faster to use, easier for a caregiver, and no more expensive. The middle path is a walk in tub shower combo.

Why Portland customers skip the TV brands

National brands quote $25,000 to $30,000 for a walk in tub installed in Portland, and the price is set at your kitchen table after a three-hour presentation. The same class of tub, installed by factory-certified crews with a lifetime shell warranty, runs $15,000 to under $20,000 with us, itemized, with no visit. See the full price investigation →
