to complete most accessible restroom projects
Standard restrooms aren't designed for aging bodies. A high tub wall, a slippery floor, and nothing safe to hold onto turn a daily routine into a daily risk. A curbless shower or full wet room removes those barriers — restoring the safety, dignity, and independence that lets people stay in the homes they love across Vancouver, Burnaby, Coquitlam and the North Shore.

5-Star Rated
What Metro Vancouver families say
★★★★★
After a near-fall stepping over my old tub, I was terrified to shower alone. Rayden and the team built me a beautiful curbless shower in just four days — now I feel safe and independent in my own home again. I can't recommend them enough.
North Vancouver
★★★★★
We renovated for my mother-in-law who's moving in with us, and VAR walked us through the BC RAHA grant we had no idea we qualified for. The team was respectful, clean, and the barrier-free restroom turned out gorgeous — and far more affordable thanks to their grant help.
Burnaby
★★★★★
As a full-time wheelchair user, I've dealt with contractors who don't understand accessibility. VAR got every detail right — the roll-in shower, the turning radius, the grab bar placement, the lowered sink. The tile work and waterproofing are flawless. These guys actually know what they're doing.

Good Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a curbless shower conversion cost in Vancouver?
Typically $8,000–$22,000 depending on restroom size, drain relocation requirements, and tile selection. Every client receives a detailed written quote after a free in-home assessment — no surprises.
What is the BC RAHA grant and do I qualify?
The Repairs and Adaptations for Accessibility (RAHA) program from BC Housing provides eligible households up to $20,000 (lifetime) toward accessibility renovations. You generally qualify if you're a BC resident with a permanent disability or lasting loss of mobility and your household income is below roughly $146,270. Approval must be granted before work begins — we help with the timing and paperwork.
Do I need a permit for a shower conversion in Vancouver?
Yes — drain relocation requires a plumbing permit in BC. As licensed Red Seal plumbers, VAR pulls and handles all required permits and inspections as part of the job.
How long does a wet room conversion take?
Most projects are completed in 3–5 business days, depending on tile, waterproofing cure times, and any drain relocation work.
Can VAR help me apply for the BC RAHA grant?
Yes. We guide clients through the application process, connect them with an Occupational Therapist if needed, and schedule the project so grant approval comes before work starts.
