24/7 Express Handyman Service confirms the address, the zone rate and the dispatch fee, and takes a card, before rolling.
The ADA standard puts horizontal grab bars 33 to 36 inches above the floor, measured to the top of the bar. Homes aren't bound by the ADA, but that range is a solid starting point; adjust it to the height and movements of the person using it.
No. Towel bars are usually held by small screws or drywall anchors and aren't built to take a person's weight. Under the ADA standard, grab bars and their fasteners and mounting must handle 250 pounds of force applied at any point.
The ADA standard calls for 1 1/2 inches between the wall and the bar. That leaves room for a hand to wrap fully around the bar for a firm grip.
If a grab bar, towel bar or soap dish someone leans on is loose or pulling out of the tile, stop using it today. 24/7 Express Handyman Service can remove it and install a grab bar anchored to solid framing.
Every job 24/7 Express Handyman Service takes on is under $3,000 including labor, materials and any change orders (Utah Code §58-55-305); a change that would push a job over that line is referred to a licensed contractor, not written up as a second job. plumbing, electrical, HVAC, gas appliance / combustion system work is referred to a licensed trade.
