  • What's the best flooring to use in a bathroom for waterproofing?

    In most cases the answer is Tile. There are many new products and processes for creating a waterproof floor in the entire bathroom. We can also create an entire waterproof room by tanking the walls to the floor and essentially making a space that would hold water if there wasn't a door. Our bathroom contractors in Ofallon, MO can help you make the best choice for your bathroom.

  • Is there a specific kind of tile that should be used for a bathroom floor if you're worried about falls?

    If you're worried about falls in the bathroom, you should use a tile that has a certain coefficient of friction to ensure that when it's wet, it's not slick. Our bathroom contractors in Ofallon, MO can help you make the right decision.

  • What type of flooring should I use in my basement?

    It really depends on the moisture content of your basement floor and how well your foundation is drained. In our area, we use sheet vinyl, vinyl plank, floating floor, and carpet, depending on the environment. For more info, contact our bathroom contractors in Ofallon, MO.

  • Can you drywall the basement ceiling since all of the wiring and plumbing are in the floor joist?

    We primarily drywall basement ceilings. It makes the space feel more connected to the main level and feel more like normal living space. If there's ever a problem with a leak or needing to get to a wire repairing the drywall as a simple fix if a hole has to be created. Contact Accessibility Home Improvements for help with your preferred home improvements, including stair lifts in Ofallon, MO.

  • What what type of paint should I use on my walls?

    In most cases we use a good flat paint in the main area. However, in a bathroom or wet area, you should use a minimum of eggshell as it will handle the humidity much better than flat paint. If you're struggling to come to a decision, our bathroom contractors in Ofallon, MO can help you make the right decision for your home.
