Delta remodeling did an amazing job on our bathroom remodel! Kasia and her entire crew of workers were friendly and pleasant to work with. She was always available, and addressed any of my questions or concerns immediately through text or phone calls. Any design questions that I had for her were answered with photo examples to give a better idea of what it would look like. This made all of the decisions quick and easy. Janusz and his attention to details is very obvious in his work. We are very impressed by how everything turned out. Arek the electrician also did an amazing job, and he was very accommodating. We would definitely use Delta Remodeling again!

Overview
What a handicap accessible bathroom remodel in Highland Park includes
Delta - Bathroom and Kitchen Remodeling is a North Shore handicap and accessible bathroom remodeling contractor working in Highland Park, Illinois, on Colonial homes from the 1920s-1970s era. Curbless showers, grab-bar blocking, and comfort-height fixtures are layout decisions designed in from the first walkthrough.
Accessibility in a Highland Park bathroom does not mean institutional. Local projects often start with this condition: Mix of original tile work in older homes and builder-grade updates from the 1990s that look tired. The goal is independent daily use that still reads as a premium residential space, with universal design layered in from the layout stage rather than retrofitted.

What we build
Handicap and Accessible Bathroom Remodeling features we design and build in Highland Park
Every handicap accessible bathroom remodel is planned as one integrated project rather than a sequence of separate trades.
Curbless and roll-in showers
Level-entry bases with linear drains and slip-resistant large format tile, sized for a wheelchair turning radius where the plan calls for it.
Grab bar integration
Blocking installed behind the finish so bars can be placed correctly now or added later, in finishes that match the fixture palette.
Roll-under vanities
Vanities with open knee space, insulated supply lines and counter heights set to the person actually using the room.
Comfort-height fixtures
Toilets, sinks and controls positioned for transfers, with clear floor space verified against the door swing.
Shower seating and controls
Fixed and folding benches with handheld sprays and thermostatic valves reachable from a seated position.
Doorways and clearances
Widened openings, swing changes and pocket doors resolved against the surrounding framing during design.
Slip-resistant flooring
Tile and stone selected for wet-area traction without giving up the finish quality expected in the rest of the house.
Lighting and contrast
Layered lighting and tonal contrast at edges and controls, which does more for safe use than any single fixture.
Bathroom remodeling in Highland Park
The same design-build process when the project is a standard primary or guest bathroom rather than an accessible conversion.
Highland Park specifics
What makes handicap and accessible bathroom remodeling in Highland Park different
Diverse housing stock from lakefront estates to split-levels and raised ranches
Local condition
Accessible design for multi-generational living
Highland Park families with aging parents need ADA-compliant kitchens and bathrooms that serve every generation without looking institutional.
Worth planning for
Single-level living is worth protecting
Ranch and split-level homes in Highland Park already solve the hardest aging-in-place problem: no stairs between the bedroom and the bathroom. An accessible remodel builds on that advantage with a curbless shower, clear floor space, and in-wall blocking, so the house stays livable for decades.
Worth planning for
The original hall bath is too tight to age into
1920s-1970s Highland Park ranches were built with compact hall bathrooms sized for a tub-shower combo. Recovering usable space, removing the curb, and planning a 30-by-48-inch approach is a layout change that decides how much of the bathroom stays or gets rebuilt.
Worth planning for
A fall or surgery changed the timeline
When mobility needs arrive suddenly in a Highland Park home, the bathroom is the highest-risk room. Because the living space is already on one level, an accessible bathroom is often the single change that keeps the whole house working.
Delta has designed and built across the North Shore since 1987. See everything we build in this city on the Highland Park service area page.

FAQ
Handicap and Accessible Bathroom Remodeling in Highland Park: common questions
How long does an accessible bathroom remodel take in Highland Park?
The current planning range for accessible bathroom remodeling in Highland Park is 4–8 weeks for construction and 7–14 weeks from design through completion. Curbless conversions, drain or subfloor work, doorway changes, and transfer space affect the schedule. The project schedule is confirmed after design, selections, and scope are defined.
What does an accessible bathroom in Highland Park typically cost?
Accessible bathroom projects in Highland Park generally track the local bathroom remodel range of $20,000 to $55,000, with curbless shower conversions, in-wall blocking, and clear floor space shaping where a project lands. Costs depend on home type and scope. Lakefront estates and larger Colonials trend higher. Ranch and split-level renovations may require structural engineering for wall removals. Every project is priced after an in-home visit.
Do you handle permits for accessible bathroom work in Highland Park?
Yes. City of Highland Park Community Development Department, which now intakes building permits through the Civic Access Portal. The City also runs an Architectural Review Commission and a Historic Preservation Commission covering three local historic districts. Curbless shower conversions, drain relocation, and doorway widening commonly require permits and inspections. We submit the permit set, coordinate inspections, and close out the project so homeowners never deal with the building department directly.
Do you build handicap-accessible or wheelchair-accessible bathrooms in Highland Park?
Yes. The same project is searched as a handicap-accessible, wheelchair-accessible, ADA, senior, or aging-in-place bathroom. In Highland Park we design it as an accessible bathroom: a curbless or roll-in shower, a 30-by-48-inch clear approach, in-wall blocking for grab bars, comfort-height fixtures, and a roll-under vanity, planned into a room that still reads as a high-end residential bathroom rather than a hospital fixture set.
Does an accessible bathroom in Highland Park have to look institutional?
No. In a Colonial Highland Park home, curbless showers, comfort-height fixtures, blocking for future grab bars, and clear floor space are specified inside the same tile, stone, and lighting language as any premium remodel. The goal is independent daily use that never signals institutional or hospital aesthetics.
What is the difference between ADA-compliant and ADA-informed in a Highland Park home?
ADA compliance is a commercial code standard. Highland Park homes are designed ADA-informed, which pulls the relevant clearances, fixture heights, transfer zones, and grab-bar locations into a residential design sized to the actual home and household rather than a code-minimum public restroom.

We love our revamped kitchen! The company delivered on time, within budget, and with friendly, knowledgeable staff.
From planning to finish, a seamless process. Our bathroom is not just renovated, it's transformed. A++ service,
The bathroom remodel was a fantastic experience. The company's expertise and design suggestions created a stunning transformation.
Our bathroom is now a sanctuary thanks to their stunning design and flawless execution. A five-star experience.
I am extremely happy with the bathroom remodel. The team was professional, efficient, and delivered exceptional results.
I hired Delta to remodel my Kitchen and Dining room after evaluating several companies in this space including big names. From the start I found Kasia very transparent on pricing and services while also being realistic about what was possible within my budget. The crew was very professional, communicative about scheduling, provided options when challenges arose and ultimately were concerned about my happiness with the outcome. While it’s tough to go through a full Kitchen remodel I’m extremely happy with the the results. I took a very outdated look and layout and with the help of Delta made it a space I love to cook and entertain in. I was so happy with the results I hired Delta again to remodel 3 of my bathrooms.
We worked with Kasia initially on our master bathroom. By the time they had put tile in, I’d already decided I wanted to hire her for our second bathroom Reno, and any of our demo projects moving forward (kitchen was next)! Kasia is very straight to the point, and she is upfront about pricing from the get go. Any add ons we wanted she was able to give a reasonable quote right away, and any hiccups we ran into she was always transparent with. Chris, and the rest of her team, are very respectful when working in your home. They took measures to protect the flooring, along with cleaning up at the end of each day to help keep your home as put together as possible. Kasia has a great taste for design, and will give her honest opinion on picking out materials without being pushy. We received 4-5 different quotes on our project, and I absolutely think their pricing structure is reasonable for the area. Additionally, we had completed multiple major renovations with our house prior, between 2-3 other companies. Hands down, Kasia and her team provided the highest quality work, and attention to detail. I’m very happy with the way our projects turned out, and would 100% recommend!!
They did a beautiful job on our bathroom remodel! It looks exactly like we envisioned and they were very collaborative and communicative throughout the whole process
We purchased a new home and a neighbor who happens to be a trusted friend, insisted we use Kasia of Delta Remodeling. Our friend reported that her kitchen remodel project went smoothly without any issues, so we followed this advice and hired Kasia of Delta Remodeling, on the spot! What began as a kitchen and bathroom remodel, soon became a whole house project. Kasia had her work crew from every trade, busy from day one. We soon hired a designer to coordinate the many decisions along the way. We can’t emphasize enough, the fine results through fine workmanship, that has resulted in our home being a beautiful and comfortable place to live. Kasia and her team listened to us, making flexible changes along the way, and making our dream house come true! Very trustworthy and honest, a pleasure to work with from start to finish. We’re so glad we listened to the strong friend referral. We highly recommend Delta Remolding to bring you the beautiful finished product that you wish.
10 Stars! Total Spa-Bath Transformation & Mid-Project Heroes! Kasia and her team at Delta (Lake Forest) are the best. They just finished remodeling our master and guest bathrooms, and the experience was flawless from start to finish. Here is why they stand out: Excellent Communication: Kasia is incredibly organized. She asks great questions upfront to prevent issues and offered brilliant suggestions for both the design and functional utility of our spaces. Stunning Master Bath Transformation: They tackled a full layout change and a complete plumbing upgrade to drastically increase our water pressure. They built us a gorgeous, spa-like shower complete with a rain head and a handheld sprayer. Reliable & Clean Crew: Chester and his son Peter were punctual, respectful, and highly efficient at keeping the project on schedule. Best of all, they cleaned up thoroughly at the end of every single day—we never had to live in a messy construction site. Above & Beyond Service: We had a random kitchen pipe burst mid-remodel. Since the crew is highly skilled in plumbing, they fixed the emergency on the spot for a very fair and reasonable price. We loved our new master bath so much we immediately decided to do our guest bath too, and both turned out amazing. We can't wait to use Delta again for our basement project in two years!
Delta Bathroom and Kitchen Remodeling did a beautiful job on our bathroom remodel in Lake Bluff. The marble-look tile, mosaic shower floor, frameless glass, black freestanding tub, double vanity, lighting, and fixtures all came together with a clean modern finish. The space feels polished, functional, and easy to use every day. I would recommend Delta Bathroom and Kitchen Remodeling to anyone in Lake Bluff or the North Shore looking for a reliable bathroom remodeling contractor or kitchen remodeling company.
