Newmarket is the hospital town for the north GTA, and a discharge from Southlake Regional Health Centre is the reason most Newmarket families first call us. The housing is a mix of older homes around Main Street and Fairy Lake, 1970s and 80s streets in Huron Heights and Bristol-London, the 1990s and 2000s subdivisions of Stonehaven, Glenway and Woodland Hill, and the seniors’ apartments and retirement residences near Davis Drive and Yonge.
Newmarket bathrooms, and what each one needs
- Main Street, Fairy Lake and the older core. Century homes with plaster walls and decades-old tile. The bar goes where a hand reaches, anchored and sealed to suit a wall that is rarely square.
- Huron Heights, Bristol-London, Gorham-College Manor. Ceramic-tiled tub surrounds, our standard surface.
- Stonehaven, Glenway, Woodland Hill, Summerhill Estates. One-piece fiberglass or acrylic units on hollow walls. We anchor into the wall behind the unit and the bar holds 500 lb.
- Seniors’ apartments and retirement residences. Weekday-morning bookings, one cart, nothing left behind, and a bar beside the toilet is usually the first request.
What we install in Newmarket homes
- Brushed stainless steel grab bars, 18-inch and 24-inch, straight or L-shaped, diamond-knurled grip, covered end caps, no rust. Rated for 500 lb.
- Anchoring matched to the wall: ceramic tile as standard, porcelain, marble and granite with the extra drilling they need, fiberglass and acrylic surrounds, concrete and block, and a WingIts anchor on drywall. Every hole sealed against water.
- Fitted on the same visit: toilet safety rails, hand-held shower wands with a grab bar mount, anti-slip treatment for the tub floor, bath benches.
- Five-year parts and labour warranty on every installed bar. Fully insured, WSIB covered.
How a Newmarket visit works
- Photos first. Two pictures of the tub or shower. We reply with the bars we recommend, where each goes, and a firm quote. Nobody comes to sell you anything.
- The walkthrough. On the day, before any drilling, the installer shows the bars and confirms every position for how the person actually moves. If the bars are for a parent, we work with them directly.
- One visit, one to three hours. Bars are ready to use 12 hours later, once the sealant has set, and the bathroom is left clean.
Crews come from our Toronto office, and most Newmarket installations are scheduled within days of an approved quote. See how our grab bar installation works and free and funded grab bars for seniors in Ontario.
Grab bar installation in Newmarket: common questions
Can you install grab bars before my parent comes home from Southlake?
Often, yes. Send two photos of the bathroom as soon as you know the discharge date, approve the quote, and we schedule the visit. If an occupational therapist has written up the positions, send that too and we follow it.
Do grab bars work in a fiberglass tub surround?
Yes. Most Stonehaven and Glenway homes have one. We anchor through the unit into the hollow wall behind with hardware made for that, and the bar carries 500 lb.
Do you install in Newmarket seniors’ apartments and retirement residences?
Yes. Buildings are booked on weekday mornings, everything arrives on one cart, no permit is needed, and telling management the date is usually enough.
How soon can you come to Newmarket?
Once we have your photos and you approve the quote, most Newmarket installations are scheduled within days.
