We install grab bars the right way—anchored into studs or blocking, tested to 250 lbs, positioned where you actually need them. Brian's been doing this for 30 years in senior living facilities. He knows the difference between a grab bar that looks good and one that keeps you from falling.

Serving Atlanta Metro and Maryland. Most installations done same day or next day.

Why Choose Our Grab Bar Installation Services for Seniors?

Falls are the leading cause of injury for seniors. A grab bar in the right spot can be the difference between a close call and a trip to the emergency room.

We don't just drill into drywall and hope it holds. Every bar gets anchored properly, positioned at the right height (33-36 inches for most people), and tested before we leave. If it's not solid, we don't call it done.

Porcelain Tile Installation Policy

Due to the high risk of damage and the specialized equipment required, Install Mavens does not perform grab bar or wall installations that involve drilling through porcelain tile. Porcelain is extremely hard and brittle, making safe installation difficult and increasing the risk of breakage or costly repairs. For the safety of your home and our team, we recommend considering alternative installation locations or surfaces.

Our Installation Process

Submit request

Call (470) 243-8935 or book online. We'll ask where you want bars, what concerns you're dealing with (shower, toilet, tub), and give you a price over the phone. No surprises.

We schedule fast

Most grab bar jobs get done within 2-3 days. Emergency situations (hospital discharge, recent fall) get priority—we've done same-day installs when families needed it.

We install it right

Our installer shows up on time, finds the studs, anchors the bar properly, and tests it to 250 lbs. Takes 1-3 hours depending on how many bars you need.

You get a warranty

Every installation comes with a 1-year workmanship guarantee. If something's wrong, we come back and fix it. Simple as that.

" My husband fell getting out of the shower. I called Install Mavens the next morning. They had someone here that afternoon. The installer found the studs, put in three grab bars, and tested every single one before he left. Two years later, those bars are still rock solid."
