Shower Lip & Threshold Ramps
A raised shower lip makes getting in and out hard and unsafe, but a costly bathroom renovation is not always needed. Our modular interlocking tile system levels the step into your shower without glue, screws, or piercing the waterproof membrane. Custom-cut to your stall, the slip-resistant tiles lift out anytime for easy cleaning and can be removed cleanly whenever needs change.

Ways to handle a shower lip without a renovation
Explore how modular polyethylene tile kits eliminate curbs and raised shower thresholds across different bathroom layouts in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland.
Low Lip of 16–20 mm
A single layer of interlocking tiles brings the shower tray level with a low threshold, smoothing out stumbles and letting a walker, shower chair, or wheelchair roll straight in.
Taller Lip or Raised Curb
For shower curbs higher than 20 mm, multiple layers of tiles stack seamlessly to match your exact curb height, eliminating the need to tear out the shower pan.
Open Shower or Corner Base
Open showers and corner stalls use specialized edge ramp sections that provide a gradual transition on every exposed side while keeping water draining freely.
Raising the Whole Bathroom Floor
When a high threshold divides the bathroom from the hallway or the shower stall sits higher than the entire room, the tile system can raise the entire bathroom floor to create a seamless level surface.
Strata, Rented Homes & Short-Term Needs
Because the tiles sit over the existing floor with no glue, screws, or anchors, the system is fully removable. It leaves the original tile, grout, and waterproofing untouched when taken out.
Bathroom Door Thresholds
The same interlocking polyethylene system can also bridge raised interior bathroom doorways. For standard exterior entrance steps or sliding doors, see our door-step and sliding-door ramps (/threshold-ramps/) or outdoor ramps for steps and porches (/modular-ramps/).
How we fit it
Home2stay’s own trained accessibility technicians take care of measuring, custom-cutting, and placing the tile system for a perfect fit.
Measure Lip Height & Shower Shape
During your free in-home assessment, we measure the vertical lip height, drain position, and base geometry—whether square, rectangular, triangular, or rounded.
Choose the Layers & Kit
We calculate the exact kit configuration: single layer (KIT 1), closed cubicle with ramp transitions (KIT 2), or multi-sided open ramp transitions (KIT 3).
Custom-Cut & Fit to Your Stall
Our technicians cut the 100% recyclable polyethylene tiles precisely around drain contours and walls using a jigsaw and ruler, fitting them snugly with zero glue or screws.
Cleaning Walkthrough & Care Guide
We demonstrate how easily sections lift out so you or your caregiver can clean the tiles and rinse the original shower floor underneath.
