WARNING: To all of our readers here at Sarasota Grab Bars. High end European suction grab bars, not to be confused with cheaper online alternatives can be be quite effective bathroom safety devices in many situations if the wall conditions are right and if you are well aware of its limitations. However, it is extremely important to note that they are not effective for marble walls and could be very dangerous if used on that surface. Marble, even if kept neatly polished and clean is a porous material and will allow air to seep in underneath the suction cups of the bar thus weakening its grip. Mr. Grab Bar of Sarasota has had ample first hand experience with customers who have learned this lesson the hard way at the expense of a fall only to realize after that they should have had a professional grab bar installation specialist install permanent grab bars. This is often due to customers who have reservations about drilling into the marble in their shower stalls and feel that suction grab bars are a non-destructive work around. Our advice is to get a trustworthy qualified professional to install permanent grab bars into your marble wall.
