Floor Plans for Senior Care Remodeling

  • Expanding narrow halls and doorways to make them easier for wheelchairs to go through can be vital for aging-in-place services
  • Installation of chair lifts for stairs or elevators can make it possible to stay in your own home for many years
  • One-level homes are a must for many senior citizens. We can help you fix up your house to age in place in comfort without having to navigate stairs

Remodeling Outdoors for Aging-in-Place

  • Siding repairs can end the hassle of painting, climbing ladders and more
  • Fixing your deck or patio can keep you safe, and deck remodeling such as adding ramps and widening access can make it easier to get around
  • Landscaping upgrades such as planting shrubbery and plants that are simple to maintain cut down on the need for gardening, weeding and watering

Upgrade the Bathroom for Retirement

Remodeling tiny bathrooms can help you live at your residence during retirement by:

  • Adding grip bars for stability
  • Replacing faucets so you don't have to twist and exacerbate
  • Increasing turnaround space
  • Adding a bench in the shower stall for safety
  • Adding lights in the shower
  • Installing bracing around the toilet and bath to prevent slips and falls
  • Raising toilets
  • Separate spaces for caregivers

Accessory Details to Make Life at Home Easier

  • Installation of non-slip tiles and replacement of impractical rugs with new carpet of less than 1.5-inch pile can make wheelchair access simple
  • Small upgrades like new levers instead of knobs and easier-to-operate windows, thermostats moved to easier-to-reach places, switches and outlets near doors, and installation of emergency 911 buttons can make retiring at home independently more convenient

Doors and Ramps for Senior Living

  • Flooring that isn't slippery can keep you safe
  • Added automatic lighting, flat thresholds and additional garage space make senior living and care for aging adults easier
  • Wheelchair accessibility ramps to front doors, back doors and in garages can make it easier for aging adults to come and go

Adapting a bedroom for you to stay in so your family can be with you while you live in retirement can be ideal. Ask about changes to a single bathroom or the addition of an chair lift to make this possible.
