Structural Remodels for Aging-in-Place

  • Widening of halls and doorways to make them wheelchair accessible for seniors can be important for aging-in-place services
  • Installation of electric chair lifts for stairs or installation of elevators can make living at home a real possibility
  • One-floor living is a must for today's seniors. We can help you fix up your house to age in place comfortably without having to use the stairs

  • Deck repairs can improve safety, and deck remodeling such as adding ramps and wider access can make your outdoor space easier to navigate
  • Landscaping changes such as plants that are easy to maintain can cut down on the need for gardening, weeding and watering

Bathroom Upgrades for Senior Care

Upgrading and expanding tiny bathrooms can help you age in place by:

  • Adding bracing in the shower
  • Replacing faucets so you don't have to twist and exacerbate conditions such as
  • Adding space to turn around in
  • Installing a fold-down seat in the shower stall for safety
  • Adding overhead lighting in the shower for better visibility
  • Installing grab bars around the tub and toilet to prevent slips and falls
  • Raising toilet seats
  • Separate spaces for caregivers

Little Stuff Matters in Age in Place Remodels

  • Installation of non-slippery hard floors and replacement of old carpet with new carpet of less than 1.5-inch pile can make wheelchair accessibility simple
  • Small changes such as new levers instead of knobs and easy open windows and blinds, thermostats moved lower on the wall, switches and outlets near entryways, and installation of emergency 911 buttons can make aging-in-place more convenient

Entryway Remodels for Seniors

  • Flooring that isn't slippery can keep you safe
  • Added automatic lighting, unraised doorways and additional garage space make senior life easier
  • Wheelchair ramps to front doors, back doors and in garages can make coming and going less stressful when aging-in-place

Adapting just one area of your home for you to stay in so caregivers can be with you while you age in place can be he best option. Ask about remodeling just one bathroom or installation of an electric chair lift to make this possible.
