Structural Remodels for Senior Care

  • Widening of hallways and entryways to make them wheelchair accessible for seniors can be necessary for aging-in-place remodels
  • Adding electric chair lifts for stairs or elevators can make living at home a real possibility
  • One-level living is a must for many seniors. We can help fix up your house to age in place in comfort without having to navigate stairways

Exterior Upgrades for Retirement

  • Brick or siding upgrades can save you the hassle of ongoing maintenance
  • Deck repairs can keep you safe, and remodeling such as adding ramps and widening access can make your outdoor space easier to navigate
  • Landscaping upgrades such as plants that are easier to preserve can cut down on the need for gardening, weeding and watering

Bathroom Remodeling for Senior Care

Remodeling tiny bathrooms can help you age in place by:

  • Adding grip bars for stability
  • Replacing faucet handles
  • Increasing turnaround space
  • Adding a fold-down bench in the shower stall
  • Adding overhead lighting in the shower for better visibility
  • Installing bracing around the tub and toilet to prevent slips and falls
  • Raising toilets to make it easier to sit and stand
  • Separate apartments for caregivers

The Small Stuff Matters in Age in Place Remodels

  • Installation of non-slippery hard floors and replacing of impractical rugs with new carpet of less than 1.5-inch pile can make wheelchair accessibility simple
  • Simple upgrades like doorknob replacement with levers and easier-to-operate windows, thermostats moved to easier-to-reach places, switches and outlets near entryways, and installation of emergency 911 buttons can make aging-in-place independently more convenient

Front Doors and Ramps for Senior Living

  • Tile and concrete that isn't slippery can keep you safe
  • Additional lighting, flattened doorways and garage additions make senior life easier
  • Wheelchair accessibility ramps to front doors, back doors and in garages can make it easier for aging adults to come and go

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